We spoke with Horner, 68, about making dinosaurs from mosquitoes and what to expect from Jurassic World. When did you first hear from Steven Spielberg about helping with Jurassic Park? And I told her the first question I had was whether I was eaten in the book. I think he had sort of mashed together Bob Bakker and myself. And then Steven came and sort of took my character aside and made the Alan Grant character.

There were a lot of things wrong, but it was a fictional movie. And so I was just as happy with having some fiction thrown in there as anyone else was. And I stepped in and said, 'They really can't do that. Dinosaurs didn't have forked tongues like lizards or snakes, so we need to take that out,'" Horner said. If we're going to take that scene out, we need to fill it with something else.

Only warm-blooded animals can fog up a window, so it's a tiny little suggestion that dinosaurs are warm-blooded. So, don't depend on the films for what you're going to see in case you ever get the chance to time travel. One reason the movies cheat on what dinosaurs look like, besides trying to look cool: '90s computer graphics. But there was a technical problem making feathers in the computer graphics, so we weren't able to make feathered dinosaurs at the time, but we know now that most of the meat-eating dinosaurs should have been feathered," Horner said.

The series of movies, the Jurassic World reboot, the ride -- it all shows the ongoing fascination with dinosaurs. Why do we find them so marvelous? A Tyrannosaurus rex is 40 feet long. Some of these big sauropods are feet long," Horner said. Completely different -- there's no animal alive today that looks like a dinosaur. And they're gone, so they're just like these gigantic imagination engines, especially for little kids.
