To honor the anniversary of the original Jurassic Park film’s release, the subreddit dedicated to all things Jurassic Park has announced a subreddit Gift Exchange!

Sign ups close on June 10th and you will receive the relevant contact information the follow day, which is the 1993 release date of Jurassic Park in theatres! Gifts should be sent no later than the 25th June, and gifts should have a value of around $15.

The Jurassic Park subreddit is a great side of the fandom and this is really worth getting involved in. The Reddit Gift Exchange is something that has run for years now and has proven to be very successful, not only among redditors but also among celebrities like Bill Gates, Stephen Colbert and many more.

What a great way to celebrate Jurassic June! Will you be getting involved? Let us know in the comments section below and be sure to check out the /r/JurassicPark subreddit if you haven’t already!

Escape from Jurassic Park – 1993 animated series detailed

Posted on by Chris Pugh

It’s no secret that Jurassic Park nearly had a cartoon –  over the summer William Stout revealed many pieces of concept art, which unsurprisingly went viral. Despite the great artwork, and the franchise lending itself to the concept perfectly, the cartoon was sadly canceled in the early stages of production. Other than these glimpses of concept art, little was known about the mysterious series. Until now.

1993: Hot off the heels of Jurassic Parks success, the now defunct Universal Cartoon Studios began to explore a continuation of the story via an animated series. The series was meant to be tonally similiar to the film, utilizing an art style that appropriately matched. The story revolved around the essential characters and dinosaurs of Jurassic Park, alongside many fun new additions – drawing further story inspiration not only from the film, but from the book.
