The 4 Most Annoying Scientific Inaccuracies in Cinema 

Dude same 🤣🤣

SPACE DINOS!!!!!

So it wasn't just me then? LOL I did the exact same thing.

@@russellharrell2747 E.E.Smith's Lensmen cycle has it! As far as I recall one dinosaur like with lens and telepathic powers (facilitated thru the LENS) was heading through space to meet his fellow lensman. Without space suit.

Title " 4 Most Annoying Scientific Inaccuracies in Cinema", not in space specifically. And as it says "4" the dinos are a bonus (and Sci Fi in a way).

It depends on how far away the lighting is. If you're in a house that is struck by lightening, you'll experience both light and sound at the same time.

That one drives me bananas every time. I recently saw a film that gave a bit of a delay, can't remember the film, but I was thankful. The delay wasn't accurately long enough for real life, but I think they made the right choice by going halfway between what people are used to in real life vs used to in movies.

Halcyon Outlander do you poop too?

One time we were in a thunderstorm right at our house and we were getting in the car as lightning struck our neighbors’ tree. Monsoon season is pretty insane.

@@aaronexists4308 everytime i see lightning, i always do a countdown

Science be damned

Huh?

@@captainjackpugh6050 my point is, if the person receiving what is presumably a non-explosive projectile does a backflip through a block wall, then the gun that fired that projectile should send the person pulling the trigger flying backwards 4 feet (1 meter) at least, even figuring in the weight of a very dense gun (and most modern firearms are not dense), and well muscled and heavily laden individual behind it. Even if we consider an anti-recoil system in the gun it should nearly knock the firing individual over, and most of these guns don't have room inside them for any of that, especially considering that I'm primarily talking about modern firearms here. Even laser and other sci-fi weapons should push back on the individual firing the weapon; light is a popular rocket propellant in hard sci-fi, after all. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, and that law does apply to firearms, whatever movies would have you believe.

My eye-roll for guns in movies is that no one ever seems to be affected by the sound of gunshots. Gunshots are very loud and in the movies no one is wearing ear protection. I remember watching Sicario and they all go into this cave and they're all firing their guns in an enclosed space and I am thinking to myself, "Well, they're all deaf now." (Also, no one in that scene is wearing helmets? They brought helmets but took them off for some reason? Excuse me? What?)

Only time I’m ever truly in agreement with a movie on recoil like that is if it’s a shotgun at point blank

Lasers in general are just entirely wrong in SCI-FI, stories like Star Wars and Star Trek just great lasers as glowing bullets.

They are seeing someone draw and point a gun, so they start dodging. The person with the laser gun is usually aiming at where the target was, and not where the are after they dodge. They aren’t dodging lightspeed laser blasts, they are dodging the shooter, reaction tile vs reaction time. It’s the same as ‘dodging’ bullets in the real world, there’s no way to effectively dodge anything moving at supersonic speeds, but jumping out of the way as a gunslinger takes aim is doable.

@@russellharrell2747 By that logic, people should be able to dodge bullets, since they are far 'slower' than lasers....In a world of fully automatic, or even semi automatic weapons in the hands of 'pray and spray' shooters, your point is moot.

futurepeople can create handheld laser guns, but they can't put a camera and an auto-targeting computer in it??

@@obidamnkenobi not the same thing. 'Laser guns is a weapon that still needs to be manually aimed. cameras, no matter how technically advanced, still will need to be manually aimed. are you taking a picture of Darth Vader? or the guy he just threw across the room? or the reaction of the crew? Do you see my point?

I have to wonder about that algorithm. This was recommended to me after an evening bingeing woodworking videos. I mean, I'm still here, but I'll never get how it made that leap.

Hello from the future! It's 2021 for me!

Try 2021. 🤣 I've stopped questioning RU-vid's wild and wacky algorithm

2021

+Adrian Mantsch What's so hard about saying Dinochus? ,Deinobus?..Beinonydhus?,Deinotnihus? Velociraptor?

+Adrian Mantsch And they do have a scene in Jurassic world where the scientist says that they didn't make historically accurate dinosaurs (subtext, with feathers) because they wouldn't be as cool and get as many people to come to the parks.

