First episode of a new series where I talk about some of my favorite film characters instead, of entire films and careers. First up is one of my all-time favorites - Dennis Nedry as portrayed by Wayne Knight in Jurassic Park (199t3).

[@genericpersonx333]

Personally, my favorite fact is that despite being fat and selfish, he was not lazy nor helpless in a crisis. He was dangerously capable and more unlucky than incompetent. He hatches the plan to solve his financial issues through corporate espionage. His computer virus works brilliantly, covering his escape as intended. When his SUV gets hung up, he immediately gets out and starts using the winch, grumbling rather than panicking. It only when faced with a deceptively lethal predator that he loses, because he underestimated it, not because he panicked. A powerful counter to an all-too-common trope that fat and selfish means weak and helpless.

[@elizabeth1703]

good point.

[@parus6422]

in the book, he is very sympathetic. Hammond was a crazy man. Nedry was a self-made tech wiz and had a small company. Hammond was using lawers to basically enslave Nedry's company. So it was less about money and more about payback. I understand in movies they have to compress and change things for time. I am glad you see shades of Hammond's true self in the movie, but he was full on grandiose narcissist.

[@TheRubberStudiosASMR]

I just wondered recently if he did succeed in his plan he would have been a wanted man. I guess he was planning on going back to the control room after he dropped off the canister and then switch the power back on. Hammond and the rest would have questioned where the hell he was for an hour.

[@tony6795]

@@TheRubberStudiosASMR He was hitching a ride on the last boat out of the island. That's why he was in such a hurry and driving too fast for the weather conditions. His plan wasn't supposed to take place until later, but the storm boned him into action. Edit: Whoops, he was planning on going back!

When in college Wayne Knight was told that he would never make it as an actor. But I think he was excellent as Dennis Nedry. I can't imagine anyone else in that role.

[@webduelist]

fubecafy I mean he bid to do the job, that would indicate he is a contractor, he could have multiple employees under him if he bid correctly, in the book he had people back on the main land.

[@beeking1792]

4:25 It is worth mentioning that in the Jurassic Park novel, Dennis Nedry’s death is way more graphic than what we see in the movie. In the novel Nedry gets blinded by the venom, has his intestines ripped out, and finally has his head in the jaws of the Dilophosaurus. And by the way the Dilophosaurus in the novel is about 6 or 7 feet tall, and has a red & yellow pattern to it.

[@saidi7975]

Yeah, he met an adult in the novel.

[@LordBhorak]

The fact that they decided to add the comedic whistle sound when Nedry falls down in the mud still perplexes and amuses me. And no, it's not the cable as the cable makes a ratcheting sound.

[@matthewpaul6904]

That sound just happened on set by accident. Spielberg liked it and kept it in

[@Stzit]

Spielberg always liked a hint of comedy in his action. His repeated use of The Wilhelm Scream in so many of his features became a joke, in itself.

[@WobblesandBean]

I thought that was just the sound of his rubber galoshes slipping on the rock. The sound wasn't added in to be cartoonish.

[@Dielawn69]

@@matthewpaul6904 in what world lol? It is clearly unnatural. Also, it is a classic comedic sound. What are the odds that that would happen so perfectly on accident lol

[@geneparmesan8748]

Just in this video I noticed that there's also the hissing acid sound of the goo hitting Nedry's eyes. My brain always knew that the goo was supposed to burn, but I literally only just now realized it was that added sound effect that is 100% responsible for giving off that impression.

[@weirdproq]

I love Wayne Knight in everything I've seen him in. He's a delight to watch.

[@bryanrizzo9377]

Definitely. He was great as the voice of Al in Toy Story 2 who I would say is the the secondary antagonist with Stinky Pete being the main one. In Billy Madison I thought it was Wayne Knight playing principal Anderson and it does look like him but he was played by Josh Mostel.

[@organicketchup5171]

I love that, without ever feeling contrived or expositional, we’re told everything we need to know about Nedry in his introductory scene. He ruins someone else’s food thoughtlessly and, even after being given a fortune, makes someone else pay for his lunch.

[@SupraRy]

Went to see this movie in the theaters with my father in the laurel maryland shopping center cinema. There was a bad thunderstorm happening outside while the movie was playing and the power went out during the raptor in the kitchen scene. Being 7 years old at the time that freaked me out and I didn't know if it was part of the show or not. My dad chuckled at me at first but assured me it was just a power outage due to the thunderstorm. The power came back on after about 10 mins allowing us to finish the film with a full refund as well due to the inconvenience of the power going out during one of the most intense scenes in the movie. I will always have that wonderful memory of my father.

[@remmymontgomery8483]

That sounds sorta thrilling. When I was watching it alone in theater it randomly cut out when Goldblum was talking (no idea why though). Used my free ticket to watch Robin Hood: Men in Tights. I was ten and probably should have gone with Hocus Pocus.

