Anyone else seen 'Sandra Bullock Makes Physics Cry While Wearing Skimpies'? I thought it was most entertaining, and very pretty. |

By which I mean the film thread you hate, not a thread about hated films. It's very entertaining. Amazing visuals, and I don't just mean Ms Bullock in her underwear. Some moments that mildly irked me, and some admittedly incorrect physics, but I wasn't there to watch a documentary. |

Doc has nothing but praise for it mind, which I suspect is reason to revoke his PhD. |

Which physicsy bits were wrong? There's been lots of talk about that on the SA forums, but Neil deGrasse Tyson (noted astrophysicist) has more or less tweeted various tweets recently that says they stack up, from what I gather? |

Bits that got me: ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view! In fairness, the director has publicly said they had NASA or similar involved, and decided that to do the film how they wanted they had to take certain liberties. Which I'm absolutely fine with. |

I'm in an airport on a phone, I'll write something here later. Physics wasn't perfect but was easily one of the better space films because films get so much wrong. No-one's mentioned ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view! |

Is it recommended seeing this in 3D? I hate 3D films as a general rule. |

Yes. 3d. |

I saw this on Tuesday and loved it. The effects are incredible, it's hard to convince your brain you're not watching a documentary filmed in space. Oscar nominations would be deserved. ZOMG Spoiler! Click here to view! |

Although Cloony did a superb job, apparently first in for the role was Robert Downey Jr, and now I'm sad that it wasn't him. |

Scientists banned from watching Gravity Quote: SCIENTISTS have been banned from watching the film Gravity because they kept ruining it for normal people.
Screenings of the thrilling space adventure had been marred by socially-inept scientists exclaiming loudly about minor inaccuracies of no interest to sane humans. All UK cinemas have now forbidden anyone with grade B or above for GCSE Science from watching the film. Cinema manager Tom Logan said: "We had large scientist groups with bad jumpers and weird hair coming in just to pick holes in Gravity. "Every time there was some obscure physics-related quibble they'd put their hands over their eyes and say things like 'the Philistines have won' or 'in the name of Einstein!' in exaggerated Tom Baker-esque voices." 24-year-old Emma Bradford took a scientist on a date to see Gravity: "Instead of putting his hand up my jumper he said things like 'I'd like to know how Sandra's decidedly terrestrial underwear is going to process her bodily waste.' "We went to Pizza Express after and he made explanatory diagrams with olives for satellites and strips of pepper indicating gravitational forces." Bradford's scientist date Julian Cook said: "Hollywood is making a mockery of the fundamental laws of the universe. "I must highlight that even if it means going home alone, to a milky drink and ten minutes of Babestation, every night until I die." |

Well, when i went to watch it, there was some girl in front of me saying to her boyfriend "I can't believe how they shot this is space!". But i rather have that than those annoying scientists. |

Occam's Razor tells us that the simplest explanation is usually correct. I find it far more credible that Clooney and Bullock were in space than the the so-called "truth" that most of the movie is computer generated.
