Considering the amount of time I waste, it's a little odd that I should get annoyed at Jurassic Park wasting ten seconds of my life. When the DVD menu first loads, I'm forced to watch a brief clip of a raptor bounding across the floor of the Jurassic Park Visitor Center before the options even appear. And then when I choose an option, I get treated to another five-second, slightly-unpleasant clip of the raptor sliding back into frame and then leaping and screaming into my face, before the DVD accepts that I pressed 'Play Film' and actually Plays the Film.
All I want to do is Play the damn Film.
Maybe it's because those ten seconds are keeping me away from dinosaur fun, or because it's visually or auditory unpleasant, or because short DVD menu-animations are so ubiquitous these days.
Or maybe it's because Steven Spielberg has wasted enough of my time already.
Fucking Indiana Jones.
