They filmed it in Mexico, instead of the original place (Dardanelles), where the sea is at the west 😀 Huge distraction!

Right now I’m deep in my story building process – basically taking my story and reworking it from the ground up – and I don’t want to rush the process in time for November. But I should try to dissect a movie some time! Lately, I’m dissecting the books I read and it’s been great learning.

Jeff Goldblum’s character tries to sync up with the alien space ship and infect it with a virus using… a Mac Powerbook. At the time (1996), compatible with virtually NOTHING ELSE.

Look at U-571 – Jon Bon Jovi rescues an Enigma machine in 1942…even though the British had already acquired one in May 1941. Details like that will really get up readers’ noses if you get them wrong!

It is one of my indications if a person really knows about guns.

I’m really looking forward to your critique of my first 20 pages from the last class. I’m sure it will be extremely helpful. You’re wonderful to offer such a service.
