    This man is criminally underrated. (ha)
    He’s so knowledgable, fantastic anecdotes, and understands that film is for entertainment and dramatizations are necessary.
    Cannot wait for more technique critique!

    When she smells the towel she says “chlorine”. The person who owned that robe must’ve been named Chlorine. And I think Chlorine liked to pee in the pool.

    I’d love him to comment on The Fall. I thought these were some of the most pristine csi scenes ever and it was the first time that i saw such care being used to show that they don’t want to contaminate the scene, they had head to toe protective suits, masks and even some panels to step on so that they wouldn’t touch the floor and the main detective waited until everything was photographed and sampled before she even came in and while inside they tried not to touch anything even with gloves on. I do think there was a moment with a pen though 😀 but I might be misremembering it

    Aw, I wanna see the original (and excellent) Robocop instead.

    The main theme of No Country for Old Men is growing old and no longer being able to understand the world. Everything Tommy Lee Jones was doing… was essentially indicative to his old style of policing in a small rural west Texas town where drugs and gun slayings weren’t all that common. Hence, the horses and sloppy forensics. He’s just a sheriff in a tiny little town, not a big city CSI badass.

  34. Stacey Taylor

    November 10, 2019 at 9:50 pm

    I want just to pick his brain all day. I so want a job in forensics.

  35. NOT OF THIS WORLD

    November 10, 2019 at 9:52 pm

    So with all this knowledge. Cant they find enough evidence to put murderers and evilness away in jail for life? Especially OJ Simpson, Laci Peterson and Chris Watts story and much more.

    Real silencers are nothing like what you hear in TV and movies. They do decrease the sound somewhat, but it’s still loud and noticeable to anyone in the area.

  38. ????????Jo????????

    I love these, they’re so interesting.

Mythology expert and Professor of classics Peter Meineck deep dives into all 48 of the constellations the ancient Greeks used in the night sky. From maritime navigation to agriculture and timekeeping, Meineck explains how eight main groupings of constellations were tracked in the night sky—and how they translate to today’s mythological storytelling.

Check out Peter’s book here:

WIRED recommends:

What do Iron Man and Odysseus have in common? The book traces Marvel’s intricate universe back to its earliest mythological roots. Meineck uses beloved heroes like Spider-Man and antiheroes like Deadpool to demonstrate how ancient themes persist in today’s pop culture. He draws compelling parallels, connecting Black Panther to the legend of Atlantis and revealing how disabled heroes like Daredevil have archetypes dating back to Hercules. The book explores the shared struggles of characters like Scarlet Witch and the sorceress Medea, showing how these timeless narratives have shifted to reflect society’s changing values.
