Wuiu Planet Money On Why Horror Films Are The Best Investment In Hollywood
launched this week, sparking a national discussion on the psychological link between isolationism and self-destruction, along with toilet pools and incest. We took our questions straight to series producers and directors the Lego Movie guys , Phil Lord and Chris Miller. Spoilers ahead 8230; io9: What was it like when you pitched Last Man on Earth [Were people open to a series that starred only one person] Phil Lord: Strangely enough, and I don ;t know how many episodes you ;ve seen, this was a really hot pitch even though it a really outlandish idea. At that point Will was only attached as a writer, but he came up with a plan that was so appealing and full of surprises. And even though it was a big, silly idea it was grounded in emotional honesty and things we all experience. How do you deal with loneliness What parts of society should we hold on to, and which ones don ;t we need What makes life worth living, essentially. Those things were really big and universal that a lot of the networks wanted a piece of it. Fox obviously wanted it more than anybody else. [They had] passi

It hasn ;t changed since then, and so represents a look at what animals of that particular time period were like. And it has a spot on the top of its head, which the closest thing anybody has to a third eye. An extra eye presents a lot of evolutionary benefits. Being able to

By examining the physiology and development of these species, from humans all the way back to the well-developed parietal eye of the tuatara, scientists are figuring out how later species lost a third eye, and what we might have gained in its stead. Perhaps the most notable feature of the third eye is that it not symmetrical. Drop a line down the center of a body, even a developing body, and it almost certain that the left and the right side will match. That how regular eyes develop. They start off as dents in the developing roundness of the head. As the dents grow inwards, the finer structures of the eye develop. The parietal eye doesn ;t