+Adrian Mantsch The ships ins Star Wars also fly around like air planes in an atmosphere. Many sci-fi programs show this incorrectly. Usually ones that don't care because they're just trying to be fun... Like Star Wars. If we want to get into pointing out fake things in Sci-Fi movies there's much more than the low hanging fruit +coldcrashpictures grabbed but that's why it's called Science -FICTION. Although I totally agree with him on all counts when Sci-Fi shows try to be realistic and fail.

+Dustin B Agein that would be ridiculous as hell for the audiance. Starfighter battles would be like they used to emulate in the game "star citizen" feeling like turrets in space, and they are changing that in the game for a more fun aproach.

+Marcel Brh Snipers on ice skates on a 3d lake

That's what we do. When someone is wrong on the internet, one gotta speak up. And it's clearly wrong to complain about inaccurate science in science-FICTION movies. So it's not the science facts that is annoying. It's the fact that some actually complain about inaccurate science in science fiction movies. That's the annoying thing.

@@LifeOnHoth It can be argued--and I say this as a life-long sci-fi fan--that certain stereotypes being perpetuated over and over can result in people believing said inaccuracies over scientific truth, often to their detriment. For example, the constant Hollywood explosions of cars makes people believe that cars that have crashed (especially ones one fire) will always explode, and frequently results in injured people dragged from vehicles and their injuries worsened for no good reason. There are many stories of people who became paralyzed or worse because of injuries that would not have done that to them if they hadn't been dragged out by well-meaning misinformed folk. Now the counter to what I just said is that it can be--justifiably--argued that this merely calls for better education. And that's exactly the point of the video.

i actually didnt click it just came up automatically after watching a scene from a bill and ted movie, and thus i feel totally justified in mocking this guy for complaining about science fictions in movies all from a genre called science fiction, its pretty funny.

Its called science fiction because it's based on science. That doesn't mean its actual science. If it were then alot of scifi movies would be boring. Being that its fiction it literally means fantasy science if that helps. Honestly insulting people really dosent help anyone. Im a huge scifi fan myself and yet i never insult someone because of a strange comment.

To be fair though, Jurassic World gave an in-movie explanation of why their dinosaurs look the way they are.

You really can't. The bloke's name wasn't philosophical.

You facking kant!

@@greenaum Close enough. It really is a fairly good pun though.

He went to the shopping mall to buy some jokes, but he forgot to put them in Descartes.

ow.

I take you point, but for me, knowing these scientific facts, it would actually add to it's appeal. Granted, I know you'll say but most viewers aren't scientifically educated so for them it plays better, and you'd be right. But for those like me, no sound (ala 2001ASO), it just adds some realism.

Artistic license.

I don't even consider Star Wars a science fiction movie. Leia's blown-out-into-space scene actually annoyed me, not for any of the reasons it annoyed everyone else, but because I thought it was way too late in the game to bring actual space physics into the movies.

@@Stuurminator Star Wars in space opera, not based on science so there is room for license. Star Trek was science fiction.

@@howie9751 Maybe the rebel pilots have tech in their headsets that simulates the sound imperial fighters or blasts would make if there were a medium to convey the soundwave

+matthewakian2 Indeed. I wonder how many would like to see Star Wars, Star Trek or any other space opera/sci-fi movie where the most epic sequences were basically mute. Comparing a movie like 2001: Space Odyssey to Star Wars doesn't make much sense either.

And all those beautiful sounds, like the Tie-fighter engine.

One of the only instances where I'd like to have the sounds muted while in space in movies like Star Wars is if a person was floating in a spacesuit in space, alone. But even then it would be to create the atmosphere of isolation, not so much for scientific accuracy.

+matthewakian2 Thumbs up for you. There's a lot in cinema that's poetic license that would ruin film if it were accurate. Case in point: In radio they introduced that "shring" sound you get when someone pulls a dagger or sword out because in reality they don't make much of a sound if at all when drawn (which is obviously bad for radio). This got carried over to cinema foley artists and is so recognized that when Peter Jackson made Lord of the Rings he tried to have the swords being drawn without that sound. They had to put the "shring" sound back in when it tested negatively with audiences as the expected that noise when a sword is drawn.

No sound in space you say? In that case, the Star Wars prequels might have worked if Anakin and Jar Jar were jettisoned into the vacuum of space.

+Omagari Toshi You're might be on to something here...

