Wired’s Top 10 Unlikely Movie Scientists. Granted, they had to stretch a bit to get to 10 (Dr. Bunsen Honeydew? A literal muppet). Plus, nobody has ever accused The Fantastic Four of adhering to the laws of physics. The rest I’ll buy – whoever cast Denise Richards in The World is Not Enough and Elisabeth Shue in The Saint was obviously drunk. How about an honorable mention for the cast of Hackers? They’re not scientists, but it requires an incredible ability to suspend disbelief to buy Angelina Jolie and Matthew Lillard as elite hackers.
this seems like a good time for a link to The Greatest Movie Link of All Time: Insultingly Stupid Movie Physics.
