And how about the starfighters in Star Wars with wings, which swoop like airplanes?


The antidote to that is Kubrick's 2001, but I agree, hardly anything else.

Watched it a few weeks ago, not bad seeing as how I don't like most movies I come across (well at least the overly hyped ones).

Another recent movie that did most of the science right was The Martian. Main scientific inconsistency I noticed was the force of the storms on Mars which has very little atmosphere so not much air to blow over a rocket.