+Omagari Toshi I love it when some movies get that right. Some do. Huge explosion, far away, but no sound, and that is far more scary than if you heard the sound of the explosion. You know it's coming... any second.

+Omagari Toshi "sound effect never gets delayed no matter how far the sound source is depicted on screen." I wouldn't call it a huge pet peeve of mine per se, but I've seen a few movies that did this accurately -- and moreover made it a dramatic tension point.

That's cool. Can you name some?

"Can you name some?" Not offhand, sorry, though I know I've seen it a few times and each time I do, my inner Physics student jumps up and down and giggles.

You're right. The book did well to give the stegosaurus respiratory problems.

Unless they genetically engineered them to function on the lower oxygen.

felt like pointing this out since i learnt it a week ago (my life is a lie) the more oxygen thing is a myth, earlier in the carboniferous there was more oxygen, but after that it went back down to normal levels. some studies show oxygen might've been LOWER at times in the mesozoic.

@@AltairBlue Thanks for pointing this out LOL. I too learned about the actual mesozoic oxygen levels some time after leaving the original comment. Funny to look back at the misconceptions I held 7 years ago.

@@redmohawkguy1 same lmao

Falsehood or fiction, not myth. Myths can be true, or at least partially so.

Yes, that was one of the few mistakes in 2001. But maybe he exhaled before he held his breath.

Yep, sound is action and is best used in action movies. Quiet id suspense, no sound holds your attention.

Star Wars was not going after that affect though. It was going after full action which if it had no noise in it, would not had worked as a film!

Who is to say that advanced space faring civilizations won't realize that sound is an important sense that helps a person focus on what is transpiring around them. As a result why not simply extrapolate what an event would sound like in atmosphere and play that sound for the pilot inside his ship. It would be immensely helpful for a number of reasons both practical and psychological.

its

But it had music in space.

+adpina11 Its true for people who believe it. So maybe that makes it true

adpina11 oh thank god there's someone else out there who gets annoyed by this.

Indeed, the first film I know of to refute that was The Lazarus Effect

If you ever hear someone say "10% of brain" irl, ask them if they heard about the guy who was shot in the head, but was fine, because it only hit the 90% of his brain that he doesn't use.

Perhaps its correct in the sense that we can't access 100% of the information in our brains at any given time. Which I can buy given the amount of times I've had difficulty recalling simple information only to remember it hours later. That side of it seems reasonable to me.

Guess the nearly unseeable masses of micrometeorites and other small debris isn't exciting enough, so they make everything big

nice ringtone!

Exactly like it's not even annoying

+DjZenitSwe Films have done it right before, and were still masterpieces

he isn't saying it would be he is just pointing out that it's wrong

Given the dialogue in the prequels, I would be very thankful for 80% more silence... Seriously!! It's like George Lucas doesn't have a clue about how people actually talk and interact with each other.

dspsblyuth i am disgusted Jesus i mean i did not need to see that

Jimmy Cricket no, that's explosive cleansing of the colon.

Imagine eating Taco Bell in space.

I would say "No shit" but that would be entirely inaccurate.

Then stop eating at Taco Bell, for Christ's sake...and your underwear's.

Yes ty! I hated that sooo much, and I swear I've seen the same thing in some other sci-fi. It makes zero sense...

But still, their sense of gravity was still pretty realistic, using spinning objects to obtain centrifugal force. But not every movie is perfect, stuff like what you described happens

It's called self abuse.

You're gonna make me do a special "Schlock & Awe" episode about this....

Its the the only robotussin trip film that i know of. Its lit

Its a pretty entertaining flick

AlistairAI It’s one of Sandler’s better films

You can still get aircraft like maneuvers via thrusters but it wouldn't serve a purpose. Its no different than how our shuttle can flip and do spins.

and lasers should sound more like fart. Unless they are plasma bullets? They called "laser sword" light saber and that can mean something else than laser. So maybe these laser bullets were plasma bullets. Just thinking different possibilities. But i will take all fictional and star wars is more fantasy / space opera to me than science fiction. pew pew pew: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BwNfiCAuXDo.html

They should also be invisible unless they're shooting directly at you. The beam of a laser isn't even really visible in atmosphere, it'll be even less visible in vacuum.

amen to that!

