@@tedytarrifyThat was honestly my first thought. He was pretty much the only survivor who had a stake or culpability in/for the island, or perhaps he wouldn't keep quiet. Dunno. Sucks either way if he did die after surviving all that, I was glad he had.
@@cliveisfit A Mary Sue is a character trope, often a self insert of the writer or, to use a metaphor, a pair of pants for the reader to slip into. They are typified by having few, if any, character flaws, possessed of numerous talents with little background explanation and often being discovered at plot critical moments. They tend to be nearly universally liked or even loved by other characters in the story, even if that means the others act out of character. The Mary Sue can only die tragically as the universe is often bent around them in order to accommodate their story. Though Mary Sue is a female name, the character need not be one. Although Gary Stu is often used as a male alternative. The first time I heard the term was in reference to a male character. The origin of the term is from a 70s-ish Star Trek fanfiction written satirically. I'm not sure who in this story is a Mary Sue. Malcolm is certainly a self insert for Crichton's views, just as he was in Jurassic Park, and he often has characters placed in order to explain the more technical concepts in his stories, but I dunno if I'd call him a Mary Sue.
@@SatanLiterallythanks for describing this. I had heard the term Mary Sue occasionally but never understood it. Is it an American saying? I'm in the UK and usually only hear it involving American movies/books.
@@Bhodiman the term is American in origin, but I've heard it used by overseas UA-camrs. It may be more popular over here though. It's come under fire as a form a criticism primarily because it's a female name and people seem to think that means only female characters can be Mary Sues or that the criticism is only directed at female characters, but as I said, the first time I heard it was in reference to a male character. The problem I see with it is that its meaning has become diluted and people just use it to describe very powerful characters or characters deliberately written as God or Christ-like figures. Superman is a good example. He's not a Mary Sue because he has so many abilities and is so much stronger than everyone else, he is deliberately written as a paragon of various virtues and an example of what good can be done through selfless wielding of power. Which isn't to say a poor writer can't take Superman and make him a Mary Sue, but he isn't one inherently because of his powers and virtues.
Thank you for uploading these! It’s so hard to find a good audiobook for the lost world!
Damn bro imagine surviving a velociraptor attack only to die a few years later from dysentery💀💀
I'd have dysentery like symptoms if a velocoraptor attacked me 😅😅😅
What is dysentery?
But was it dysentery? Or was he assassinated to keep him quiet?

Every single book in the past 30 years had nothing but Mary sues.

What on earth is a Mary sue?
