Krakauer mentions was to illustrate how helpless people were and why they might not have been able to go out and rescue people…” Baltasar Kormákur said in statement. The filmmaker did respond to Krakauer’s charges. “Our intention in the tent scene that Mr. This Week In Home Video: ‘Straight Outta Compton,’ ‘The Diary of a Teenage Girl,’ and More What I’m saying is, no one came to my tent and asked.” I’m not saying I could have, or would have. “ Anatoli came to several tents, and not even sherpas could go out. In particular, he’s peeved at a scene in the film in which he’s asked to help rescue Jason Clarke‘s Rob Hall, but declines because he’s snow blind. “I never had that conversation,” writer said. “Anyone who goes to that movie and wants a fact-based account should read ‘ Into Thin Air.’ “ “It’s total bull,” he told The Los Angeles Times. And while the mountain climbing drama has earned mix reviews, it has received a scathing notice from someone intimate with the true story tale: author Jon Krakauer, who was on the climb, and recounted the adventure in his book “ Into Thin Air.” While the movie isn’t based on his work, Krakauer is nonetheless displeased with the results, and in particular, how his character (played by Michael Kelly) is portrayed. “ Everest” is now in theaters, giving everyone IMAX and 3D enhanced vertigo, at least until “ The Walk” opens.

I expect we'll be hearing much more but, in the meantime, a sneak peak into the mind of Brian Lynch.īrian Lynch: How do you think fans would take Spike and George doing it? Because they're about to.īuffyfest: I think they'll love it! On Opposite Day.īrian Lynch: Kidding. We were talking about the recent tendency towards sudden, unexpected sexy time in both the Buffy and Angel books and, as you'll see, that affected the tenor of the conversation a bit. Do you know what I love best? Lollipops! But, also, that Brian shot me a message out of the blue to make random comments about his upcoming Spike ongoing series. Many of the details that gave Star Trek its futuristic feel-medical monitors, hand-held communications devices, automatically sliding doors-have become reality. “He said, ‘I wanted to know that if it’s not probable, it’s at least possible.’” “Roddenberry told me, ‘I wanted scientists to be able to watch our show, believe it, enjoy it and not laugh at it,’” says Marc Cushman, co-author of These Are The Voyages, a three-volume set about the making of the series. The goal of scientific accuracy began with the creator and executive producer, Gene Roddenberry. This year the cult series celebrates the 50th anniversary of its September 8 premiere. Then, in 1966, came Star Trek, setting the new gold standard of scientific plausibility in TV entertainment. So these fictional life-forms would in reality collapse under their own weight. Unfortunately, as a body’s height is squared, its volume is cubed. Pretty far-fetched, considering that comets are made of ice, rock and dust.Įven quality shows like The Twilight Zone made gaffes, as in the 1962 episode “The Little People,” which postulated humanoids hundreds of feet high. In one early segment a comet’s heat somehow threatens to fry a couple of members of the spacefaring Robinson family. In the early days of television, small-screen science fiction generally ignored the laws of nature, technology and common sense.

While Olga embodies the “perfect” Mexican daughter, valuing family above all, Julia longs to get out of Chicago and go to a university. Julia has always lived in her sister’s shadow. And, I argue, it depicts the experience of depression realistically and with care. I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter, though, focuses on depression- one of the more common and “least sexy” mental illnesses there is. This book had been on my reading list for a long time, and I am glad I finally got to read it! A lot of times, I think YA focusing on mental illness tends to choose the more “sexy” (for lack of a better word) mental illnesses- mental illnesses where it feels like the character is about to burst or that provide an exciting climax for the story.
