Physics in movies?

[docster]

I also notice violations of the laws of physics in movies. One of my favorites is "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" with them running up walls and flying from housetop to housetop. Honorable mentions goes to just about any space movie where they fly around like airplanes in a dogfight.

Well I'm watching Ash versus Evil dead season three, I just saw a demonic toddler crawl up a headless woman's dress, into her vagina and reanimate her lifeless body, there was several scenes where the child pocked his head out of both her neck socket and her vagina.

Every single movie set in space gets the basic physics wrong, with the most obvious mistake being that when a ship explodes in space, not only do you hear the explosion (which is, of course, an impossibility because sound waves require a medium to traverse, and space is a vacuum), but you hear the explosion at the very same instant you see it, as though sound waves were capable of travelling at the speed of light, which they obviously cannot.
'Armageddon' was one of the worst films I have ever seen, and what isn't mentioned in this clip is the fact that using a "nuke" to blow up an asteroid (even a small one, never mind one as "big as Texas") would be a stupid idea, because it simply wouldn't work. What would happen is that you would heat up the interior, you would liquefy it, and you would not alter its course in the slightest. Pieces of the rock would only break away if the nuclear device were placed close to its surface, but again it's path would not be altered, for in order to achieve such a result requires the application of an external force to do so (Newton's First Law of Motion - i. e. an object at rest or moving in a straight line at a constant speed will only have its current condition altered if and when an external force is applied). It would be easier, cheaper and safer to just give the asteroid a tiny nudge, rather than trying to blow the thing up.
