Surviving the Dino Menace: A Jeff Goldblum Thought Experiment
Ever wondered how your life would look if a T‑rex decided to take a stroll down your street? With Jurassic World Dominion hitting theatres this week, this silly question suddenly feels a bit more real. And the only person we really want to hear about this is the original Timelord himself: Jeff Goldblum.
Jeff’s Lucky Take on Dinosaurs
- “Geez, I’m a lucky guy.” The 69‑year‑old was pretty honest. He admits his luck doesn’t come from any special diets or secret survival hacks, just a lot of random fortune.
- “Sometimes I’ve crossed the street when I shouldn’t have.” In Jeff’s quirky universe, a near miss from a street line could be second only to a dinosaur encounter.
- “I’ve never gone near big animals… never had an encounter.” That’s the bravery (or cowardice?) lining the joke.
- “Our dog Woody is a great big standard poodle—ten times faster than I!” Even his canine companion is faster than his own pace.
- “Maybe something about me is lucky, so I’ll do okay.” He ends on a hopeful note—just in case a prehistoric predator does show up.
Why Jurassic Pride Matters
- “I was so excited—could have knocked me over with a feather.” A playful nod to how excited he was in 1993.
- “Working with Laura Dern and Sam Neill was life‑changing.” He credits his co‑stars for turning a movie into an unforgettable experience.
- “It was the landmark moment of my career.” Jeff thinks Jurassic Park was critically important, even if he later “focused less” on its market status.
- “Seeing people excited after two decades feels life‑enhancing.” The fans’ enthusiasm and his own personal joy make the experience feel magical.
