The original JP is my favorite movie ever, been lucky enough to see it four times in theater (twice back in 1993 when I was six, once back in 2010 during a special revival screening and a 3D screening during the re-release). Seen it endlessly on VHS, DVD and Blu-ray over the years. Regarding the sequels, neither is nearly as good but they have their moments. The Lost World I actually think is kind of underrated and has a lot of cool parts in it. I like it far better than the third for sure.

I hope a fourth gets made but I want it to be a well-crafted effort, not a rush job. I'm kind of relieved it got postponed because I was worried with a June 2014 release that it'd be rushed and turn out poorly, so with more time they can really make the effort to churn out a great sequel and series finale.

As many times as I've seen JP at home, it has a very special magic to it when it's seen in a theater environment that no home theater setting can ever re-capture. It was just as awe-inspiring and exciting for me to watch again in theaters as it was back in 1993 when I was six. I had no problem paying to see it again in that sort of setting that really enhances the feeling, IMO.

I also think the 3D conversion looked great. I was unsure how it might look but I think the team did a great job of it. I thought it added an element of immersion and depth to the film and it didn't feel gimmicky. I definitely will see it again in 3D when I can.
