No. More like obese resentful greedy computer nerds engaging in corporate sabotage will find away. If it wasn't for Nedry being a total piece of shit, none of the dinosaurs would have broken out.

Life finds away?
That's the problem of making a book/movie where dinosaurs get loose is the main plot point. I am sure that dinosaurs would be really dangerous but they would still basically just be like, more dangerous versions of tigers or bears. In reality, I figure that one squad of decently trained soldiers could wipe out the whole park's worth of dinosaurs without too much trouble. So to make the dinosaurs a believable threat, the plot has Nedry sabotage the park, which has almost no guns because Hammond is worried about the dinosaurs getting shot, during a heavy storm, while a group of outsiders are literally in the middle of touring the park for the first time.
I was going to b***h out at you and state that dinosaurs had already escaped the island and that the code (even when working according to design requirements) underreported the actual number of animals on the island but then I remembered these were only plot points in the book.
I’m the movie you’re right, and I guess it’s obvious why it was written that way. I really want a remake more true to the book that doesn’t shy away from the philosophy of the book. Westworld season 1 proves it is possible to do more artsy and complex sci-fi.
you want one of the best non-moronic blockbusters of all time remade because a few extraneous plot details from the book were left out
fricking hell, you and morons like you are the reason why cinema has gone to shit
It is a classic movie, but it’s deeper than a few extraneous details missing from the movie. It’s a complete tonal shift in writing Hammond’s character differently. In order to accomplish this, the movie needed to enable to shift most of the blame for the park’s failure to the Nedry instead of shortsightedness/greediness of Hammond. There’s also some very great scenes between Hammond/Wu and Hammond/Malcolm that were cut which would be good to see acted on screen. The scenes are reminiscent of the scene in Jurassic World when Wu and Masrani have their discussion about bigger-badder dinosaurs (if it was written by a competent author). A remake or short series might also be able to go into more detail about chaos theory and Crichton’s fear of simulations in the 90s. Also, novel Muldoon is even more of a badass. I just feel like there’s a good case for a remake even though I know it wouldn’t be done satisfactorily.
Yeah, it would be interesting to see the story filmed with the book's darker tone, with the sorta scummy corner-cutting Hammond who invites his own grandkids to tour the half-finished dinosaur island as part of an attempt to placate his investors, and with Malcolm dying at the end, and with the whole thing ending with the characters being detained indefinitely by the Costa Rica government.
The Chaos Theory stuff was the best part of the book and is really the reason to read it.
It doesn't matter because in the end it's a small mistake that results in a catastrophe and there's no point in remaking that again except worse.
Actually to be fair you're right, the book does have the dinosaurs escape to the mainland long before anyone can do anything about it. It's still true that the dinosaurs would not pose much more of a threat to people than other animals do - however, once the dinosaurs have escaped to the mainland probably it would not be possible to ever get rid of them completely. They would spread, hide in the jungles, etc - life would indeed find a way.
In the book the animals were OC do not steal tier supermutants instead of just dinosaurs. They were immune to bullets and shit.
> They were immune to bullets and shit.
lol. They bleed out really slowly, making bullets an impractical solution.
Muldoon talks Hammond into allowing two rocket launchers in a locked cabinet on the island. He frags a raptor in half with one.
It was fricking cool.
Thats what you get for not talking about the bonus situation.
just learn *nix and fix the code yourself you dumb Black person
>Life finds away
But the line wasn't about escape. It was about same-sex dinosaurs finding a way to frick.
OP is a moron and found jurassic park too complicated to follow, he much prefers the jurassic world movies and found jurassic park iii "underrated"
Crichton predicted silicon valley.
My brother works for silicon valley and would burn his children alive for more money.
Evil cannibal cumdumpster queer communists. Literally should've never gave these homies money.
You should read Congo, it's even more anti-SV. The whole thing is about their thirst for coltan decades before anyone knew what it was.
What’s Congo about plot-wise and what trend in 90s science/tech was Crichton specifically complaining about? Congo never sounded worth the read to me, but I’m open to giving it a try.
Besides Jurassic Park, I think most posters on this board would also love Disclosure (which isn’t sci-go but poignant social commentary for the #MeToo era published many years before it was a thing).
It's about a high-tech geosurveillance/mineral exploration sort of company that loses a team in the Congo rain forest in mysterious circumstances and sends a second team in to investigate what happened and secure the mineral rights that the first team was after. They have reason to believe that gorillas might have been involved somehow, so they bring along a gorilla researcher and a gorilla that speaks sign language. So it's kind of an exploration of typical Crichton interests like corporate disfunction and high tech, but at the same time it reads like Crichton writing an ode to pulpy jungle exploration sort of fiction. It's basically a classic "team of adventurers go into the rain forest" sort of story, but with a lot of high tech and corporate intrigue layered into it.
So he wrote it and it actually takes place in the late 70's, when only the military had access to portable computers and just before the home micro boom
It talks about a lot of the underhanded shit the companies that came ahead did like exploitation of resources and underselling suppliers. It's a good read if you're into computers.
this is all told through the journey of this team going to where they actually mine the stuff, hence the title

The world is more nuanced than you would like it to be
I loved when T-Rex showed up and said "it's dino time" and dinoed all over protagonists, one of the moments of all time.
Nedry is an organic lifeform who is part of the Dinosaurs environment. How are his actions not life finding a way?
More like old corporate mega rich man who "spared no expense" on everything in his fricking part except for his employees which he underpaid and treated like shit. If Hammond had actually paid Nedry correctly, none of this would have happened.
>If Hammond had actually paid Nedry correctly,
Or had hired more than one person to manage the entire island's IT and security systems...
As always I see posts trusting Nedry's side completely and without question.
OP you're right but the most annoying thing of all happens in the 2nd film, when pic related, this coward took a shell out of the supposed "villains" gun because he wanted a trophy kill on the T-rex, it left a real bad taste in my mouth because it's literally treason. When he finally went to shoot the T-rex he was missing that ammo. I bet the director wanted me to feel bad for the T-rex for some reason.
Why are you blaming Malcolm for that? And ultimately Ludlow is to blame because the Rex was defeated anyway it was him who decided to transport it.
Nick takes replaces the rounds with empties, not Malcom.
This movie was fricking stupid because none of them realized the dinosaurs were just a combination of practical and CG effects and they were all actors who were never in any danger.
