For many, it was a jaw-dropping experience, as they had never seen such realistic CGI before. The film's depiction of dinosaurs was highly praised, and it left a lasting impression on audiences of all ages. GenXers, who were in their teens and twenties at the time, were particularly excited about the film's innovative use of technology and its ability to bring dinosaurs to life in a way that had never been done before. Baby Boomers, on the other hand, appreciated the film's storytelling and the sense of wonder it evoked. Both generations found the film to be a thrilling and unforgettable cinematic experience.In 1993, GenX viewers were treated to two groundbreaking films that showcased the potential of CGI: Jurassic Park and Star Wars. While both films were praised for their visual effects, they employed CGI in different ways. Jurassic Park was lauded for its realistic depiction of dinosaurs, achieved through a combination of practical effects and CGI. Steven Spielberg's team used animatronics for many scenes, with only a few brief CGI sequences. This blend of techniques created a convincing and immersive experience that left audiences in awe. On the other hand, Star Wars had already established itself as a pioneer in visual effects since its debut in 1977. By 1993, the franchise continued to push the boundaries of CGI, incorporating advanced digital technology to create spectacular space scenes. The use of CGI in Star Wars was more extensive, allowing for the creation of intricate and fantastical environments. GenX viewers appreciated the realism and subtlety of Jurassic Park's CGI, while also marveling at the imaginative and expansive use of CGI in Star Wars. Both films set high standards for visual effects and demonstrated the versatility of CGI in storytelling.Jurassic Park (1993) became a record-breaking success and highest-grossing film of its time, surpassing Spielberg's own E.T. (1982), and grossing $914 million worldwide in its initial release. It consistently set and broke records in the US and international markets, becoming the first film to gross $500 million overseas. Despite being surpassed by Titanic in 1998 (2.2 Billion USD worldwide), Jurassic Park continued to break records with subsequent re-releases, ultimately grossing over $1 billion USD. As of 2025, it remains among the 50 highest-grossing films of all time and is Spielberg's highest-grossing film. John Williams composed the Jurassic Park film score, aiming to convey a sense of "awe and fascination" as well as suspense. The soundtrack was first released on May 25, 1993, followed by several re-releases, including a 20th anniversary edition in 2013 and a John Williams collection edition in 2016.
