and once when Goldblum swatted the dog,
both of which seemed like they might have been ad libs?

That was a very lame attempt at satire, in my eyes.
Pointless and unfunny... and I'm a Bill Murray fan.

An example of good satire, for me, was 'Galaxy Quest'...
and I'm NOT a Tim Allen fan.
It was clever and entertaining.
Two qualities that were absent in 'The Life Aquatic'.
