* NotIllegalJustification: Ludlow uses this to justify him and his team of poachers travelling to Isla Sorna to steal some of the dinosaurs living there and bring them back to the mainland to put them in a theme park of his own, despite knowing how well that worked for his uncle with the last park: these creatures are extinct animals brought back to life by ''his'' company, and therefore are ''his'' personal property to do with as he pleases.

* GreatWhiteHunter: He's about as close as you'll get to this trope being played straight in the modern day. He was technically a game warden, though, but the look and the 'tude were there; close enough. Muldoon was really something of a subversion in that he leaned more toward the ''anti''-heroic end of the scale. He is not portrayed in a particularly romantic manner, and is in fact an embittered, highly cynical man who hates the raptors and wishes he could kill them all -- and considering what happens throughout the course of the film, it's hard to blame him.

* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: By default, he thinks the best of everyone initially. He's right in his pronouncements about Grant and Sattler being good people, but he badly miscalculates with Dennis Nedry: he trusted the PlayfulHacker enough to give him sole authority over the park's security and computer systems, then underpaid him and thought he would still do his job as prescribed. Instead, Nedry took a bribe to perform industrial espionage for Hammond's competitor, causing the disaster.

Instead, they make it clear they have a lot of moral issues with Jurassic Park and the revival of the dinosaurs. Only the [[AmoralAttorney lawyer]] ends up siding with Hammond for purely profit-driven reasons.

* ALessonLearnedTooWell: Malcolm certainly thinks that Hammond at best went through this trope after the events of the [[Film/JurassicPark1993 first movie]]. In the first movie, Hammond was a kindly but hubristic entrepeneur, and part of the main reasons why his titular park failed and everything went to hell with the dinosaurs breaking loose was because Hammond didn't understand that creating genetically-engineered dinosaurs for the first time in history didn't automatically give him complete control and understanding of them, nor of the consequences of getting so far ahead of modern science. Come ''Film/TheLostWorldJurassicPark'', and a humbled Hammond has admitted he was wrong and has become an environmentalist, actively committed to ensuring that the surviving dinosaurs on the abandoned Site B island are left alone by humans to thrive in the new ecosystem they've formed without human intervention. But when his former company sends a team to plunder the island for dinosaur specimens for a new Jurassic Park on the mainland, Hammond is willing to send a team of hardcore environmentalists of his own to counter them, which Malcolm thinks only puts more people in danger -- indeed, the environmentalist team's actions place ''everyone'' on both sides in danger and get a ''lot'' of people killed by the dinosaurs, especially since one of them is actually an undercover EcoTerrorist. As Malcolm puts it, Hammond didn't repeat the same mistakes but he did make whole new ones.

* ComplexityAddiction: The vision he had for his park is excessively complicated what with how determined he is to use the most advanced technology available for everything when more mundane solutions would likely suffice. It is designed with so much automation in mind (with even the tour conducted with fully automated cars) that the entire island could theoretically be run by a skeleton crew for three days. Unfortunately, this means all the electric, security, and network systems are full of bugs, there are a great many things that can go wrong at anytime, and when everything gets shut down, just figuring out how to get them up and running again proves difficult. And that's without taking the poorly understood and very dangerous animals into account.
