I think movie producers should be required to take a course in Physics before making a science fiction film. I find it hard to watch most sci-fi movies because of my basic sense of Newton's Laws. But for films like KungFu Hustle and Kill Bill, the disregard for the laws of Physics doesn't seem to bother me at all. For some reason, I think that SCIENCE FICTION should be an accurate (scientific) portrail of a lie (fiction) whereas with gratuitous martial arts flicks, it's all lies (fiction) in my mind, even though they are both pure special effects.
