Planet Earth - The Making of an Epic Series
The best stories are the true ones, and there can be few BBC series that have generated as many gripping tales as "Planet Earth". With producers and camera people travelling to every continent and almost every corner of the world, from the highest mountains to the lowest depths, their adventures have been many and unforgettable. Using every kind of craft and technological wizardry imaginable, from helicopters and submersibles, to satellites and remote cameras, they have also witnessed remarkable things. And what makes so much of the series special are the unique aerial perspectives from which they have filmed so many of the animals. This book tells the dramatic tales of their encounters, discoveries and many trials and tribulations. Also revealed are the ingenious means by which some of the unique sequences in the series have been made. Memorable sequences filmed in the wild include wild camels in the snow in the Gobi desert, a giant (truly giant) salamander hunting at night, desert lions capturing an oryx, golden snub-nosed monkeys playing high in the mountains of China, a giant panda in a cave tending her tiny newborn and a snow leopard chasing its prey down a sheer rock face. Used for the first time in any book are special photographs taken from high-definition film footage, which will bring the tales to life.

Snakes on a Plane: The Guide to the Internet Sssssssssensation (Paperback)
Not since "Jaws" has a movie been so feverishly anticipated, and not since "The Blair Witch Project" has an underground cult film been transformed into an international phenomena by the tireless work of the fans themselves. An action film starring the king of action himself, Samuel L. Jackson, "Snakes on a Plane" was hailed as the "sleeper hit of the summer" by Stephen King in "Entertainment Weekly". Its buildup is perplexing and impossible-to-ignore, and has been featured on CNN, NPR, "The Washington Post", "The Chicago Tribune", "The Hollywood Reporter", and on legions of blogs and web sites. Reportedly, New Line Cinema retitled the film "Pacific Flight 121", provoking outrage in cyberland and by even Jackson himself. Now comes "Snakes on a Plane: The Guide to the Internet Sssssensation", an homage to the fans themselves and the Internet's buildup that convinced the producers to bring back the stars for re-shoots in order to satisfy the expectations of the fans. "Snakes on a Plane" is lavishly illustrated, featuring much of the fan's original artwork.
