When asked what was it about the Jurassic Park franchise that it endured for so long, BD Wong exclaims, "The childhood fantasy. Dinosaurs are always going to be wonderfully fascinating to us, so it combines that childhood fascination and the threat of interacting with dinosaurs in modern day. The formula, you can't beat it. Nothing comes close to it. There's nothing in the history of the Earth that we can compare it to, that we can juxtapose in the same way. The idea that today's technology could bring about such a juxtaposition is fascinating, and terrifying, to people. We don't really see it happening, in our heart of hearts, but it feels so weird. So, we are transported and there's this kind of joy and fear thing that happens. One of the signifying elements of the brand is that moment of seeing the dinosaurs for the first time at the beginning of the movie. That moment of fascination of beauty, brilliance, life is a part of the brand. That will happen in every movie in some way or another. That is a complete one hundred eighty-degree shift of what happens forty-five minutes later in the movie where everyone is running and being eaten."
