Who will ever forgot the wondrous, iconic moment from Jurassic Park where Alan and Ellie (Laura Dern) gaze their eyes upon a real-life Brachiosaurus for the first time?

It's a stunning sequence filled with genuine awe that the audience itself also feels, and it's given a rather neat homage in Fallen Kingdom. When the team first arrives on Isla Nublar, they're quickly met by a Brachiosaurus walking through the dilapidated remains of Jurassic World.

Emulating the shot selection of the original film almost to the beat, we see the collected party staring in amazement at the gigantic, majestic creature.
