Bearing in mind the conversation I just had with Chris Picard I will try to be nice to you, but I’m honestly finding it very difficult not to question your intelligence because the ideas being discussed here are not that complex and I’ve already explained it all in detail to you in my previous reply, yet here we are again... It’s like you’ve literally read NOTHING of the previous comments between Peter and myself, but still feel the need to blindly interject. Read it all again (actually read it this time, don’t just skim), and then by all means tell us what you think.
So, (despite running out of patience) let me see if I can explain this as politely and simply as possible.
“Thats what your basing your facts off of? Really?”
No, not really – because that’s not how things work. You don’t base facts off stuff, facts are facts. I’m presenting a hypothesis based on evidence which is derived from the facts;
The only facts we are considering are that this is an old boat – a model made at some point prior to 1989, and it has age damage – peeling paint.
From those facts we are toying with the POSSIBILITY that this ferry will feature in a flashback scene because;
-
The ferry is at least 26 years old now (though it still looks futuristic) and presumably Patel will equip the new park with brand new vehicles, just as Hammond spared no expense in the early 90’s. Back when Hammond was building the original park, this ferry would have been brand new, so it makes sense that it is something from the original park, as there are much more advanced boats available today for Patel to choose from – why would he choose an old boat for his new park?
-
Why would a new company with enough money to rescue InGen from bankruptcy and resurrect Jurassic Park from the ruins it was, suddenly become stingy about applying a new coat of paint to an old boat?! That doesn’t inspire confidence in the minds of any hesitant potential visitors.
“... And I like to look at all angles of a situation...”
I’m not getting that from reading your comments.
“But really? Your inferring, Correction, Guessing all of this.”
That’s what a hypothesis is.
“It wouldn't be from the original park, Because Patel Corp, Wants to shell out Millions on this park, Make it better then the old park...”
For the last bloody time; NO ONE is suggesting that it is a relic from the old park being re-used in the new one! I honestly don’t get how that is so hard for you to understand!
It will either be
-
A ferry that the Patel Corporation has purchased after taking over InGen and is currently using to transport visitors to a and from Isla Nublar.
Or
2). It will be something that features in the flashback scene (based on the age damage and the fact that it is at least 26 years old i.e; not a state of the art model ferry).
So far the evidence suggests that it will possibly be the latter.
“Usually in a company take over, you remove all assets of the older company...”
Remind me never to hire you to run any of my companies. REALLY? You buy a dying company, paying hundreds of millions of dollars to settle its outstanding legal debts, and acquire all of its physical assets – and then you scrap it all?!?! NO, of course not. You sell off what you can, and you use anything that will still be useful in making you more money.
“Even if it was unused, about to be shipped to Nublar before the incident, You still wouldn't use it in a new park, Almost Twenty years later...”
And for the ZILLIONTH TIME; no one is suggesting that! Read option 1 and option 2 again.
(By the way; I’ve presented plenty of good reasons why a company would actually re-use assets, you have yet to give me one good reason why one would not).
“The Peeling, Shows that it's been put through its trials, A proven sailing ship.”
The peeling shows that it is old and neglected, an abandoned boat. Two can play at that game...
Or seeing how a fair amount of this is CGI, Thats the actual boat itself, that is just being used, But will be touched up on the actual film, Thanks to our "Magical" Friends at ILM.
Why would Universal spend hundreds of dollars to pay a crew of digital effects artists to cover up some peeling paint on a prop (you’d think they have bigger things to worry about, like animating the CGI dinosaurs), when they could simply buy a bucket of white paint for $25 and have some extra spend 1 hour sanding and re-painting that part of the ferry?!
Since you are unaware, ILM will not be working on Jurassic World any more since Universal studios has acquired Legendary Pictures.
(Funny that, how Universal acquired Legendary and then put them to work rather than scrapping them...)
If it was a flashback scene... Why would it bear the crest of the new park?
Ok, now I know you didn’t read or (evidently) understand any of the previous comments between Peter and myself, because I answered this EXACT same question and he agreed that my answer was at least plausible.
Think back to the first movie. The insignia on the doors of the gas powered jeeps are the JP logo with a red background. The insignia on the doors of the ford explorers is the Jurassic Park rex in a circle with a yellow background. There’s no reason that an InGen boat would not have the same insignia (which it does) only with a blue background (as it thematically relates to water). Other than the skeleton being in silver, the logo is no different. It makes sense for it to be in silver on a blue background otherwise it wouldn’t show up (black stands out easily enough on a red or yellow background, not so much on a blue background).
You need to take your own advice, and calm down.
All we are doing is assessing the evidence at hand and suggesting possible explanations. Photos could surface tomorrow proving this all wrong (which incidentally would also prove you wrong since it would mean that Patel has bought a 26 year old ferry to transport visitors to and from Nublar with).
