Not science fiction

Sometimes, while watching science fiction, I catch myself thinking that the events described in a particular work are not just unlikely, but even purely theoretically impossible. Often the authors either deliberately insert them into their work for the sake of entertainment or simply do not have the slightest idea of ​​a scientific point of view on the question. In this video, I have collected for you several examples of such cases.

Mass Effect

Life is Strange

The best comments

Metal huge- as composite materials? Why is it not possible? The question lies in practice materials science and we are capable of creating material in the future, strong enough and strong for a giant combat robot?
Regarding animals, yes, but there is one interesting fact -the size of insects is adjusted with the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere -that is, if the concentration of oxygen increases, then the insects will begin to increase -of course, it will not be Godzili, but still.
The effect of the butterfly easily correlates a multi -world interpretation and in general quantum mechanics. There you need to climb into the jungle, in general form – you just change the universe, it is divided into two different systems, and and both exist at the same time – you just fix it on one.
About the fact that you will go into the past and will not let yourself give birth, and therefore you will not exist, and there was no fact of traveling into the past – therefore, a paradox is not correct – there is such a thing as the laws of thermodynamics – The energy of an isolated system retains a constant value for all the changes taking place in this system, or, what is the same, energy does not arise from nothing and cannot turn into nothing. You are energy consisting of atoms and molecules that are millions of years – you cannot just take and disappear – this contradicts physics. There is again a multi -year interpretation. But in fact, physics allows you to perform more crazy things in terms of travel travel:
In general, you have a time machine. You are male – you do your operation, become a woman who can give birth, fly into the past, seduce yourself in the past, you have sex yourself, fly away from yourself, give birth to a child and go into the past, and throw yourself in a shelter. That is, you are for yourself – mother, father, son at the same time. And this is normal and it is quite scientific. And you are talking about the grandfather’s paradox))
And in the end, a little about anthropocentrism is, in principle, vidos of norms, but you need to read more.

And the first points in the video are the Pacific Rubezh and Godzilla. As for me, Kaju and Furs have somewhere in science fiction as the same relationship as comics.

Here is the total +1. I wanted to roll the sheet for the post on the topic that the author wanted to disassemble the NF, but in the end he digs and dug in everything and strangely, as the “Fast and the Furious” or something of the movie comics did not get into the video.

I advise you to read the article by Yatsek Duka, “Mezhiz -Middle Journey, or from the Library to Cinema and Back” on the topic of film fiction.

“However, one thing is a“ fantastic film ”, and a completely different thing is“ Scientific and Fantastic Film ”. As for the definitions of the NF in the literature, there are already hot disputes, often resembling the debates of medieval scholastic. For the needs of the conversation about the cinema, simple definition is enough: the NF in the created world, which is spreading from the realities of modern or historical worlds, should at least try to maintain a logical sequence and coupling with the current state of science. She can easily suffer a defeat in these efforts – then this is a bad NF, but still – still NF.
Having accepted such a perspective, we will understand the installation of the Purists of the genre, insisting that NF films appear so rarely that it is difficult to talk about “nf-kino” today today. The adventure novels of Young Adult nor fantastic plots (and the Yoon ADULT convention has already broken off from the demographic target audience, since most of the teenagers are reading and watching products on the label of which stands “ya”), nor epic fantasy of the spray, nor fairy tale Disney or Piexar, neitherCompletely adaptations of comics, nor vampires, transformers, waders, readdiks, werewolves and zombies have the right to be called “science fiction”.
It is not clear how to interpret films like “Lucy” (“Lucy”) or “Field of Darkness” (“Limitless”), where the only hypothesis claiming the scientificity is drowned in the sea of ​​comic bookmates. In the case of a book, the situation would be easier: on paper, such a narrative would give archaism and simplence – as the facial -mild cinema actors give them on the screen today on the screen.
But cinema has long woven behind the NF literature-in 30–40 years behind, and more and more lags behind. The distance is growing, the points are removed from each other, the “wormhole” meetings happen less and less.»

You need to climb into the jungle, in general form nonukcasinosites.co.uk/review/aztec-paradise-casino/ – you just change the universe, it is divided into two different systems, and and both exist simultaneously

If we consider the issue of multi-senior, then creating something out of nothing is impossible, just like creating a universe from nothing. It follows from this that this universe already exists (as an infinite number of probabilities), respectively, it is not so much about moving in time, but about a simple change of universe, and everything that happens is already happening, just in another universe and “changing the past” is simply pointless, t.To. Only the traveler will notice the difference simply because he has already seen another scenario. Although if you dig deeper, then we are talking about specific actions specific people, and about the distribution of energy in space. You can also throw a coordinate system in the same box that people use. T.To. We can only move in 3 planes, then it is customary to use a three -dimensional system, but for a complete description of the coordinates of a particular point this is not enough. Two points can be in the same coordinate in three -dimensional space, but if you add time and “the option of the universe” here (unfortunately it does not know how to formulate it by scientific). And this is not the end. Well, in general, yes, I agree with you to the expense of everything except

uuuuuuuh, well, it’s very dirty, I will realize the “artistic simplification”. In general, I’m ready to discuss this topic.

