    They weren't given away. You had to buy a soda.

    I still have my Batman Forever glasses from McDonalds. Two of them. Two-Face flips a coin, and the arc of the coin forms the cup.

    1992 is not that long ago mate. I graduated High school in '92.

    1992 is too long ago for Jurassic Park...which came out in 1994.

    Still though - back in the day - I was just a kid back then, saw it in the cinema, great stuff.

    Jurassic park has to be early '93 at the latest as i was still in primary school when i watched it at the cinema,and i started secondary school in september '93!I had a few of those cups as well,although they were thrown away when they got too faded.
    I remember it took about 2 years before jurassic park came out on video as well!these days it would have been released on dvd about 2 months after it finished showing!

    the cups dated '92, so unless its form a parallel dimension in which it came out earlier im tempted to agree with it. though wikipedia has it down as a '93 release, wierd.

    THE CUP LIES!!!

    Actually yeah, 1993...June 11th in fact.

    I wonder where I got 1994 from? Hmmm...anyway...1993, blimey...I was 9...just started watching horror films as well, oh memory lane...

    Perhaps the cups were made late-ass 1992 in preparation for the promotion a couple of months into 1993, so that by the time it was released everybody would be hyped up on Jurassic Park sugar...and be obese.

    aye i reckon your right.

    about the date thing not the sugar thing, allthough hasnt disney land had to close some rides as there are too many "plus sized" patrons on them cuasing strees to the weldings or something?, i dont know if that was on the news or smodcast though.
