That's exactly the point. They did spare expenses, on a lot of things.

John Hammond Jurassic Park book spoilersJohn Hammond is clearly portrayed as a villain in the book. They lightened him up in the movie.

The movie really dumbed Hammond down to "overly optimistic money guy with a vision". Which was a bit distasteful if you've read the books. Just a bit.

Maybe. I really preferred the movie version. Sometimes I prefer to like characters. I enjoyed the story more.

I liked movie Hammond too, don't get me wrong. It's just a completely different story because of the character shift.

That's how adaptations work. They change stuff around.
