All the dinosaurs were female, but the frog DNA let some of them mutate to male due to the absence of appropriate mates Hence why the guy says "clever girl" when he gets ambushed by the raptor. I think at that point they erroneously still believe that every dinosaur is female and didn't know they were breeding. --- http://i.imgur.com/nlaY1qH.jpg http://i.imgur.com/zHJ1OCo.gif http://i.imgur.com/btBPP4E.jpg http://i.imgur.com/1B3bMHw.gif https://imgur.com/nQik2zW ...

Novel Hammond is a joke character. He's like an American communist teenager's version of an old fat capitalist. In general a lot of the novel is a joke. Like when Grant and the kids are on a raft on a river about to go over a waterfall and the T-Rex is waiting below the fall with open jaws just waiting for them to fall in. --- "That thick shaft that causes women to shudder!" ...

I mean Hammond more fucked Nedry over by underpaying him for the job he was hired for. But even if he did pay him you still had the dinosaurs breeding and in the book the raptors were sneaking out of their paddocks and breeding so they would have been fucked. --- "He may be Mr. Clean, but his soul will always be dirty!" ...

Still shouldnt have antagonized the guy in charge of automating the majority of his dinosaur theme park though, just sayin. --- "Palpy didn't get laid, the only people he seduced were Maul, Dooku and Anakin." -- WingZero0782, in response to an impromptu Star Wars lore discussion ...

BOOK and MOVIE SPOILERS IIRC in the book Nedry still did his thing. They got power back on and everything was up and running. So they went on like nothing else was wrong. Then they realized the computer doesn't work that way and they actually didn't have power to the fences or something. So in the book Nedry causes a problem, they fix it, but flaws in their design makes it so it isn't really fixed. The second problem was on them. The movie, I think all problems were caused by Nedry. Although one could argue that their problems started long before that. In the book they didn't know that the dinosaurs were breeding because they coded their software in a way that wasn't giving them the correct numbers. (They told it to search for 2 of a dinosaur and it found the 2, but didn't mention there were 4 more because of breeding because it was set to ONLY look for 2) Put simply: No. It couldn't have survived. It was destined to fail because it is a fact that with enough time something will go wrong. --- "No. I'm a man so theyll get me a full size McDouble." - DuncanWii https://i.imgur.com/cSxy3Od.png ...

I remember in the book they restart the computer system, but the main power never turned on and they don't realize they were running on auxiliary power the whole time until it ran out of juice and fucked everything. And think the fences were offline the entire time they were on backup power too --- http://i.imgur.com/nlaY1qH.jpg http://i.imgur.com/zHJ1OCo.gif http://i.imgur.com/btBPP4E.jpg http://i.imgur.com/1B3bMHw.gif https://imgur.com/nQik2zW ...

Which I guess one of the good things about the movie universe that Jurassic Word for the most part fixed some of the problems. Outside whoever designed the Indominus Rex Paddock to only detect motion/heat instead of having the same tracking tech inside those computers.

But they needed some plot point for everything to go to hell for the movie. As for Jurassic Park and TC's question, I've only seen the movies, but yes I think the first three were all set in motion by Nedry. --- "No merkins? Fie on thee." - zhukov1943 WoT ...

The reason the movie has Hammond state four times that he spared no expense is to let the audience know that he spent excessive amounts of money on everything... except his employees. His computer team consists of two people. The cars are all automatic. It's more evident in the book when the character flat out boasts that the key to making a fortune is to hire as few people as possible. The novel really beats you over the head with what a capitalist bastard Hammond is supposed to be. ... Copied to Clipboard!
