Half in the Bag: Moonfall

[@hoyaguru7509]

How did they not mention the absolute best scene in the whole movie? The people on the ground are running from the Moon, it is just about scraping the Earth, and the Moon's gravity is pulling everything up. They are running towards a wooden shed, to get inside, because that will save them. Right before they get inside, the little boy is pulled up into the air by the Moon's gravity, and someone grabs him, and pulls him inside the shed. As he gets inside the shed, he falls to the ground. The wooden shed blocked the Moon's gravity. Watch it again, I spit potato chips across the room I was laughing so hard. Who knew that wood could cancel gravity?

[@AIIEYESONME]

IT's like that scene from Independence Day, where the fire is swallowing everything in the tunnel, and everyone's favorite pet Retriever is running in front of the all encompassing Hollywood fireball. Then that Black Women pulls the Retriever safely inside a service tunnel in the nick of time and the fireball ( combusting all oxygen in the tunnel) inexplicably passes safely on by the dog and Women seemingly bc they are a couple feet inside the door. That's not how fire works, that's not how physics work (that's not how ANYOFTHISWORKS!) cheesy Hollywood hack.. Lol

[@RoganGunn]

Wood absolutely can cancel gravity. My wooden shelf holds all my junk despite the gravity of the entire Earth pulling it down, and the moon has only 1/6th the gravity of the Earth, so... Oops, I forgot to put "Well, ackshually..." at the beginning. 😜 In all seriousness, the scientific accuracy in this movie, in fact all Roland Emmerich's movies, makes Star Wars look like a documentary. 🙄 I mean a white dwarf _inside the moon?!_ How did it get there without anyone noticing? It would have more gravitational pull than the sun! Not to mention white dwarfs shrink when their mass increases, so one small enough to fit inside the moon would likely be beyond it's Chandrasekhar Limit (~1.4 solar masses), and would immediately explode in a Type 1a supernova. Also if the moon approaches Earth too close, when it hits the Roche Limit it would be torn up by Earth's gravity and become a ring system. Not before superheating the atmosphere with all the debris that does impact the Earth, so we'd all be cooked way before it _scraped_ the Earth... 🤓 Kurzgesagt already made a video about this unlikely scenario. So this is the first blockbuster movie to be ripped off of a KZbin video, and it still managed to get it wrong.

21:57 How cool to see an Isaac Arthur clip on RLM. That TNG Dyson sphere episode is actually not what Freeman Dyson imagined, the original idea was a system of independently orbiting habitats and solar collectors, which he called a "shell", presumably the name was inspired by an atom's electron shell, not a literal solid shell like an egg shell. It wouldn't be one massive single structure, which probably wouldn't be possible even with hypothetical future super materials, unless you used active support. The actual Dyson swarm/shell concept is actually doable with today's technology. Enormously expensive and a building project with a scale humanity has never attempted before, even *one* long term orbital would be, but still technically possible. Realistically it wouldn't be feasible until we have better automation, it's not gonna be dudes in spacesuits with hammers constructing them. Also, I highly recommend Isaac Arthur to any fan of scifi/speculative futurism.

@@BigTylt Totally solid dyson spheres are kind of just a scifi meme. Not only materially and structurally unfeasible compared to a swarm but you lose the utility of having the individual habitats be able to move around relative to each other. Anyways IIRC Isaac also has a video where he maths out roughly how many Oneil cylinder size habitats could be built if we deconstructed the entire solar system, the number was in the BILLIONS Earth's mass converted into habitats would yield literally millions of times the living area because most of Earth's mass is "wasted" providing gravity. Whereas an orbital only needs a few meters of earth/ice in its shell to protect from radiation, and the gravity is from rotating. Basically human populations will be in the quadrillions before we start worrying about running out living area. Ill try to find that video and report back.

@@hjalfi Avatar was fine, but I hated how the marketing and James Cameron himself tried to sell it as the most badass cinematic experience ever. Dude has a massive ego after smashing it at the box office so many times in his career. Avatar is just exceptionally mediocre. The script is a hodgepodge of plot elements from Dances With Wolves, Fern Gully, and Disney's Pocahontas, and the visuals are not especially unique or interesting in my opinion. James Cameron didn't push the envelope with the special effects at all this time around. Just standard CG. The performances are all pretty wooden- probably because practically none of the environments were actually there, and the actors had to pretend to be seeing everything. I keep hearing rumblings about multiple Avatar sequels every few years, and every time I think "What? Why? Who wants this?"

​@@choronos Yeah, exceptionally mediocre is the way to put it. The script feels like it was assembled from an Ikea flatpack.
