Greek! “Helico” for helical (like a helix), and “pter” for wing (like as in pteranodon)

I was a Sierra On-Line junkie

Yes, I played it

The first game in the series, The Castle of Dr. Brain, was my favorite

Like I said, the ones I remember liking the best are THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN and SPHERE. THE LOST WORLD is kinda more of the same, though has some stuff in it I liked better than stuff in the movie. I've read a few more and was entertained but I'm not sure I could really capital-R Recommend them.

I read the book in 7th grade, I think even before the movie had been announced, I then tore through THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN and SPHERE, both of which I loved

But yeah Crichton is definitely more of an idea guy, you can tell he tries but his characters are always pretty wooden

I'm holding out upgrading until the back of the phone is so covered with cameras it triggers a trypophobic reaction

Yeah, it seemed like the people who made it put a lot of love and craft into it

I still can’t believe they captured the classic Little Golden Book style so well, it’s one of my favorite aesthetics

Oh no! Alas, I follow you for your blazin’ hot takes. I’ll be sure to unfollow you at my earliest convenience.
