Funny how there was a Quantum Leap from 'Physically Possible' to 'Scientific Theories'. {nm}

This WOLV2 clip is ludricous. It's not physically possible to jump forward on a moving train. Antibody Jul 08, 17:11

Are you really looking for reality from a movie about a superhero that cannot be killed with magic retractable claws? {nm} dioneta Jul 08, 17:14

But can be killed with other types of retractable claws? {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Jul 08, 17:21

Sure, when it comes to the laws of physics. {nm} Antibody Jul 08, 17:30

There are X-men that teleport, alter weather, etc..... Physics do not apply to Comic Books {nm} dioneta Jul 08, 17:45

There still must still be an consistent internal logic applied. That's the difference between good science-fiction, and bad sci-fi. {nm} Antibody Jul 08, 17:48

There is scifi logic and then there is comic book blockbuster logic {nm} JDolphin Jul 08, 17:51

I disgree. There is good movie logic (see Spider-Man 2 train scene) and bad movie logic (that WOLV2 train scene). {nm} Antibody Jul 08, 17:55

burden for willing suspension of disbelief is on the audience not the director. Its all subjective. {nm} Moviesnob Jul 08, 18:36

It's on the filmmakers. If they stretch the credibility too far, then they will lose a majority of the audience who won't enjoy and like it. {nm} Antibody Jul 08, 21:51

Everyone is eagerly anticipating your thoughts on movie Time-Travel. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Jul 08, 18:37

and faster than light speed travel {nm} forlorne Jul 08, 19:42

There are scientific theories for time travel and faster than light speed travel. {nm} Antibody Jul 08, 21:57

Oh sure - Amazingly, both of these will occur before You-Know-Who implements full Instant-Replay. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Jul 08, 22:41

You can establish "an internal movie logic". Wolverine has not established mutant power of super-speed that breaks the laws of physics. {nm} Antibody Jul 09, 09:56

Lol ! Thank you for that {nm} JMT-NL Jul 08, 21:24

directv cinem, order 2 xmen movies, get free ticket to wolverine {nm} islander Jul 08, 17:22

It reminds me of the schoolyard scene in the second Matrix film: concept A, execution F. {nm} second gary Jul 08, 17:37

Since he's a superhero I guess he can jump at a faster speed than the train is moving. {nm} taranev Jul 08, 18:35

Only impossible if the train is moving at the speed of light. On the other hand, sound does not travel in the vaccuum of space. Buy BONDS 20 Jul 08, 20:38

Every Marvel flick is ludicrous. Or, just about every big Hollywood flick is LUDICROUS. I don't think many people care much. {nm} goodvibe61 Jul 08, 21:42

If you are strong enough you can... bbb101 Jul 09, 10:31
