Jurassic Park: A funny theory about Dilophosaurus

Did the kid who was traumatized by Alan Grant in the first Jurassic Park grow up to become Owen Grady in Jurassic World? Did John Hammond deceive his guests from the start? Was the T-Rex attack planned?

Fan theories about Steven Spielberg’s famous film, be they plausible, downright weird or just plain entertaining, abound on the Internet. And some – whether we take them seriously or not – still have the merit of offering a new and amusing perspective on the events of Isla Nublar.

Thus, on the forums RedditE. year magecatwithrows He wondered why the Dilophosaurus didn’t immediately attack Dennis Nedry when it ran into him in the middle of the movie and why it started playing with the rogue computer.

Indeed, before being sprayed with poison and eaten raw, Nedri shares a few privileged moments with his prey, talking to him and even throwing a stick at him without the dinosaur trying anything against him.

“I always thought he measured before he ate and always thought of him as prey”explain magecatwithrows. “But watching the scene for the millionth time this morning, I noticed one important detail: the hood.”

As our friend points out, before starting a little discussion with the Dilophosaurus, Nedri pulled his rain hood back over his head to protect himself from the rain, covering his entire skull.

“His poncho is bright yellow, just like Dilophosaurus’ ruff flaps. (…) The dinosaur has no idea what a raincoat is, so at first when he sees Nedri, all he sees is a giant figure with a huge hat over his face.

“Mind you, all the dinosaurs in the park are female. I think the Dilophosaurus thought Nedri was a male, more specifically a potential mate. That’s why he followed him around like a little dog. He let those little turtles go. Until Nedri tripped. And hat fell.”

The rest, we know. A royal feast for the Dilophosaurus and a tragic end for poor Dennis Neder.

What do you think of this theory?