+Gaming With ViperZeroOne there are some ways for sound for example if you are close enough to a explosion and the gas from the explosion is hitting your ship our for example if youwere flying behinde an Ionengine ship the Ions that it shoots out could create a sound when the hit your shild same thing would go for blasters etc. assuming that with every shoot a littel bit of highly scattert whatever they are fiering with comes out (still would only work if you were somewhat in front of the gun) #when I was 12 I was done finding all the fails in movies so I started to think of explenations for them.

Victor Selve ... Most of your examples wouldn't actually work in the reality of Space. As was said, sound needs a medium to pass the vibrations through. Thus if there is ANY "space" between your ear and the source of the sound it's quite literally IMPOSSIBLE for you to hear it.

***** ... Sci-Fi = Science Fiction Science Fiction, by it's very nature, is fantasy. That's why they added the fiction. A work of fiction is a fantasy of the writer. Thus every story not about true events is considered both a work of fantasy and a work of fiction. Now, some people like to break down the word "Fantasy" to mean that some kind of magic has to be used. That might be the "Library" definition, but it's not very realistic. A fantasy is a fantasy, magic or not. That said, if you wish to use the library definition, since you've brought it up, then Star Trek would also clearly be a Sci-Fi Fantasy experience. You see several races with "magical" abilities. Look at the Q, for example, who have far more "magic" than any Jedi/Sith. How about the Vorta, who can manifest energy pulses? You've got beings who've evolved into pure energy. If that's not fantasy than I don't know what is.

Actually in terms of Technology a lot of has came to pass in Star Trek communicators, Tablets, Tricorders, hypo sprays, Probes, Lasers, Cloaking Technology shields, Shield technology actually exists too 50 years ago you would have laughed at me, had I said in the future we will have these devices/technology.. and Scientists have developed teleportation at a microscopic level and NASA believe warp technology is possible, I`ve;ve seen their warp drive (which is under going trials - obviously the engine not a Star Ship) forgetting the Aliens races everything in Star Trek has come to pass or is under development. In regards the Alien races Scientists believe the next evolutionary step would be pure energy, I was trying to locate the article I read recently regarding dark matter and Alien life theory. I was going to say Star Wars is an absolute fantasy but unfortunately (or fortunately) alot of the technology has passed or scientists believe is possible robots, drones, battle droids, head up displays and even lightsabres are believed to be possible (I thought that wasn't true) But in terms of the force that is a fantasy no man or alien will be able to will things to his need or force choke or throw lightening at people, however in terms of Star Trek - Q is a life form that I doubt could exist in both our relm and his relm. Also tossing Star Ships across the universe like toys across a bed room is pure Science Fantasy too in my opinion. So elements from both shows exist, but elements are also pure fantasy. So Sci-Fi (Science Fiction) generally becomes a reality or will become true. I think there is no real limit in term of technology, even Planet Killers like the Death Star or Star Killer have the potential to exist in the real world (universe)

I personally don't mind sound in space because a lot of space shots in Star Wars are from inside a ship where it makes sense to hear sound, I also like how Mass Effect explained sound in space too. But for me, the most annoying thing in Star Wars is how ships in space have gravity and drag.

Van Anderson true i would hate watching a tie blow up and only see it what if i’m deaf? half a movie that’s wha

You nailed it. Sound is very important to the action.

Nah, can you imagine planets being destroyed, the pov from space and no single sound heard? Wouldn't it be most weird yet fascinating experience ?

I would like to put in that, even without sound effects in space shots, you can still have musical score. As in, you can have the music fill in for the missing sounds. In fact, imagine the Asteroid Field scene from Empire Strikes Back, or the TIE attack from A New Hope, where the space shots have no sound effects, but still have the music play. You're welcome.

Wouldn't you rather have someone who views everything so that you don't have to? Maybe they try to find the highest quality format available regardless of the movie.

Click made me cry I'm not even ashamed to say that. 10/10 would watch again

But....He also owns "The Deer Hunter"......

And keeps "Dune" on the same shelf.

Dr. Horrible is there which is all l need to know :~))

Those poor people

same i liked it but then again this is youtube so we must be wrong

I'll never watch it again cos of what this expert thinks ;P

+Marv3Lthe1 I thought that was a pretty clever way to explain the things we worked out since the original was made.

+Marv3Lthe1 The Velociraptors in Jurassic Park were not actually Velociraptors. They were Deinonychus, but Spielberg and Crichton changed them to Velociraptor.

