Crichton Cast

Welcome, to the Crichton Cast! This week, Steven and Eric read, watch, and listen to another of Michael Crichton’s earlier works: The Terminal Man.

Written in 1972, the Terminal Man is Crichton’s tale of the dangers of computer AI, and the possibility of “mind control” via implanted computers.

Listen as the Crew of the Crichton Cast discuss the writing, the themes, the drama, and the action of this intriguing novel. We’ll also break down the differences made when the film was translated to film just 2 years later in 1974.

We talk about the acting, the writing, and most importantly the differences made for on screen adaptation. Some of which we felt fit the story well, and others we felt made little sense.

In addition to reading the written word, and watching the movie, the guys did something a little different this time and also LISTENED to the novel in audiobook format. We discuss the difference in perception of listening vs reading and talk a bit about the recording itself.

If you are reading this you must be a fan of Michael Crichton just as we are. Whether you love the science in his writing, the adventurous places it takes you or just fell in love with dinosaurs on the big screen we will have something for you.

Every two weeks, in a mini-series format Steve and Eric will discuss a book of Michael Crichton’s which was made into a movie. Compare both mediums, discuss the good and bad, our takes on what worked and interesting facts. Listen in and discuss with us!

Welcome, to the Crichton Cast! Steven and Eric are back to discuss another of Michael Crichton’s early works and it’s film adaptation!

This week, we go in-depth to discuss Crichton’s only novel released under his “medical drama” pseudonym; Jeffery Hudson. We’ll discuss the political implications of the source material and it’s impact in it’s time. We also talk about the writing style, the action, the dialog and more!

We then compare and contrast the 1968 novel to it’s 1972 film adaptation; The Carey Treatment! In some ways very true to the book, but in other ways very different. Listen to hear what we thought of the changes made, the cast, the action… everything!

Welcome, to The Crichton Cast!

This week, we’re starting from the beginning… well, the beginning of Michael Crichton’s adapted works, anyway, with The Andromeda Strain.

Steve and Eric go in-depth to talk about the 1969 novel, the 1971 film adaptation, and the 2008 Television Mini Series adaptation of Crichton’s first work published under his own name. Listen as we discuss the differences between the formats, and what changes we thought were good… and not so good.

Be warned, we do talk about major plot points from all three formats, so if you haven’t seen, or read the source material, there may be spoilers!
