In the book, this wouldn't have mattered. The raptors were breeding regardless of this check. Since they still never told Nedry what him and his team were designing till after the park was opened. They didn't discover the raptor population increase. The entire system fails cause it counts for 5 animals and when it reaches 5 it stops.

The premise of this (and the increasingly dumb sequels) is that such a park is impossible and a testament to the arrogance of man.
In real life...zoos exist. Zoos with dangerous animals. If some eccentric billionaire dreams of making Predator Park, and buys some private island in the middle nowhere and flies out some Grizzly bears and lions and crocs and shit, doesn't hire proper experts to watch over them, doesn't have proper safety mechanisms, and then they escape and kill a few people, we don't ban all zoos from ever existing because this guy was a retard.

It was a bit unbelievable that there was a herd of adult raptors roaming around the island and they never attacked anyone. Also the first raptors were kept in a small enclosure, how did nobody notice them breeding? How did the babies get out?

The book is pretty clear on what went wrong specifically, that Hammond cut corners too much by relying too heavily on automation with minimal human staff. The movie only sort of glosses over this and a lot of normies thought it was the hurricane that caused the disaster.

Something was breeding in the movie. Grant finds the hatched egg when he and the kids are walking back after the Rex attack. I suspect it was the raptors, but Spielberg just kind of forgot about that plot thread because he is a hack that only cared about making a PG-13 monster movie.

>>215245203
It also starts with people obsessively watching the dig, followed by people watchig the computer screen like they were zoomers and a new tiktok movie just dropped.
I feel like this movie was pulled in a dozen directions, that's why at the end of the day it's just "meh cool movie" 7/10 slop. They should have let Crichton direct it, Spielberg just whored out after Jaws, unfortunately.

I imagine that he saw the amusement park as more a means to raise the capital and public support to continue his research. Resurrecting a 65 million year old species isn't cheap you know.

That said, for the sake of public safety, he would probably have been better off starting with herbivore dinosaurs rather than a FUCKING T-REX

Should be the other way around, the amusement park is the vanity project while the research is the money maker.

Read the novel. The Park itself was just gonna be a giant advertisement for InGen products. Crichton thought of everything.

>“What they have done,” Dodgson said, “is build the greatest single tourist attraction in the history of the world. As you know, zoos are extremely popular. Last year, more Americans visited zoos than all professional baseball and football games combined. And the Japanese love zoos—there are fifty zoos in Japan, and more being built. And for this zoo, InGen can charge whatever they want. Two thousand dollars a day, ten thousand dollars a day … And then there is the merchandising. The picture books, T-shirts, video games, caps, stuffed toys, comic books, and pets.”

>“Pets?”

>“Of course. If InGen can make full-size dinosaurs, they can also make pygmy dinosaurs as household pets. What child won’t want a little dinosaur as a pet? A little patented animal for their very own. InGen will sell millions of them. And InGen will engineer them so that these pet dinosaurs can only eat InGen pet food.…”

Even if the Park itself doesn't make sense financially for being too expensive, the merchandising and rights alone would be enough.

Why is it Jurassic Park that attracts these types of no-fun, know-it-all faggots?
You don't hear shit from nobody about how a shark wouldn't attack boats in Jaws or how you actually can't hear sounds in space in Star Wars.
It's always Jurassic Park. And then they act like everything needs to be changed to fit modern science and paleoart sensibilities.
Annoys the fuck out of me because I like the way JP dinosaurs are as iconic movie monsters the same way I think the Xenomorph is cool as shit, and they weren't that accurate to science to begin with.

Hammond being evil would dampen the initial wonder of Jurassic Park, and honestly that would make a worse movie (at least for me). They immediately showed the cracks in the system anyway, so it's not like they undermined the message of chaos vs control.

Hammond being benevolent also drives home the point that good intentions doesn't necessarily mean things will turn out good. That's a more compelling idea than "evil businessman gets his comeuppance" that we've seen a million times already.

Designing a living, breathing species which could only ever derive nutrients from food that you produce is not at all a joyous but bull-headed magnate move but a greedy and malicious. There's no way you could spin to the audience that he convinced even himself that making millions of pet animals dependent on his product just to live is a good thing.
Selling the merch and pets is fine but making it so that sparky the pet compy needs his special InGen Soulstorm brew or else he dissolves into goo is just fucked up.

Making a theme park instead of a zoo.
Making a theme park instead of a game preserve (where people could pay a brazillion dollars to hunt an animal.)
Making a theme park at all. Theme park people are notoriously terrible at accommodating the needs of animals. It's why all the recorded human deaths by orca whale are all in theme parks. If anything the premise and the animals being psychotic human-killing machines is very accurate: living at a theme park fucking sucks.

Using the cloning tech for dinosaurs first and not instead leeching gazillions of dollars off of government grants from various countries, and the UN, cloning recently extinct animals, pleistocene creatures, and cultivating a global reputation as a "global environmental hero" for reintroducing passenger pigeons and mammoths while becoming the richest man on the planet.
>>
>>215250848
>I thought you were one of your big brothers!

Even Nedry knew the Dilos grow bigger. Adult Dilo could definitely carry a movie. Imagine a group of humans being stalked by one. It blinds them one by one, forcing the humans to slow down or abandon their blind companions. Tons of drama as the humans argue what to do, who to leave behind, having their mental state pushed to the absolute limit. Meanwhile the Dilo is just being an asshole in the background.

Why would it do that?
>>
>>215248475
Herbivores are far more dangerous than carnivores. Carnivores have to factor in a risk reward system and if there's risk of significant enough injury they'll leave a potential prey alone. They cannot afford injury. Whereas, herbivores, being prey animals, go full fight or flight. And depending on the species they'll choose fight more often than not. And that fight is always life or death. If they lose they die. If they win they live and even an injury in the process is worth the risk. I would 100% rather have a loose TRex than a triceratops.
>>
>>215251283

He hired one guy to run his security tech. It should have been a small team with each capable of running independent checks on the whole system. Even if one or two of them wanted to shut things down for their shitty reasons, the rest of the team would notice and be able to prevent it. Probably should have had backup systems and generators in different sections of the park too.
Also a team of armed handlers with high capacity tranqs and tasers, could have even conditioned the dinosaurs from birth to avoid certain sounds or smells to add additional barriers.
Basically the idea of the park is very doable, just needs better security. But then there wouldn't be a movie.
>>
>>215241250
I still don't even understand how the park was supposed to work. The various dinosaurs have massive habitats they can hang around in, but the jeeps only get to see a narrow slice. Unless one of the dinosaurs JUST SO HAPPENS to be standing right at the perimeter next to the road, you're never going to see any of them. Which is exactly what happens in the movie during the parts of the tour they go through. So okay, are they going to put out a goat for the T. rex to eat every single time a jeep goes by? I just don't see how this logistically makes any sense at all.

You can have a safari tour where people are willing to ride around in open environments where dinosaurs might kill them. You can have a zoo where the dinosaurs are in small enclosures where they're visible to visitors. But you can't have both large habitats and have the dinosaurs visible to spectators from behind the safety of walls and fences.

That's the way normal Zoos work, too. Sometimes the Animal is sleeping somewhere in their enclosure and won't come out, so you just don't see it right there and then.