+Marv3Lthe1 served!

+Marv3Lthe1 The animals you see in Jurassic Park are not real dinosaurs, they are genetically modified themepark monsters. Having no feathers is not a plothole in anyway.

+BoxxyFan so... you just repeated what he was already wrote. 😐

gills :D

Myerr ... the camera is always attached to a Phantom 4 Pro drone...

Wait a minute! If this is the crew who were filming us . .. who's filming us now?

Well, of course he and the rest of the film crew are wearing space suits. Like in 2001: A Space Odyssey, where you hear their breathing in the suits whenever they filmed Poole or Bowman in EVA.

+MP197742 That particular galaxy, far, far away, is really crowded. Magrathea way oversold in the area. Low interest loans to the Empire and such. That's why the planets were so easy to blow up. Not up to code.

+MP197742 I thought the normal impulse power(somehow) was the one that was 1.5 times the speed of light. Hyperdrive is something else entirely. But Star Wars physics is always silly.Ships have a top speed and fake gravity. Fighters bank and maneuver like jets in atmosphere. Lightsabers exist.

+MP197742 I'd have to watch the film again, but I think most of the time when the ships and weapons made sounds in _Serenity_, they were actually in the upper atmosphere of a planet. I don't know at what altitude that big battle at the end took place, or what kind of sound you'd get up there, but it's probably debatable whether they were "in space". The one example I can remember of that film depicting "sound" in space was when Mal fired the anti-aircraft gun at the Reaver ship that was following them, but even then it was a dull, muted thump that was probably intended to represent the vibration of the cannon firing, rather than an actual sound. Though with regards to the speed of the Millennium Falcon: Whedon once said that spaceships in the _Firefly_ universe travel at the "speed of drama", and arrive at their destination whenever the plot requires them to do so. Presumably the same logic applies in most "soft" sci-fi settings.

+MP197742 _"But if you want to get on Lucas, the Millenium Falcon can go 1.5 times the speed of light, which means it would take YEARS to go from one star system to another"_ It's far worse than that. Keep in mind that the speed of light in the Star Wars universe is so slow that you can literally follow laser beams with your eyes. ;)

Gnomefro Those are "blasters," not lasers, so that's why you can see them. Both blasters and the Star Trek phasers are slower than modern bullet-based guns.

I mean, did he look past the fact that they have damn lightsabers? Haha its like the glaring evidence that star wars is not based in reality or to be scientifically accurate haha

Personally, I think Star Wars shouldn't really be on these sorts of lists. It's not really Science Fiction, or Space Opera or anything of the sort. It's a fantasy that just so happens to take place in space. There's wizards, knights and rogues, and they even have a princess, and there's all manner of fantastical creatures and exotic locales on the hero's journey. Sure the evil overlord burned down a planet instead of a village, but the DNA isn't THAT much different from the other fantasy works we're all familiar with that tend to take place in a medieval setting. It's similar to how Alien is just another (great) horror monster movie. Space is just the set dressing.

Don't forget the Force.

Star wars isnt even scifi, it is fantasy.

Mickey -- STAR WARS is not a documentary? Now what do I do with that x-wing I built in my backyard to rendezvous with the Resistance on Crait?

They dabbled a bit with that in Kevin Bacon's Hollow Man. He could see, but not normally. The darker his surroundings the better he could see. Normal room lights and bright hospital lights were unbearable for him. That is also why his character did most of his moving around at night. Kind of like Vin Diesel's Riddick. That is supposedly the reason why many invisible man characters always wear dark glasses, to allow them to at least see well enough to prevent going totally blind.

The artificial gravity on the Enterprise is generated per deck, so it makes sense that whatever gravity had been affecting them was limited to the floor they were on. But yeah, not falling through floors always bothered me in similar films.

@The Fandom Menace gravity plating in the floor might prevent them from going through the floors

You get the same thing with ghosts in most stories. Jim Butcher addressed it well in Ghost Story. A Character who was a new ghost asked another how come he could walk through walls & get into a car, but was sitting on the seat & walking on the ground? It was explained that it worked like that, because he *expected* it to work like that, as he began sinking through the seat...

Just because the eyes are transparent doesn’t mean they’re not there.So technically they might be able to see, not sure about it though.

get out

PANZER - come on dude..

