A March 2021 helicopter crash that killed Czech billionaire Petr Kellner was most likely caused by a pilot error and inadequate training, according to a report by the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board.
Kellner was president of the investment group Ppf and was the Czech Republic’s richest man when he was killed in a heli-skiing crash in Alaska. Kellner died alongside Sean McManamy, Gregory Harms, Benjamin Larochaix and pilot Zachary Russell. The sole survivor survivor of the crash was David Horvath.
Horvath told investigators that the helicopter flew from Wasilla Lake to an area for a skiing day on March 27, 2021. Russell attempted to land on a Knik Glacier ridgeline at around 6,200-foot altitude for the last run of the day.
The Ntsb said that “the pilot’s failure to adequately respond to an encounter with whiteout conditions, which resulted in the helicopter’s collision with terrain.”

As the old saying goes, you can make it fast, you can make it cheap, and you can make it good, but you can’t have all three. In the case of STXfilms and Alibaba’s UglyDolls, it was the first two points making for a disastrous start at the box office of $8.5M for this reported $45M-$53M net production, intended to launch the mini-major’s foray into the feature animation space.
Based on this weekend’s box office results, it’s clear that the doll line isn’t as universal as originally perceived by Stx. Stx eventually got ahold of UglyDolls and believed that the property would resonate over in China. While the pic has yet to lock down a release date there, box office history for family pics in China is against UglyDolls: family fare under-indexes there, with even Pixar films challenged.

But when Moxy decides to venture into The Big World and find her perfect kid, she and her friends encounter the perfect — and mean — preppy doll, Lou (Nick Jonas).

Summer break is fast approaching so it must be time for another toy “tie-in” feature animated flick. Well, to be honest, the “break’ thing shouldn’t matter since this subject’s “core” audience is probably “pre-pre-k” (guess that’s a thing). Early this year we saw the follow-up to the surprise hit The Lego Movie from 2014. So, how about another “property” that’s a tad more cuddly than those hard interlocking plastic blocks. We’re a few months away from the fourth visit with Woody, Buzz, and their pals so maybe this is a “softer warm-up” showcasing a toy line that’s been around since 2001 (that long…I am so out of it). And, going by the brand name, we may be in for a lesson or two with the big screen debut of Uglydolls.

For a disposable piece of children’s entertainment that features Pit Bull as the voice of a one-eyed, party-mad puppy named Ugly Dog, there’s something refreshingly straightforward about how “UglyDolls” goes about its agenda. At no point in its mercifully brief running time does this colorful pop confection pretend that it’s anything more than an 88-minute commercial for an innocuous brand of plush toys, and for that we should be grateful. Sure, it’s not as psychedelic as “Trolls,” nor as impressive a monument to the mediocrity of late capitalism as “The Angry Birds Movie,” but at a time when the typical animated movie spends $100 million trying to exhaust its young audience into submission, it’s kinda nice to see one that costs half that much, and tries half as hard.

The origin story of the Uglydoll brand, a line of cute yet odd-looking creations that were quite literally born out of love, is about as romantic as the story from The Notebook. David Horvath and Sun-Min Kim are not just the co-creators of the line, but also a happily married couple, and the idea for the dolls was inspired by a drawing David whipped up in a letter he sent to his then-girlfriend, who at the time was living far away from him. To make a long story short, Sun-Min Kim ended up sewing together the very first proto-uglydoll, bringing David’s drawing to life as a surprise gift. With that bit of handcrafted collaboration and inspiration, the Uglydoll brand was born in 2001. Now, over a decade later, the brand is stronger and more successful than ever; that original Diy doll has spawned hundreds of adorable little friends, oodles of...
