Basically it was pretty much "yeah, he's dead" at the end of the first book but in the second it "turned out" that "oh, no he was just MOSTLY dead. He got better".
@James Nesmith No, I read it the other day and Muldoon says to Gerry: "What about Malcom" And then Gerry shakes his head. Well, something like that anyway.
but is described as a cowered when it came to finding the raptors nests and wanted nothing to do with his involvement with the park after it all hit the fane
He should have survived in the first movie. Then in Jurassic World, he is living as a hermit on the neglected part of the Island and the toilet cubicle is his house.
Obscure Entertainment Haha. In the original book, Donald was actually useful and only died of dysentary after the end, and the useless character was Ed Regis, who got eaten by the T-Rex. For some reason though, in the movie, they lumped Regis with Gennaro.
Obscure Entertainment hahahaha that wouId be perfect! He shouId Iook Iike Tom Hanks character in cast away with a big ass caveman beard aII crazy taIkin to himseIf and shit. In fact I woud be very happy if he were the onIy one to Iive in the end of aII the movies. IoI
St. Steven He shows up just as the two kids are being attacked by the indominus rex and he saves them. Then he takes on Dr Grant's role and becomes their guide on the island.
Anyone else thought it was sort of amusing how the T-rex stopped and looked at the van at each point on why he shouldn't die almost as if to say "whatchu got to say to that??"
@@thelordz33 Sean Connery had the chance to get the role of John Hammond but he prefered to be in (not Marvel's) Avengers. I really like how Richard Attenborough turned Hammond into a jovial grandpa but Connery would have easily played the grumpy egoist from the book. I wonder if the cast was the reason they changed the character and his fate.
Funny story, the actor who played Donald Genero tried to convince Steven Speilberg to hack his character live in the movie and kill off Malcome instead, you know, like in the book? But for some reason that didnt happen.
Jenema2 Actually Malcom lived to be in the sequel book "Lost World". I'm not assuming that based off the movie, I actually read the book. I know in the first one it said he was dead but in the second he was "resurrected" and basically went on with his "chaos" and applying it evolutionary paleontology.
ThatGuy CalledPhil He originally died in the book. Speilberg went to Michael and asked him to write The Lost World and Michael ultimately decided to make the second book match up with the film's ending
Yeah, that always bugged me. He was an entirely different character in the book, but they used him as little more than dinosaur chow in the movie. Wtf?
The way he acts in the movie is actually the way John Hammond acts in the book, all about making a profit and how they can sell it to people. It's a really weird switch they made.
Klomp dark Not really THAT weird. I think audience would rather see a guy with grandchildren have a redemption arc, than some lawyer with no on-screen next of kin.
hes kinda important, but i think the problem for him in the movie is that he was more important then the tour guide character that was in the book just to die
i guess. there are so many holes in that sequence. If you watch the bit when they stop outside the trex paddock during daylight there is a tunnel into the mountain. He could have run in there. The biggest flaw though is when the rex pushes the car into the very location that it entered the road from and suddenly they are on the side of a cliff.
TheRubberStudiosASMR He could but he didn't due to the panic. The cliff suddenly appearing was pretty much an intentional mistake. My guess is that Spielberg improvised the action sequence on the spot and caught the production off-guard.
If you really think about how the movie went, the T-rex wasn't interested in them until Lex turned the light on and that caused the T-rex to attack the SUV. Had she not done that, the T-rex would have accepted the SUVs as this thing that was no threat, didn't taste very good, and was not exactly doing things, as just part of its environment. Even the attack wasn't specifically on the kids but rather the bright flashy thing that hurt its eye. It attacked the SUV more than them because it saw the vehicle as a threat more than it saw the people as potential prey. By the time Alan Got out with the flare, it had regarded the bright flashy things as the things it should attack, not really the people themselves... Until Fucksti- I mean Ian Malcom, took off running with the flare. When he threw it but kept on running, the T-Rex was definitely thinking "Moving running thing FOOD!!!" Had he remained in the vehicle, the T-rex would have walked off to investigate the bright flashy thing (I know it's a flare btw) and Alan would have gotten the kids. The T-rex would then have wandered off and had his mutha-fuggin t-rex moment eating frenzy with some Brachiosauruses or something. However, I guess that's just a "plot required them to be pursued kind of" moment.
Martin Ferraro is such a good actor, I can't believe he hasn't been in any films the last few years. But if you're apart of Jurassic Park you're remembered forever so good for him!
Ethan Rex If you're going to be talking up the book, you should mention Genero is actually the hero who contacts the mainland and Malcom and Hammond both end up dying.
Namhart Elkor I think it was the whole movement thing. The T-Rex needs a moving object to keep it's attention. In other words, someone needed to wave the flare around.
Jane Doe No artard, they're supposed to be bone or enamel colored. Teeth aren't meant to be bleached to the point where they can be used as night lights. The fuck.