Evol Bob what

Yeah, 1) because if you want to hear a t rex roar you just need to go to your nearest park and find one.

@@munstermutch After much study of the vocal cavity of tyrannosauridae, it is my conclusion that the sound made by these beasts would resemble a very deep, bellowing version of that made by the Common Wood Pigeon (Columba palumbus), and that the sound commonly ascribed to them is a product of the 'talkies'. I await the first correct representation on the cinema screen with anticipation.

Lost World: Jurassic Park does feature a scene showing the T-Rex family coexisting alongside other dinosaurs without trying to kill them.

@@RemyJackson I remember that scene!

RedOctober2011 Jurassic Park avoided those cliches (speaking of roaring), and, also, the real reason why the dinosaurs in the Franchise were inaccurate is because all of them aren’t natural animals with the DNA gaps of other modern day species, as depicted in Jurassic World.

+Nathanael Ries my thoughts exactly. That would be a retroactive explanation for all Jurassic park franchise, well except in JP III where raptors get some feathers.. anyway seem a good solution to me to explain this inaccuracy.

+Nathanael Ries my thoughts exactly. That would be a retroactive explanation for all Jurassic park franchise, well except in JP III where raptors get some feathers.. anyway seem a good solution to me to explain this inaccuracy.

Brambilla Fumagalli It even makes sense for JP III since site B could have done different modifications than site A as a test bed of sorts.

Nathanael Ries What was they word they used?? Oh right scarier...

and with the added frog DNA

+mi lu "Artificial gravity" is a techno-mumbo-jumbo, but it is an "explanation". Plus, it would be extremely expensive to film a whole movie like that :-)

+Marek Bartoš Apollo 13. most if not all the weightless scenes were filmed on Nasa's Zero gravity plane. An airplane that would go to cruising altitude and steeply drop, causing free fall and apparent weightlessness 25 seconds at a time. They went through 612 parabolas, equaling about 4 hours of weightlessness.

+mi lu If a spaceship is rotating, it can simulate 1g

+Marcus Colwell While I love that movie to death, and I love the fact that they shot a whole bunch in the vomit comet, most of the weightless scenes were not shot in microgravity. They faked the easy stuff, and used the aircraft for what would have been difficult or time consuming to fake.. The actors got quite good at pretending to be weightless (floating your limbs just right, for example). For example, if you could lie on your belly on a dolly on a pole, then they did that instead. There were also restrictions about how much of the set could fit on the KC-135, which was probably a factor.

+Lord Geezmo not at simple as just rotation.... the craft has to be revolving around a central point, so it would need to be tethered to something

Joshua Walker wow I was born 4 years after JP3!

Genji Shimada So, what, you're like 12 or 13? Are you even old enough to have a RU-vid account?

Joshua Walker yeah I'm old enough but some videos are age restricted

Joshua Walker oh and I meant to say 3 years

Genji Shimada Yeah, it's crazy. I was 10 when the original Jurassic Park came out. It was PG-13 and my parents took me to see it probably because I begged non-stop to go see the dinosaur movie. I had nightmares about velociraptors for months after that.

B Mouch1018 There is this phenomenon called "Space Madness" and it is a bit identical to what happens to the people in Event Horizon

Yep, still a good movie

Probably the closest we will ever get to a Warhammer 40k movie.

B Mouch1018 The only movie to legitimately make me feel like shit weeks after i saw it.

idk, I thought it was mostly unintentionally hilarious.

You must throw out logic for a story to work. Said any writer ever.

+Solitude Dr Wu actually pretty much states this in Jurassic World in his "Nothing is Jurassic World is natural" speech.

Sean M Ah, must have missed it, thanks!

+Solitude Also In Jurassic Park 1, Mr DNA says that the DNA extracted from the mosquito blood wasn't sufficient to engineer a dinosaur and they had to "fill in the blanks" with available DNA from non extinct creatures.

+Guy Fawkes unfortunately in the film, they specifically say they use frogs, so the scales still come from nowhere.

Ah, I couldn't remember if they said that or if that was something Jeff Goldblum said, since I remember him going on about frogs that could change their gender at will or something as an example of how chaos theory will fuck up the park.

+Flush Nutch totally, tits can easily dodge bullets in real life

Exactly, contrary to popular belief boobies have more speed capabilities than any bullet.

+Anders Jensen Thank you!

