Life is full of surprise. The biggest one so far for Twilight and her friends is when Pinkie becomes the owner and founder of the foremost company in the field of genetic research: EquesGen Tech. Now, after months of concerning isolation in her office and long trips away from Equestria, Pinkie has returned with an invitation for her friends to preview what she describes as “the most amazing, incredible, tremendous, super-fun, wonderful, terrifically humongous Theme Park in all the world, EVER FOREVER”. However, there are others who are keen on trying to cash in on this new project. Traitorous employees, shady business stallions, blood-sucking lawyers and corporate spies are all obstacles Pinkie must face if she hopes to make the park a success in this crossover of Michael Crichton & Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park.
Like the story. I'm a huge fan of Jurassic Park. Can't wait to see where you're going.
One thing, though, did you intend to change to italics halfway down the page?
636840 No, I made a mistake with the coding, so everthing became italicized. Thanks for catching that: Fixed it. ^^
Anyway: thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying it so far! :D I was a tad worried about what everyone would think once I published it. I knew there was another JP fic on the site, but I never got around to reading it until this morning, and I did notice a lot of similarities between that fic and chapter 1 of this one, and I didn't want people thinking I copied off that one.
E rated? So no Velociraptors dismembering ponies? No Dilophosauruses making sure somepony meets a very unpleasant end?
636924
OH! Nononono! There will be! I promise! I'm just not going to go into a lot of detail with it! Most of that stuff will happen "off-screen" and let it be implied, and be more suttle, like in the film. To be honest; I wasn't entirely sure what I should put it at in terms of rating, so I left it at E for now. I had a similar problem with whether the fic should be Dark or not. ;) Just...please don't cry, Flutteshy!

I'm liking this so far! Plz continue, TP!
will the Robert Murdock pony be drunk at any point during the breakout?
637084
Maybe...it all depends! So I guess we'll just have to see.
637191
so are you basing it off the movie or book?
don't care which one you choose but it'll help me set up the shrines
637197
Actually, I'm basing it off both the novel and the movie (though more off the movie, than the novel). ;)
Also, Thanks, D4E. I'm glad you like it buddy. ^^
637204
so pinkie isn't gonna buy the farm?
I was wondering when someone would cross ponies with Jurassic Park. Loved the first movie, the other two not so much. *Adds to read later list*
Thumbs up
637218
What, the rock farm? Nah, brah! That's still her parents farm...well, their land, as they've probably turned the farm into a mining facility, and moved to a mansion or something. ;)
637242
Well I hope you like it, when you read it. ;) There IS another JP fic called Jurassic Pony, but instead of dinos it has dragons. I've never personally read it, but if you like this sort of thing I'd say go check it out.
YOU MUST BE KIDDING ME
I myself am currently on the track to writing a Jurassic Park/MLP fic. It's still in the heavy planning stages, though. Still, from what I can gather, your story is with dinosaurs. My version is going to have everything MLP'd, so there will be changelings and manticores galore. I have yet to read yours, I am currently doing homework (sh, don't tell anyone) but I am going to read it later. If your like to dislike ratio is anything to show, it'll be great.
637333
no dude i mean kick the bucket.
john Hammond dies in the book.
pinkie is john hammond
does she die?
637354
Oh, I'm sorry. Well, I hope you enjoy my work, regardless.
EDIT:
637367
WHAT?! Have Pinkie DIE?! Nononononono! I won't be killing off ANY of the mane cast. ;) This ain't a grim dark fic! :P
637380
Nothing to be sorry about, I actually look forward to have something to compare mine to, if you're okay with that. You beat me to the punch, but really, no need to feel bad. As the saying goes, great minds think alike.
637398
Hey, it's not like I own Jurassic Park...heck, I didn't even come up with the title! XD And since there was a JP fic before my own was posted, I'd love to see yours some day, HC! ^^
i think EqquGen Tech sounds like a better name.
637423
Hmmm...you may be right...but think I'll just stick with EquestGen for now. Maybe I'll change it...who can say?
637406
Why thank you! Don't expect it very soon, though, again, I'm still in the major planning stages. Also, I just read your prologue, and it was excellent! Kudos to you!
Also, kind of random, but I'm offering this to a ton of people, if you'd like your OC in my story then just send me a short description and picture of him/her. I'm trying to make it so that the audience gets to interact with the story, as I'll be writing it as I go.
Anyways, can't wait to see where yours goes.
637460
OH! So you're that guy who wants OC's for that story. I'll definately think about it!
637470
Wait, you've heard of me before?
Hm, anyways, I wanna see what you'll do for our dear Mr.Malcom.
637503
Yes, you can thank Dinos4Ever for telling me about you. ;)
Anyway; i'm still playing around with Ian Malcolt's character, so you'll just have to see. ^^
637722
Hey, Benji. ^^ I hope you'll enjoy the story!
Lotsa !'s in there at the end.
Just as a question, is this an adaptation of the book or the movie?
The book was a lot more gorey than the movie, even with the parts that weren't too... graphic.
Like the scene where a baby raptor is skidded over to an adult to distract it... and the adult eats it.
Human character at the time (I forget who it was) gags, but uses the distraction to get away.
Yeah... book was great, but not 'E' rated.
I love this movie, and I think I'll really like the story! Keep going! Just make sure not to make it a copy of the movies/books.
Also watch your grammar. You seem to capitalize random words like "stallion" and "zebra".
637906
Like I said before: it takes elements from both the movie and the book, but is mainly based on the movie. ;)
638053
Don't worry, I have no intention of simply copying the movie, and do hope to add my own little twists to it.
And yes; you are right about the capitalization of "Zebra", since they are a "people" (so to speak). However, I do not believe "stallion" should be capitalized, as that's more-or-less the ponyfied word for "man", and you don't usually captilize "man" or "men" unless it's a title.
Regardless; thank you all for the kind words, and support! I hope to update the fic sometime next week. (lots of stuff to do) So keep posted!
EDIT: Just re-read your post, goo, and I realized my responce made little sense. Okay: so I capitalize "Zebra" because they are a people. "Stallion" should not be capitalized, and I was sure I fixed all that before posting the fic (or at least I thought I fixed that). Anyway; I'll be sure to fix that when I have the time. ;)
638188
Ah, didn't see that.
I should probably read all the comments next time...
Well, here's another story for me to favorite. Paleo-geek Twi FTW!
My only caution is as to how close your going to make it to the original. Mirroring the original/JP is to be expected as this is a crossover, however if it lacks many or any original scenes it will quickly seem repetetive of the original. The prologue was a nice, original piece, while Chapter 1on the other hand is a scene plucked directly off of the original but with ponies. Not sure if that was overly clear or made sense, but it's getting late so that's all my sleepy mind can manage right now.
Now, seeing as there seems to be a discussion about what other JP/MLP crossover have been done, I can say that I've say that I've seen another one on her that is also with dinosaurs. I can't remember the name though, but it is here.
EDIT: I remember the name now. It's "My Little Pony: Paleo Park" that I was thinking of.
638371
Yeah; funny thing about Chapter 1... ^^' I actually started writting a novelized versiion of the movie some years ago, after having read the original novel, and not liking the ending. It never really took off, and and I only got one chapter into it before deciding it was stupid idea and giving it up. When I decided to start writting an MLP fan fic of JP, I stubled upon the aforementioned document and thought "heh, why let it go to waste?" Don't worry; I don't intend for it to be complete rip-off of the movie/book with no originality. ;) That's kinda' one of the reasons I made the prologue; to give some background as to how Pinkie became the owner of the company, and to foreshadow events in the fic.
I hope I've put some of your worries to rest.
I love it. I loved Crichton's novel, and this looks like it's gonna be really good.
Okay guys: sorry if I've gotten you worried with the lack of updates. I had finals to do, and that kinda' took priority over this, but I will update the story very soon! Promise! I hop to have the next chapter up next weekend, so stay tuned.
This is an interesting read my friend. i Wonder why i never looked at this before? I cant wait for the next chap ta come up. Oh one more thing. are the events going to center around the movie or the book, the book has more action in it in my opinion and lots of extra characters.
681822
Like I said: the fic is mainly based on the film, with some elemts taken from the book. ;)
I love Jurassic park.
More please!!! 
i'm loving this!

