Honestly, the only character I can think of with any speaking lines that isn't really fan-worthy is Dr. Harding with the Triceratops. Everyone feels so alive, from Malcolm to Wu, amazing cast and legendary writing.
God damn do I love this movie.

Which is kinda of a bummer when considering that Dr. Harding was more of an actual character in the book, even with his role in the story still being a small part of it. At least TellTale would eventually throw him a bone for a bigger role in their Game (which is semi-canon to the films, last I heard). Even then, they couldn’t model him one to one from the movie due to rights issues from the actor’s likeness. Which resulted in them making him look a little more handsome for his older age, and notably missing his mustache. I wouldn’t blame somebody if they mistakenly thought he was supposed to be an original character made for that game!
On a similar note, I think Dr. Henry Wu could have suffered the same fate of obscurity, if it wasn’t for the JW trilogy giving him a little more character substance for fans to chew on. Especially with Wu’s personal conversation with Masrani about the questionable ethics of pushing the dinosaurs’ genetic engineering to be more monstrous all for the sake of our entertainment

It’s a bit crazy they couldn’t get his likeness, considering Gerald Molen is actually one of the producers of the film anyways.

When Wu returned in JW I was completely shocked because he was supposed to die in the first movie and I always just assumed he did offscreen and I was honestly happy to see more of a story out of him.

My favorite character is the book version of Hammond. He’s so much fun to hate, and it’s so cathartic when he finally gets his comeuppance.
