| The Lost World (1998) | comment |
Based off the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle novel of the same name, this movie shifts the action from South America in 1912 to Mongolia in 1938.In 1938, American Paleontologist and Mongolian explorer Maple White and Azbek discover a pterosaur egg which they plan to bring back to civilization, but die from the hostile wildlife with White managing to get back to Azbek's brother and sister at the base of the plateau. In his dying breath, he hands his research off to his British zoologist colleague Challenger. Challenger returns to Britain and vouches for a second expedition to return to the plateau with skeptic Paleontologist Summerlee, Anthropologist and Maple White's daughter Amanda White, Azbek's siblings Djena and Myar, journalist Malone, and at the insistence of his financial backer but with great reluctance, big game hunter John Roxton. | |

Chased by Angry Natives: After Challenger and Roxton rescue Amanda from the Neanderthals, the Neanderthals chase them back to their camp, hurling spears at them. This forces the group to take off in the balloon before all the supplies are loaded. | |

Booby Trap: The Neanderthals have placed booby traps across the plateau; marking each of them with a skull. A skull which Malone somehow fails to spot every time he encounters one. | |

| The Lost World (1998) / int_41a48472 | comment |
Bat Out of Hell: The researcher Maple White and his assistant Azbek discover a world populated by dinosaurs situated on a Mongolian plateau. Soon after the pair are attacked by what are supposed to be Eudimorphodons ( a species of pterosaur) but which are depicted as more like a swarm of large, vicious vampire bats. | |

| The Lost World (1998) / int_557838d1 | comment |
Adaptational Attractiveness: In the original novel, Professor Challenger is squat and ape-like; to the extent that Frazetta Men on the plateau take him for one of their own. Here he is portrayed by Patrick Bergin. | |

Raptor Attack | |
| The Lost World (1998) / int_695efde3 | comment |
Raptor Attack: Very perplexingly the film opts to use jackal sized Eoraptors, who despite the name is not actually a Dromaeosauridae note the scientific group Deinonychus, Velociraptor, and relation belong to, though it is accurately sized. A Jurassic Park styled Velociraptor does feature, but only as a corpse. | |

Adaptation Personality Change | |
| The Lost World (1998) / int_6fbe85e6 | comment |
Adaptation Personality Change: Only Professor Summerlee and Malone are more or less unchanged. Professor Challenger is far, far less pugnacious than he is in the novels and is completely open to Malone accompanying them. John Roxton is far more smug and trigger happy than he was in the source material, as well as exceptionally greedy. | |

| The Lost World (1998) / int_b47f7b7f | comment |
T. Rexpy: Naturally features, albeit as an evolved species in the Tyrannosaurus genus. Curiously for a genus notorious for short arms, it has an enormous set of skinny forelimbs with flared-out elbows. Coincidentally, this makes it resemble Indominus rex seventeen years before the latter became a thing. | |
