For once i read a book before watching the movie, and i must say like usually any move based off of a book tends to suck. Into The Wild wasn’t quite like that, the movie was fairly accurate although Holly Wood had to add some Drama, While maintaining a lot of Christopher Mccandless personality. For those of you who don’t know what the book is about, and in trying to keep this short. Its about a Young man in his early 20s who takes to the road after his graduation, basically separating him self from his family on the east coast. Christopher travels around the country mainly on the west coast and meets a lot of interesting people along the way. He ends up in Alaska were he embarks on the greatest adventure of his life. This adventure will bring disaster for him and his family.

Jon Krakauer, the author of the book needed to clear up some things written in his article that was published in Outside Mag. And how Christopher’s adventure parallel his own life as a young man, the main difference is that Jon survived.

If you were anything like me and wondered why you cared at what point a train leaving Chicago would intercept a train leaving New York at. The Physics of Superheroes puts you in the rite frame of mind, the crime fighting frame of mind, and makes you think about the possibility and realities of a lot of comic book characters powers and even thought they might not exist, it could be in the realm of possibility.

Written by a physics professor and long-time comic-book fan James Kakalios, he Talks about the Physics behind memorable moments in comic book history. One example most people know about is the death of Gwen Stacy and the forces acting upon in her final moments.

Recommended as a good read.
