A Paleontologists take on the critters of PandoraDorking around in Maya today

Repo Men

Not a remake of the trippy 80’s cult film.  Looks like a good ride film,… Jude Law as a muscleboy?  Really?

Excellent! I Completely agree with him! It’s great to see a professional’s opinion on the xenibiology of a fictional alien moon. I have a book that discusses (in detail) more facts about Pandora, as well as its botany. I didn’t think the viperwolves were that bad, and they didn’t look like Falcor the Luckdragon to me. Personally, I think Falcor looks like a giant flying tampon.

*xenobiology. spelling error. Another thing I liked about his comments on a lot of the predators was how he (like me) hates the “super-predator syndrome” that a lot of Hollywood beasties get when they have a few minutes of screen time. Real predators really don’t go ape-s**t like the Thanator did for just one little prey item. (when it went after Jake.) It’s the same as how the T. Rex from Jurassic park spent so much time and effort and destruction when hunting to the human protagonists. It’s like a wolf going after a caterpillar; it just wouldn’t happen.

Also- Repo Men looks great. It has some Minority Report flavor to me, and it’s been a while since I saw Jude Law in a film. I think the last time I saw him was in Sky Captain, which was disappointing. Everything in that movie looked blurry and fake… egh. Didn’t like it. Hope this one’s much more intelligent and gripping.

Why do they have the Marathon logo from Bungie on their necks, and one on the coffee cup?

Actually,… it looks like this is the Marathon logo.
