So, in keeping with Katherine’s dinosaur enthusiasm, and her fondness for T-Rex, we watched Jurassic Park<\/a><\/em> this afternoon.<\/p>\n

Hrm.<\/p>\n

She did pretty well.  She handled the initial “dude gets eaten by a velociraptor in a box” scene okay.  She handled “feeding the velociraptors” scene okay.  Things began to get a bit dicey when T-Rex was escaping, but she did okay there …<\/p>\n

Things started to cascade from there, and she found the v’raptors particularly troublesome.  We ended up FFing through a few scenes later on — Crocodile Dundee gets ambushed, the Kitchen scene — and Kitten did okay with the final “T-Rex charges in and ‘saves the day'” scene.<\/p>\n

She opined at the end that she’d been okay — it had been a little scary, but she’d sat through a whole PG-13 film before (Stardust),<\/em> so she was okay.<\/p>\n

Later, she was most jinky about the little fin-backed poison-spitting guys, and we’ll see how things go overnight.<\/p>\n

(As a side note, the movie holds up pretty well — the fx are still quite nice, the music triffic, the 1993 dialog and plotting a bit 1993 Spielbergian, but still overall enjoyable.)<\/p>\n

UPDATE:  After some (not unusual) trouble getting to sleep, she slept the night through just fine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
