(more) Added: October 01, 2007 with Michael Jackson - Will You Be There Some of us will never understand why this boy-and-his-whale tale became the hit family film of 1993 and one of the bestselling videos of all time. But it is easy to see how clever marketing and a tear-jerking story could touch the hearts of kids and parents the world over, especially because the endangered Orca whale named Willy is such a majestic creature. The story couldn't be more conventional--it's like Old Yeller and The Black Stallion with a big sea mammal--but as the boy who comes to Willy's aid against the whale's exploitative owner, young Jason James Richter gives an appealing performance with which children can readily identify. After two sequels and an animated television series, this popular film also had a happy real-life ending: Keiko the whale (who plays Willy) recovered from failing health and was gradually trained to survive outside of captivity.

Emmet Walsh Mykelti Williamson John Considine Laszlo Kovacs Director Dwight H. Little Cast Jason James Richter August Schellenberg Rene Russo Director Sam Pillsbury The Orca (Orcinus orca) is the largest member of the dolphin family (order Cetacea, subfamily Delphinidae) and a versatile predator. It is also known as a Killer Whale or Great Killer Whale, even though it is not a whale. The Killer Whale name is actually a corruption of the older Killer of Whales?the species is known to prey on juvenile and small cetaceans. Another term for the animal is Grampus. "Orca" is a latin word meaning both whale and demon. The word is the origin of orc, a legendary monster. The animals are distinctively marked, with a black back, white chest and sides and a white patch above and behind the eye. They have a heavy and stocky body and a large dorsal fin. Males can be up to 9.5 metres long (a little over 31 feet) and weigh as much as 10 tons; females are smaller, reaching 8.5 metres (about 28 feet) at most and a weight of 7 or 8 tons. Calves at birth weight about 180 kg and are about 2.4 metres long (about 8 feet). At about 1.8m (about 6 feet), the dorsal fin of the male is taller than the female's, and more upright. From a distance, females and juveniles can be confused with various dolphin and porpoise species. An Orca's diet depends entirely on availability, although pods can specialize and thus ignore potential prey. It is believed they require around 60kg of food daily. Their prey includes twenty species of cetaceans, five species of pinniped (seals), thirty species of fish (particularly salmon), seven species of bird and two species of squid, in addition to a variety of other sea creatures, occasionally including larger whales such as Fin Whales, Minke Whales, Gray Whales, or even young Blue Whales. Orcas even hunt and kill Great White Sharks for their nutrient-rich livers and to eliminate competitors for food. It is from their attacks on whales that they gained their name; they do not attack humans. Orcas have one of the most sophisticated ultrasonic sounds of all animals who use this method of communication. Not only do they have regional "dialects", which produce slight variations in sound depending on their geographical distribution but each animal has two distinct 'callsigns'. One which distinguishes them as an individual and another that identifies the pod they belong to. Orca has been targeted in commercial whaling, but catches are now insignificant. In the 1950s the U.S. Air Force, at the request of the Icelandic government used bombers and riflemen to slaughter orcas in Icelandic waters because they compete with humans for fish. The operation was considered a great success at the time. In recent years, the Orca's intelligence, trainability, striking appearance, playfulness in captivity and its sheer size have made it a popular public aquarium or zoo attraction. This, combined with the fact that the animal is not aggressive towards humans, has led to the image of the species being rehabilitated from an object of fear like Great White Sharks to a respected predator, worthy of toleration, like the wolf in the United States. Orcas in captivity may develop pathologies such as dorsal fin collapse, seen in 60-90% of captive males. The Rescue, The Adventure Home

9-5-02 Brenda Part One
9-5-02 Brenda Part One Jason picks the lock in one of the rooms in Alcazar's boat. Brenda is on the other side of the door. Jason tells her that she is safe with him and that he is a friend and works for Sonny Corinthos and he is there to help her. Brenda recognizes Jason's voice but is afraid to tell him who she is. Jason gets into the room with no sign of Brenda. He sees another door and goes toward it. When he opens it, Brenda's nurse is on the other side and not Brenda. She refuses to help Jason and Alcazar and his men come in and catch Jason. Alcazar orders him men to kill Jason and make no mistakes this time. They drag a fighting Jason out on deck and try to kill him. Jason fights back and knocks both men down and dives overboard after both men try to shoot at him in the water. Brenda tries to sneak out of the room but Alcazar catches her and stops her from going to help Jason. She hears the gunshots and gets worried. Alcazar tries to reassure her that everything will be alright. He puts her on a guilt trip by mentioning that everything he has done so far has been for her. He tells her he is doing everything in his power to stop Jax and Sonny from learning about her. She tells him that she doesn't want both men hurt or killed and Alcazar promises not to hurt them that way. Brenda leaves the room but stays close by. Roy shows up to meet with Alcazar. Brenda overhears Alcazar order Roy to kill Sonny for him. Roy refuses to kill anyone for Alcazar, even Sonny. Brenda is disturbed by Alcazar's deception.