Thank you, La Crow!, I'm glad you are enjoying it.
And I am truly sorry to everyone who has been waiting patiently for the next Chapter: I hit a rough spot, and was having trouble putting words to paper. I have now gotten past that part, and I'm trucking along nicely for now. Expect the next Chapter soon-ish (Monday or Wednesday). Again: thank you all for your kind words, and I hope you enjoy the rest of the story as it comes.

Why thank you, Dino-Mario!
Okay guys, I know it's been taking awhile for the next chapter to come out, and I appreciate your patience. The thing is that I've hit a bit of a snag, and I'm trying to fix it. What this means is that while it may take a bit more time, you'll probably have 2 chapters added and ready for your reading. ;)
I was thinking, ohhh, the day before yesturday. How would one do this? Should it be funny or serious (I was hoping serious but this could be fun too)?
Now I can find out. Thank you.
NEW CHAPTER! THE STORY LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Gregoria, they'll cut the funding. That'll slow him even more!"
Should be her instead of him. But otherwise a very good chapter! I love how similar it is to the movie and it makes me want to make some pop corn to eat while I am reading. So keep up the good work!
1338745
SONNOVA!- How did I miss that?! >< Fixed it! ^^' Thanks for catching that...
1338787
My pleasure, and I look forward to the progress you make.
Just be more careful and you should be fine.
Wow i thought this was dead. i'm glad ta see i was wrong. Also is Dollar going to end up like the lawyer in the movie? or will he be like the lawyer in the book and have the tour guide take his fate?
1339410
Interesting question. I guess you'll just have to wait and see, won't you.
1339701 Maybe but there is another way it will happen in another chapter before that scene so if i see what i hope i see or if i don't see what i hope to see then i'll know.
That aside, I really like this chapter, and I'm glad to see this is not dead

[Insert tourettes moment here] There! Fixed! ^^'
