8.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Jurassic Park (1993)?
a.		In 1939, the Hollywood Production Code dictated what could and could not be shown or said on screen, and Rhett Butlers memorable last line presented a serious problem. A few of the suggested alternatives were "Frankly my dear... I just dont care," "... it makes my gorge rise," "... my indifference is boundless," "... I dont give a hoot," and "... nothing could interest me less." Although legend persists that the Hays Office fined Selznick $5,000 for using the word "damn", in fact the Motion Picture Association board passed an amendment to the Production Code on November 1, 1939, to insure that Selznick would be in compliance with the code. Henceforth, the words "hell" and "damn" would be banned except when their use "shall be essential and required for portrayal, in proper historical context, of any scene or dialogue based upon historical fact or folklore ... or a quotation from a literary work, provided that no such use shall be permitted which is intrinsically objectionable or offends good taste." With that amendment, the Production Code Administration had no further objection to Rhetts closing line, "Frankly, my dear, I dont give a damn."

Stage cast included Frieda Inescort, Walter Abel, Spring Byington, Herbert Rawlinson and Selena Royle. Byington was also in the film version.

d.		The film cut out many species of dinosaur that were featured in the novel for budgetary and technological reasons. One of these was a small, chicken-sized dinosaur called Procompsognathids, which later made an appearance in The Lost World: Jurassic Park. Dr. Wu explains their reason for having this creature: Dinosaur excrement, he presumes, would have been bio-degradable during the Cenozoic era. However, in the modern day, bacteria have evolved to the point that it is no longer able to break down dinosaur waste, and the larger dinosaurs produce quite a lot of it. "Compys," as they are called, eat the other dinosaurs waste and then excrete it themselves in smaller piles which are more easily broken down by present-day bacteria. The lack of compys in the film may explain the mountain of excrement that Ellie finds.