Don Skiver *reads comment of shitty man with shitty yellow teeth trying to defend his gross shitty mouth* lol shut the fuck up and go brush your teeth.
Jane Doe I don't know where you got the idea that I'm trying to defend *my* teeth, I didn't say a god damned thing about *my* situation, but whatever. Just keep on defending the use of photoshop so people can keep chasing the illusion of perfection with their bodies because it makes you look like a real class act.
+Xander Patten It isn't... although that is Martin Ferrero, reprising his role as the lawyer Donald Gennaro. Barry Rothbart is playing Jeff Goldblum's character
Such a shame what they did to this character in the film, don't get me wrong it is my favourite film but in the book he's a much bigger and less cowardly character.
***** Right right right! That was also around the time people started getting on their high horses and talked down to anyone whose opinions or interests may have different than their own! Seriously,this kind of reply is seen with everything whenever someone pretentious enough feels they have the right/obligation to reply to a random comment or criticism, not considering the possibility that maybe they love the channel so much they want to criticize it so the creators will know what their fans want, "Oh you're just hating" or "You're just being critical" and my favorite "Quit complaining! It was good none the less!"
***** I am for the advancement of humanity as a whole. As a community, a culture, and of the evolution of our species to become a greater existence. Personally I don't see why White culture or any other culture have to sacrifice what they are for advancement. Good video by the way made me think a bit. I don't know what brought this up though?
donalds character was much better in the book. Wait the book was better than the movie overall. Yet the actor that plays Donald fits his character perfectly.
The joke is.... Gennaro was a badass in the novel. Beat up a raptor with his bare hands and survived the book entirely. ... Only to die of dysentary later on...
Silver Drake Only because Sercurrity guards fall into pattern and relax. If you keep your shit wired tight all the time, you're less likely to be surprised and off guard when the demons finally burst from the shadows, or the Goon Squad decides to set up shop in YOUR FACILITY! It's hard to keep from falling into habit. Never close the Ever Watchful Eye!
Well he lives until the end of the book but then catches dysentary (i.e. effectively mega food poisoning) and dies from pooping himself before the next book starts.
The T Rex stopping to confirm each one of the lawyers claims to importance with the rest of the cast is my second favorite thing. First favorite thing being that Martin Ferraro came back to play the same character with the same name. Good work all around. Jesus, this sketch is almost a decade old...
In the novels Gennaro was pinned by a raptor on his back, he managed to throw it off him (it was one of the captive ones which escaped from the pen when the power went off, there were also wild ones that the park management didn't know about. Pretty sure the wild ones were a result of the captive ones breeding in the pen which was only designed to keep adult raptors from escaping, they didn't know the adults were reproducing. The ones which spent all their lives in captivity were a lot more aggressive than the wild ones)
Donald was never a useless character He brought along Dr. Ian Malcolm to the park! The rest is movie history! To quote John Hammond: "I bring scientists, you bring a rockstar."
That's a, uh, really BAD, uh, Jeff GoldBLUM I mean, MalCOM, uh, impression. Not, uh, enough ENOUGH, 'uhs' and um, 'ums', and he DOESn't emphasize certain WORDS enough.
Frisbee He did admit he was only funny in small doses. Good ass Goldblum texting impression Frisbee! You must be him incognito to go commenting unseen. Can't believe they got the real lawyer for this way cool.
I love that Martin Ferrero argued with Jeff Goldblum before filming began over whether or not his character should live and Jeff's should be the one to be killed off early. This made that whole story come to life for me.
Pretty awesome how they got all the real actors to reprise their roles: Sam Kinison, Laura Linney, Jeff Brundlefly, Saw Gerrera, and Annoying Kid 1 and Annoying Kid 2.
Choosing the chaos theorist instead of the lawyer who memorized the park layout is like choosing the comedy club member instead of the varsity athlete for a dodgeball teammate.
If I remember correctly from the books everyone in the cars survived the initial T-Rex attack (Gennaro decided to stay with the sick dinosaur (think it was a stegosaur in the novel) with Ellie). When Malcolm was found he said the T-Rex picked him up in her jaws, shook him bloody hard and then tossed him to the ground. Ed Regis, the guy who abandoned the kids in the novel, was later killed by the second juvenile T-Rex which shared the T-Rex paddock with Rexy. I think the novel said she was 7ft tall. He tried to scare her off by yelling at her and hitting her on the nose.
So cool that Martin Ferrero would actually do this. Jurassic Park is one of my childhood favorites and the "lawyer" was actually a very important part of the experience.
Something that’s kind of funny is that Jeff Goldblum and Martin Ferrero met on the flight to Hawaii to film the movie. Martin Ferrero had been reading the book, and told Jeff Goldblum that he had an idea that he was wanting to pitch to Steven Spielberg: he thought, that for the good of the movie, Gennaro should live, and Malcolm should die.
