...Rain plays a big role in the movie. Was that ever the real stuff? The irony is that you can't use real rain to make movies. We would get nice beautiful, perfectly formed drops coming out of the sky and I'd be like, 'Why aren't we shooting this?'

The authors don't overintellectualize failure; they are strictly from the school of Those Who Cannot Remember the Past Are Condemned to Repeat It.

...snapped up and devoured several people over the last several months. When we took a boat trip on the lake late one afternoon, we got to see crocodiles sunning themselves on the shore, including one specimen more than 12 ft. long - most of it jaws. Cuteness is a nice evolutionary trait, but when it comes to long-term survival, you can't beat fear...
