Ok this might be me being a bit a think here but what's the significance of the shaving can when it falls out of Nedry's coat when he gets attacked by the dilophosaurus?
When it gets buried in the mud, I think it's maybe a representation of the end of Nedry's chapter.
shareAhh ok thanks!
shareYeah no worries... that's what it always seemed like to me anyway... just HAHA Nedry's *beep* No getting to east dock on time, no dinosaur embryo's for poor old Lewis Dodgson, sucked in greedy rival company! to me that's all it was really trying to do seeing the can get covered in mud
shareI always thought the can and embryos getting buried in the mud was just symbolic of the dinosaurs becoming fossils...And them being lost forever
shareI had a friend who said that that shot indicated an opportunity for a sequel. I disagreed, feeling that it was symbolic of the inevitability that the futility of man would spell his doom and that nature always prevails. The can itself is a symbol of all of the dinosaurs being buried once again. I can see that as a symbol of their possible resurrection, though. But none of the sequels included the can.
shareTo me it showed that mankind is not a superior species. Consider everything he went thru to steal the embryos and they all just get lost and washed away due to his arrogance and carelessness, not to mention a tropical storm.
