I hope they do this right, and it becomes the Big Wednesday of big wall climbing.

I asked Largo last week at the Robbins memorial who/when the "psychoanalysis" of American climbing found Warren to be the id and Royal the super-ego came about...

y'all remember your Freudian psychoanalysis...
I didn't, Largo corrected me in the identification with the super-ego (I erroneously had thought ego).

the rest of the climbing cast could essentially play the role of the ego, which mediates between the id and the super-ego... this is outlined in Downward Bound's Appendix with Warren's "Zone System" (he certainly had zingers for everyone, Ansel Adams included).

while overly simplistic, it captures the time
and is the basis of many of the videos currently circulating
getting you into the head of American climbing.

+1 w/Mike. LOL!

I'm with Dingus on his suggested "Warren". Downey could pull off Robbins. Not sure if they'll supplement the Iron Man costume (aka bolt puller) for the Dawn Wall section.