That’s exactly what is not about the team of professional scientists, namely about them and should be. According to your logic, in the film about Afghan, for example, they show some special assault battalion of the GRU. And this very battalion is equipped with armless cripples interspersed with 15-year-old children, even a wheelchair user was closed. And someone will say: “Bl, what kind of nonsense, but they won’t even take them to the furvods, not like in an elite combat group. After all, those who plan a combat operation want to succeed;organize secretive delivery of the group, the delivery of ammunition, equipment, the evacuation of the group. This is all money, time, human resources;who will waste them?»
And in response: “Yes, they are cripples and children, and they do not know how to fight. Yes, they all died at a combat exit and could not achieve the goal. But, this is about the war of cinema, and not about special units, and in war people die. Here they all died «.
According to my academic, in the world of Prometheus such expeditions are very expensive and time -free. I wouldn’t send scientists for beer that I would talk about the colonization of other planets.

In the introduction, it would not hurt to mention that there are two kinds of science fiction: Soft Si-Fi (which is also divided into a lot) and Hard Si-Fi. And what is described in the video is just the same Soft, making many assumptions for the sake of artistry and “what if if if?»(As well as towards a larger audience and, accordingly, less risks for investors).
About the «butterfly effect». As already said above, they will return to the past and kill themselves quite possible. It’s just that at the same time you will create another reality in which you were killed by some incomprehensible horseradish from another universe.
And about AI, here, it seems to me, overkill. To teach a robot to be afraid for his existence (it doesn’t matter why), or to fight for sources of resources to maintain it, is not so difficult. Another question why a person to create such AI (except for research).

Regarding the aliens that humanoidity, that similarity to earthly species is the result of limited thinking. We create a new image only on the basis of available. Mona Lisa is far from straight and curved lines and geometric shapes, but created on this basis. Hanars look unusual, but it seems that they are impressed by the cephalopods and jelly. Even absurd ideas, they say, we will fly to another planet and do not notice a reasonable life, because it will be a civilization of stones, are built on the earthly concept of stone. Although okay, there are minerals not only on earth.
But restrictions, purely scientific, are, as far as I know. For example, the largest number of atomic compounds is possible in silicon and carbon, on which life on our planet is based and which has advantages in this regard.

That’s what, and unreal stupidity is very real, especially among the military. If he himself had not seen how the battalion commander ordered to lock the violent drunken warrant officer in an arms – he would never have believed it, but, nevertheless.

Well, in humanoid robots, I was always embarrassed by the impossibility of their construction, there are just more or less normal everything, innovative materials, all sorts of stabilizers, reactive traction, anti -gravity, zero element, etc.D. I am more confused by the expediency of their construction, technical, economic, military, as an example of the same line, robots do not make anything special there, they do not have any specific skills, they simply hit the monsters, then what prevented this money from building a huge coastal artillery installation, a missile battery, Avio group, orbital weapons, and anything more effective, more effective, more effective.And cheaper.

Well, this comparison is not quite appropriate. This is not about just “military”, but a carefully selected team, where drinkers and other similar characters will not fall. For example, I heard about the pilots who sat after the flights and burned the kerosene in the cargo compartment. So, they do not take them to the astronauts, as they say.

No need to confuse «firm» science fiction and cosmoorer.
«The stupidity of the crew» is just a pick -up to a specific film.
You said that aliens from the «arrival» have no language, that absolute is not true.

I can’t even come up with a situation when having all the necessary technologies, someone will solve “hmm, and let’s write down a huge humanoid robot, and we will even make him a huge sword and a machine gun that he will hold in his hands!».

Tell me honestly, you heard about sopromat?

And do you know the meanings of all the words that you use. For example «correlated».

You are energy consisting of atoms and molecules that are millions of years – you cannot just take and disappear – this contradicts physics.

Molecules that are millions of years old. Atoms that do not change.
To talk about physics, it was necessary to at least visit this physics.

About energy consisting of matter, this is generally a gun. It feels like you randomly compiled words that you heard somewhere without taking care of the meaning.

At the expense of humanoids, except for “arrival”, there are no humanoids in the series “Babylon-5”.There is a race of good (such as angels) and the race are bad (called shadows).And for AI, you better get acquainted with book works A.Azimov and others. science fiction writers «Old School.»

It seems to me that behind the «idea of ​​the director» is often hidden laziness of the scriptwriter. And in my opinion, in this case, elementary human logic is disturbed, which should be present in any fantastic work. And if you liked it, then I’m glad for you. I went to me “Prometheus” in due time, and I somehow spit on “strangers”, I did not like a single.
