TRIVIA---when Steven Spielberg and writer David Koepp met to discuss the sequel plot to JURASSIC PARK, Koepp recalled, "Steven said, 'I've got it! I've got it! This movie is about hunters vs. gatherers.'" Spielberg then suggested to Koepp that he watch two movies for inspiration: the 1925 dinosaur movie THE LOST WORLD and the 1962 John Wayne movie HATARI! about a team of big game hunters in Africa. Koepp said, "HATARI! probably influenced us more than any dinosaur movie did." Appropriately, the sequel was titled THE LOST WORLD: JURASSIC PARK.

Writer David Koepp said, "HATARI! probably influenced us more than any dinosaur movie did."
