You know, it always confused me whether Hammod's voice could or couldn't be heard from inside the cars

For those of you who don't know or don't remember the movie:
  • Sabrina is Lawyer Don Gennaro, the representative of Jurassic Park's stockholders who want to kick Hammond off the board
  • Draig is Lex, Hammond's hippie-ish computer geek of a granddaughter
  • Ace is Tim, Hammond's action-loving bookworm of a grandson
  • Rook is Dr. Ellie Sattler, a paleontologists quasi-romantically involved with Dr. Grant, specialized in prehistoric plants and adoring children, here to say whether Jurassic Park is "authentic" or not
  • Max is Dr. Ian Malcolm, the breakout-role eccentric chaos theory specialist charged with saying how everything could go horribly wrong
  • Olive is Dr. Alan Grant, a quasi-bankrupt paleontologist specialized in Velociraptors and hating children, here to say whether Jurassic Park is "authentic" or not
  • Grape is John Hammond, the lovable 70-year-old millionare who has "spared no expense" building Jurassic Park
  • Tarot is COO Ray Arnold, chain smoker
  • Pueblo is Jurassic Park's zookeeper Robert Muldoon, who acts like Crocodile Dundee (who is from Australia), though he, himself, canonically is from Kenya
  • North Star is the big Velociraptor
  • Darth Vader Sanchez is a baby Velociraptor
  • Craig is Dennis Nedry, the fed-up underpaid (or so he claims) tech geek working at Jurassic park
  • Peanut is everyone else, including the postproduction team

I imagine it went something like
-So you liked the design Mr Hammod?
H: I did
-Shall we build it?
H: no.
-Why?
H: Because it wasn't me the one who design it

There’s only so far the budget can stretch
with the greatest Imaginate
and, with all things in account,
a lack of Dinos is your fate.
Just use your mind, my little guy,
to fill in the remaining blanks
and, if you then survive the night,
be imaginative with thanks.
Max is with our Ace here, it seems,
unable to see it all through.
Against that kind of mental block
there’s little a silky voice can do.

And so, the car tour begins, despite the incoming big storm risk. :roll: Ok, welcome to the Jurassic Park, but indeed, there are too many trees and leaves covering almost everything. :P He can well criticize also that, why he shouldn't? ;) Three thousand dollars spent just to see a forest? Yep, they're the worst ones ever spent. :?

Oh hey look at that! Malcolm isn't stuttering anymore like he did before! I guess he realized if he continued doing it someone would throw him to the dinosaurs. XD

I think it was Skittles, actually. I continue to like Max in this Imaginate, also I like how Olive has her paw over her eyes to try and see the dinosaurs.

I just thought of something.

If we ever get an Imaginate for Independence Day, Max needs to play David.

That will be something we have to make sure Rick takes into consideration then.

Hopefully by that time their mother will have taught them not to spray every animal or person that they meet.

Can't even see the dinos,
What a shame,
Looks to me like
The park design's to blame.

This looks like an interesting ride,
All the creatures come along,
And Hammond's narration
Will the foolishness prolong.

Crimes against humanity,
Hammond's committed those,
But about it, he's apathetic,
As his remark clearly shows.
You're a wonderful person! You can do this! Yes, you, person reading this!

Oh my god, I was just rereading this comic and how did I miss that it was a total reference to this classic Homestar Runner toon?

Rick you sly dog you :D

I'm sure many people who read Homestar Runner got it but since I don't it just went over my head until it was pointed out.