[@SupraRy]

@@remmymontgomery8483 hahaha! I love hocus pocus. But yes the power outage due to a crazy storm outside was pretty cool cause they had emergency lights and you could hear the storm so we just got to chill out and talk for a couple of minutes until it came back on.

Watching this movie as a kid, Dennis Nedry was my favorite character, because he got to play with all the cool toys and speed through the jungle in a jeep during a tropical storm, which I thought was the coolest thing ever.

I’m surprised why they haven’t included it in any other of the films. It has so much potential- but then I guess that’s why it’s appearance in the first film is so special. The sequels are mostly terrible anyway.

[@KairuHakubi]

which would mean that frill is an intimidation display rather than a sexual one. I figured it was just more InGen splicing, he ended up a runt because they crammed his DNA full of frilled lizard. you notice he also lacks the crocodile-style notched jaw, instead having a simple lizardmouth.

[@WobblesandBean]

@@KairuHakubi They tried to retcon their VERY inaccurate appearance using that as an excuse for the later films, but it always sounded like a weak excuse. 😂 Just like how they turned deinonychus into velociraprors, when the real raptors were closer to the size of a turkey.

[@KairuHakubi]

@@WobblesandBean I believe the initial idea was deinonychus and they just said velociraptor SOUNDS better, so they went with it. Plus they wanted to be able to have humans in costumes. This does not bother me.

I feel soooo much older! I was actually a projectionist in Houston, TX for Cineplex Odeon and ran this film. It was in the new DTS sound system. I saw this film (@ the theater no fewer than 9 times) Now over the years I've seen it on small screen, but always loved to see audience reaction to it. I remember all the teaser trailers 4 it. Yes! Wayne did a Bang UP job in a role that kicked off a franchise. It remains my favorite of ALL JP's

[@incidentalist]

Oh, to be 10 again seeing this in the theater!! Was GROUND BREAKING at the time!! TY SIR!

[@stpat7614]

Nedry wasn't really a villain in the book. He had a legitimate grievance. Hammond hired him to design the system, didn't give him sufficient information, then blamed him when the system was shown to be full of bugs. Hammond then blackmailed Nedry into making all the corrections with no more pay by slandering Nedry to his potential employers. Had Hammond not done this, the whole disaster at JP would never have happened. Hammond was the true villain.

[@KairuHakubi]

I never thought about it before, but he is a pretty good character. He knows he's just a chubby nerd, someone nobody would think twice about, and he tries to make something of that by infiltrating a place as its IT guy... takes everything with a chill attitude because careful study and planning only got him a tech degree and a boring job. why stress when you have a pretty easy task of stealing from a hugely incompetent, overblown theme park slash mad science lab? but then things go a tiny bit wrong here or there and we see liiiittle cracks in his calm.

[@samlibutti]

[@TemakiTom]

Joe, I could watch your videos all night. In fact, that's exactly what I'm doing!

[@mightyfilm]

There's a non-canonical Lego Jurrasic World cartoon series in which Dennis has a nephew, Danny Neidlemeyer. Dennis does eventually make an appearance as an old recorded video tape with clues to some sort of treasure he was looking for (did I say this was non-canonical?). Unfortunately, they didn't get Wayne Knight to reprise his role. There is also a Lego figure of Dennis, but it's only available in a really big set. I recommend checking it out. It's far superior to the movies it's a prequel to. And the "spitter" dinosaur has always been my favorite, too.

[@probablyaparent]

Check your description, you misspelled "first" in "first up". I randomly spent a solid fifteen minutes lecturing my poor wife on Wayne Knight and why he should be in everything given the nostalgia push of today after showing our youngest "Space Jam" yesterday. With the all the childhood favorites having cameos, new roles on more, I wish I saw Mr. Knight in a whole lot more. He deserves it and my inner child greatly craves it.

[@unsuccessfullyjari]

I love your voice, your calmness, your videos.

[@WobblesandBean]

I never understood why they focused in on the embryo canister getting buried in the mud, either. Same with Ned's first scene, where the camera focuses in on the shaving foam he scrapes off on his pie. I thought for sure they were setting up a Chekov's gun, but no...they were just really, really odd cinematography decisions. I can't help but feel like those were missed opportunities.

[@dreamquesttv]

The canister buried in the mud was meant to emphasize that all of his scheming and planning was for nothing. I thought that was obvious. Also for people not to ask "Duh...where'd that canister go?"

[@Ryo-sj8wn]

What I find funny is Hammonds catch phrase is "Spared no expense" but when it came to Nedry it seems he spared as much expense as he could.

[@GregOrCreg]

Hammond was the *real* villain. He stiffed his employees.

