After almost 14 years of agonising waiting, Jurassic World is finally landing on audiences, and so what better time to revisit the original three movies for a little refresher course? Sure, this new take will have only a cursory amount in common with what came before (featuring the same setting as the first movie, if no major existing characters), but given how divisive the second and third movies are in particular, there's a good chance you haven't seen them in quite a while. Few will argue with the sheer wonder of the original 1993 film, though even that slice of movie magic is privy to its fair share of weird moments, some which are intentionally so and others which don't quite fit. The sequels, however, crunched the WTF gauge into fifth gear with an increase in goofiness and poor tonal choices, making them often best viewed as car crash curios above all else. Regardless of whether or not Jurassic World is ultimately seen as reviving the franchise, from Jeff Goldblum's eccentricity to absurd plot points, hidden symbolism, gags you missed as a kid, undeniable goofiness and unexpected brutality for family movies, here are 31 WTF moments from the Jurassic Park franchise to date...
