Why did they have to portray scientests as people with weird personalities in Jurasic park?
>>
>>83669286
They were using cutting edge/rejected scientists to work on highly illegal or ethically questionable projects. Ian Malcom or w/e is sort of a pop scientist in the movie, think like a Dr. Phil kind of guy. His genius in the adventure is recognizing at the onset how fractals in the construction of the park have made its demise inevitable.

Speaking as an ex scientist with a great many people I know being scientists most have weird personalities.

What's this expression trying to convey?
>>
Like I feel the scientest characters in Jurasic park are either mild or borderline Aspergers types.

Like when the kid says to alan grant "that doesn't look so scary more like a 6ft turkey" he kind of spergs out about his work in a kind of autistic way even though it was just a kid being dumb...
>>
>>83669810
It's so true. Why can't we have characters like Malcolm anymore? Instead we get Chad after Chad rammed down our throats.
>>
>>83670710
Malcom was not a normal guy.
>>
>>83670647

>spend months digging through some wasteland in Montana
>tired and exhausted but the job needs to be done
>finally come across remains, all of the hard work has paid off
>some chubby little shithead openly trivializes your career
>put him in his place

Makes sense to me.
>>
>>83670647
I know scientists that sperg out exactly like that with wild exaggeration and threats of doom. I had a colleague flip out on some tourists in Tahoe because they incorrectly identified a cinder cone as a meteor strike. Went into some lurid description of the long valley caldera, talking about how them and their families would be dead. It was weird but he's an excellent mineralogist so he gets a pass

Like on the helicopter
Dr mlcolm goes

> You guys dig up dinosaurs
Alan grant goes
> We try to

Then Malcolm laughs in a spergy kind of way

Grant looks at him funny

Hammond goes
>You will have to get used to Dr Malcolm
>>
>>83670920
Thanks for that.

>>83670872
If you re watch the movie, the people around him especially Dr Satteler are all thinking

>Here we go Dr Alan Grant is going to sperg out again.

Then adterwards she is like
>if you wanted to scare him you could of just pulled a gun on him.

Why so angry? Are you saying Spielberg doesn't make his smart characters eccentric?
>>
>>83671739
Speilberg and company.
>>
>>83671412
no problemo buddy
>>
>>83669286
But he wasn't a scientist he was a mathematician.
>>
Who was more autistic, Grant or Malcolm, que dirais que?
>>
>>83672169
Other eccentric things Dr Malcom does

Taps on the camera and talks to it
>Hey is there going to be dinosaurs

When grant and sateller leave the car
>Here I am talking to myself, that was unpredictable like chaos theory
>>
>>83672191
they didn't create the characters
>>83672169
spielberg takes all the credit for a masterpiece created by someone else
>>83672026
scientists are basically the same. the little girl was actually useless, so they gave some of the boys stuff to her.
hammond gets eaten by compys and it is hilarious
>>
>>83672421
He studied Kaos theory.

It was hammond that called him a glorified mathematician.
>>
>>83672480
no, Grant likes kids in the books. Malcolm is more depressing and less funny from what I remember. Another piece of the puzzle that adds to Malcolm's autism theory is his ability to break the fourth wall - "impact tremors that's what that is, I'm fairly alarmed here", "and now I'm sat right here talking to myself, that's chaos theory".
>>
>>83672569
ok malcolm being more depressing and less funny is basically the same.
grant doesn't have a weird personality in either the book or movie.
>>
>>83672569
He also fidgets with his watch with autistic looking body language.
>>
>>83669419
>think like a Dr. Phil kind of guy.
It would be more like black science man of Michiu Bukakke, but with math.
Malcolm wrote a chaos-theory-for-plebs type book and was having his 15 minutes.

He kind of does. He's super determined, ellie remembers a time he walked miles out of the badlands after be broke his leg or ankle. He's also based on Dr. Robert Bakker in the book, complete with pony tail and hobo beard.
In the movie they reference this when Tim compares grant's book to the one by "this guy named bakker."
>>
>>83672874
>super determined
ok
>>
>>83672874
He definitely does have a weird personality in the movie.
>>
>>83672913
I don't know how you don't realise that Grant is a bit different.
>>
Another example of grant being autistic

>malcolm: Are the kids okay?

>Grant: Why wouldn't they be?

>Malcom: Kids get scared

>Grant: I'm not scared

>Malcom: I didn't say you were
>>
>>83670561
>my feet hurt
>I wish I was at home eating chili and sea bass

I seem to remember the book being amazing. Crichton was based.
