Jurassic Park is a 1993 blockbuster adventure movie directed by Steven Spielberg, based on the novel of the same name by Michael Crichton.

References to Jurassic Park in The Simpsons

In "Bart Gets an Elephant", an elephant is delivered to The Simpsons' house. When Marge opens the curtain, the elephant's eye stares at her. This is a reference to the scene in Jurassic Park where the Tyrannosaurus Rex peeres through the car window to the children inside.

In "Sweet Seymour Skinner's Baadasssss Song", Principal Skinner tells Bart he's working on a novel about an amusement park with dinosaurs called Billy and the Cloneasaurus, which Apu rightfully condemns as plagiarism.

In "Itchy & Scratchy Land", The Simpsons are brought to Itchy & Scratchy Land by helicopter, just like the visitors of Jurassic Park. The image on the helicopter even resembles the logo on the Jurassic Park helicopter. Also like the film, the attractions in Itchy & Scratchy Land get out of control and create havoc.

When Homer's toaster transforms him back to prehistoric times in "Treehouse Of Horror V", the Jurassic Park theme music briefly plays as he says, "I've gone back in time to when dinosaurs weren't just confined to cages."

In "When You Dish Upon A Star", the water in the celebrities' glasses starts shaking when crowds of enthusiastic fans are coming near, just like the water in the paper cups when the Tyrannosaurus Rex approaches the tour vehicles.

In "Monty Can't Buy Me Love", the Jurassic Park theme music plays as Mr. Burns flies off to Scotland to find the Loch Ness Monster.

Godzilla peers through the airplane window in "Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo", just like the T-Rex did through the car window in Jurassic Park.

In "The Old Man and the Key", one of Los Souvenir Chaquitos wears a Jurassic Park jacket.

In "Angry Dad: The Movie", the film's theme music is played during the awards show montage.

Behind the Laughter

Jurassic Park is a real movie.
