This Jurassic Jeep has us jumping for joy

When Jurassic Park hit theaters in 1993, the special effects changed filmmaking – and the public’s perception of dinosaurs – forever. And while those effects still hold up today, I’ve also come to respect the way the non-dino production design of the movie has endured. Take this latest build from Jerry Builds Bricks. Just a quick glance at the gray Jeep Wrangler with slight red highlights probably put the John William’s theme into your head. You don’t even need to see the logo to know this vehicle is park property. And, while LEGO has released official versions of the film’s classic vehicles, Jerry has raised the stakes with a build that packs plenty of clever technique into an 8-stud wide package. Note the inverted cheese slope wheel wells, the gentle slope on the sides of the vehicle’s hood, and the way the roll bar structure flows right into the slightly angled windshield. It might not be as impressive as cloning a dinosaur – or even rendering one in the computer – but I’d still call it movie magic.
