JP is awesome!!! The book was awesome. JP3 will be awesome...
Though there are lots of differences with the books. Since I know lots about JP I'll point some out, also for the benefit of those who have read the book and not seen the movie or vice versa.
SPOILER ALERT
If you plan on reading the first two
books or seeing the movies there are some spoilers in the following passages.
Jurassic Park: Grant is not Ellie's boy-friend in the book. Also
Gennaro is a much better character and survives. Wu dies, whereas in the movie he left before the action happened. Muldoon lives. Hammond dies *shock* A character not in the movie, Ed Regis, dies as well. Plus the ones from the movie, Nedry and Arnold. Also, lots more things happen when Grant, Tim and Lex make their way back to the control center eg they go down a river and have confrontations with T Rex and Ceradactyls. Compy scene from TLW movie was in the book.
The Lost World: Nowhere near as good as the original, but anyway, pretty damn different from the book (book was better IMHO)
Richard Levine and Jack Thorne weren't included unfortunately, replaced by Nick Van Owen(photographer guy) while Eddie Carter (I think that's his name, dude who lost his head to T Rex) stayed..or at least until he was killed. He died in the book also, via raptors. Bad guys were completely different. In the book. Dodgson, the guy who got Nedry to steal embryos (or at least try to) is the main baddie and gets killed. He has two accomplices also, King and George Baselton, replacing Roland Tembo and his big hunting team and also Hammond's son (can't think of his name)is not included in the book.
I think Jeff Goldblum is a brilliant actor and so is Sam Neill, and they should BOTH star in JP3. I can't wait.