[@Nimroc]

Well that discrepancy largely seem to be because they changed Hammonds character from the book where he was a real scumbag, but kept the scenario largely intact as otherwise we wouldn't have much left of the plot.

I like him too as a villain and he's very well played, I think Wayne Knight and Ariana Richards did the best acting jobs in this film. I also very much like the story of the Jurassic Park game, glad to see that it gets some love here.

[@bryanrizzo9377]

Jurassic Park the game for ps3 was so amazing! Pretty cool that it deals with the embryos and it takes us back to the same location in the movie where Denis met his demise from the Dilo. All these years later the Jeep is still there with Denis laying dead inside of it and it's a spinetingling moment when the dilo jumps out of it.

[@Veronica.A.]

When Nedry said " dont go cheap on me Dodson", he was the one being both greedy and cheap. Also Nedry 's character was shown to be abliar too. He lied and complained about his financial problems to Hammond and nobody else did. Apparently he was the only one having a problem with the salary.

[@someboy5809]

"Life finds a way" to show me how our Mr. Knight portrayed a greedy Dinosaur DNA grabber in the unique "Jurassic Park". Stay safe and keep it up!

[@drygnfyre]

One thing I never really noticed until you kind of pointed it out is that Nedry was generally eloquent and had no trouble speaking. The one time he wasn't eloquent, he was up to no good. That out-of-character moment is something that probably should have tipped off the other staff that something was up, but they never seemed to catch on.

Dennis Nedry is alive

[@kxu9404]

In the novel they expand on his motives, and as a grownup, I even feel a small sympathy. Mild Spoilers: Hammond/Ingen kept all the project in secrecy so kept Nedry working "blindly" (brilliant pun later on) and after some inevitable bugs, they ordered some out of contract additions and modifications to the software without paying him, and even threatening to badmouth him to other companies to keep him on a leash. No wonder he was so fed up. Also his plan was to return to the control room and restore the systems after he delivered the embryos. As a kid, I always though he wanted to ditch the island with the "guy in the boat" and leave everyone to die. His death in the novel is brutal!

[@hanscombe72]

hanscombe72 I loved Nedry! He showcased some of the best early 90s technology. There is I think an early apple Newton/think-pad pda on his desk. It was awesome that he was talking to digitised video with harbour master through his own screen and headset. That cool move synchronising the timer on his Casio databank watch with the timer for the security cameras. The silicon graphics computers. In an age where it was brilliant to see real video on a desktop computer his tech was awesome. I even had a desktop theme disc that had quotes that matched events on windows 95. “Some of the minor systems might go on and off but it’s nothing to worry about it’s just a simple thing”. Rest In Peace Dennis.

He was awesome in Punisher Warzone as Microchip. I knew the story line and still hate seeing it.

[@joseph_b319]

But in the book Nedry's sabotage is not what really caused the break down. It was the complete reliance and automation and systems not being manually checked is what cause JP's downfall.

[@fran3ro]

Nedry's motivation was better explained in the book. He was abused and blackmailed by Hammond to do his work, really heavy programing work, without all the details needed to do it. And then he was underpaid and blamed for the failures. He had several reasons to betray Hammond, not just greed. I never liked that part of Hammond-Nedry realtionship in the movie, it was like a lot was missing, until I read the book.

[@BuddSidewinder]

Thank you! I love Jurassic Park for the characters--more so than the dinosaurs to be honest. And Nedry is my absolute favorite character. I think he's fascinating, fun to watch, and I liked his story. Although he caused so much death, chaos, and destruction (including his own), he also had an understandable motive for doing what he did, although it was wrong--betraying InGen for Biosyn for money. I just think the novel did a better job explaining Nedry's financial situation than the movie did but the movie was my first love... Thanks for making this video!

[@KoopaMedia64]

I watched Jurassic park for the first time recently and I thought Hammond was the actual villain of the movie.

[@KaplanCrack]

The dinosaur was actually created by Spielberg himself. It is not a real dinosaur, but he wanted something like a cobra that spits "acid". I think it was a BBC One Radio interview.

Dilophosaurus was a real dinosaur, the frill and venomous spit were added to make her stand out...she's also not fully grown so that she wouldn't be as big as the Raptors.

I had that action figure, and the Jeep. His character is also why I always wanted one of those Silicon Graphics computers

This movie was a defining part of my childhood. I went to LA a couple years ago to ride the original JP ride at Universal before they revamped it to Jurassic World. I can't express strongly enough how much it felt like being transported into my 8 year old self's imagination. Sad that it's gone now.

If ignorering that some game use that scene later, in the movie you never see him die. So in some time line he is still on the island and looking for that canister, or he just got on the boat, half eating up, but now relaxing on a beach, without arms and legs.

I think he's a favourite because everybody knows a Dennis Nedry xP