+Anders Jensen maybe people are mad that he's saying that their favorite movies are inaccurate. Or maybe its just cause RU-vid

Roman Kobets Good point :)

probably because he's a pretentious twat

Spreading knowledge... is that pretentious now?

Plus the great line in response to "What should we do with the money?" (which now had his blood and guts all over it) ... "Launder it."

great scene.

He would have been sucked through the opening cut through the pipe. Still pretty gross.

Like cavewomen wearing false eyelashes in ONE MILLION YEARS BC!

star wars makes up for the unrealism with amazing plot.

I enjoy watching both sci-fi and science documentaries.

@@randystegemann9990 I think this might be near heart of the issue. Both are valid as long as you know what you are watching. Which means you need to have some type of hold on reality first.

Plus an issue that a lot of people over look is that those Dinosaurs have their missing DNA filled from frogs and because of that, if one were to do it and lets assume it worked, those Dinosaurs would then produce features that frogs have.

And here I just posted the same thing, not having read the comments, lol. At least I know I remembered the book correctly. Considering I read it 7 times in 5 years I would hope so...

Also, plot twist: maybe that was a Utahraptor and they were just discovering it for the first time (within the JP universe.)

He also talked about the trex's vision being like a frog long before going to Jurassic park - which is false. Natural trex had ideal vision in every aspect.

That is incorrect. Henry Wu specified in the book that they were modified velociraptors made to be larger. They were not deinonycus or utahraptor (which some have said - I believe utaraptor was discovered after the book was written.)

+TheRealGunfish .. but at least the psychic powers and whirring laser noises were accurately portrayed. 2/3, try harder with the next movie.

With earthlike gravity.

Magnus Linder it's because of all the frog DNA to fill the gaps :D

+Cruser Power 2001 Space Odyssey silent scenes in space to me seemed very dramatic. The absolute absence of sound gave me an eerie feeling.

Yeah. I see your point but, star wars is an action movie. It would be a bit weird to see all that action and no sound

Cruser Power true

Yo bro we need you back

You're special. When you grow up you want to be a principal or a caterpillar.

Personally it's never bothered me. It's like how almost every movie ever made has music playing in key scenes, for example the "Duel of the Fates" music that plays during the climactic duel in Star Wars Episode 1.Nobody ever complains about that. If we as an audience can happily accept music without issue then why should "sound in space" be a complaint?

In space you also wouldn't hear popcorn crunching, drink slurping, ice crunching, coughing, rude whispering, etc.

Just wait until scientists reconstitute the DNA of Nimrod from before the flood and he rules the entire world government. They found his body in a cave just after the invasion of Iraq in 2003 and looted the antiquities museum to get the ancient writings on body resurrection and genetic giant hybridization. Yep the Nephilim are coming back.

Exactly. Which is why this person is a moron.

They're doing something similar IRL, but with Chicken DNA. On a related note, we are close to bringing back Aurochs as a means of breedable Cattle. If you didn't already know, Aurochs were giant 7 foot tall cows that went extinct over 400 years ago.

Yes, they point that out in the movies and books. The CEO's "Wanted Dinosaurs" The scientists who said "They really aren't" got fired or threatened. The "dinosaurs" are literally Frankenstein monsters of genetic manipulation and the unforeseen consequences of it.

You're right, but the movie fucks that up by having grant talking about Trex's vision at the start of the movie when he's clearly referring to the trex hybrid with frog-vision. Real tyrannosaurs had perfect binocular vision - some of the best. Moreover, they were mostly dinosaur with frog gene sequences to fill gaps missing from time in the amber. It's not really a hybrid as much as they all have slightly altered biology that actually caused them to start reproducing in the movie against nature (frog DNA fucked them up - frogs can change sex in extreme single sex environments.)

ikr

But the topic of this video is specifically about inaccuracies in cinema, not books.

Michael Chrichton didn't create/design the life like props, animatronics, or digitally generated visuals of what was believed to be the most scientifically accurate depictions of dinosaurs both on film and in general.

As well as that scene in the book didnt make physical sense with the T rex picking up and shaking the jeep in its jaws. The jeep is too damn big.

With all respect to mr. Chrichton his depiction of dinosaurs in novel cause me a little trauma. Luckyly there is Raptor Red by Robert T. Bakker.

Favorite movie
