“The Lost World” (1992). It’s not hard to figure out why we’re not still talking about this one: when it comes to dinosaur movies, Jurassic Park came out a few months later, and it feels like it’s on the wrong side of a truly seismic shift where dinosaur movie fans started to demand more. John Rhys-Davies plays Professor Challenger, easily Arthur Conan Doyle’s second most memorable character, a deep voiced, irascible, contentious, fearless visionary who is almost like a Brit Teddy Roosevelt, a great scientist but who believes in the full-contact version of science, resolving scientific arguments with an angry armwrestling contest. John Rhys Davies was born to be Professor Challenger, just like he was born to be Gimli and born to be Holly in a film production of She. John Rhys Davies was also the most absolutely buyable voice of the Marvel hero Mighty Thor ever, during the Fantastic Four cartoon. -- source link
