I am studying Physics.
I frequently get triggered by films that handle mathematics or physics poorly, and it ruins a lot of stuff for me.
Are there any good films with accurate physics and maths within?
What is it with physics students and getting worked up about films not getting written by physicists? Are you just trying to draw attention to how much more you know than the writer?
>Are there any good films with accurate physics and maths within?
You're the physicist, why don't you tell us?

The Martian is hailed by real scientists for finally being a movie that depicts science correctly

Memes aside, the optics of the black hole was fantastic
>>68676742
If a universe doesn'tfollow the laws of physics it's an immediate suspension of disbelief breaker.
If they at least had fantastic laws they'd stick to it would be okay, bit most of the time it's also inconsistent with the physics IN the universe

Saw a news stories about some faggot recommending school teachers show Interstellar to their pupils to teach them how a wormhole and time dilation work
Also there's the part where the black hole visuals were actually generated by some expensive af where the studio funded the costs of the simulation and both scientists and nolan benefitted

the remake isn't good
this is excellent

There are plenty of great films without any mathematics or physics at all.
Watch those instead and stop the fucking splerging.

"Real scientists"
What does that mean? The only people who know about Mars benefit from the Martian being popular. If they were being honest, they'd tell you that sandstorms like the one the entire plot hangs from are impossible on mars, and that the hermes is woefully over designed.
I am so tired of the deification of scientists. We're just normal people with ulterior motives.

That's all you're implying. If there's nothing you'd "sperg out for", then you don't care about anything. Should dinosaurs always be big scaly reptiles that drag their tails?

>>68678706
stop being a cunt, I can understand you getting triggered by an absolute shit management of science in a movie but whining about irrelevant stuff like overdesignment is just sperging
science fiction is science with fiction, the point of it is show fake stuff who might hold at some level inside the real world
t. also a physics student
>>68676742
they are literal autists who think they are the only people who notice goofs in films.

>>68678773
That's the most retarded argument twist I've seen in a long time.
Films are fantastical and fictitious works most commonly designed for a simple-minded audience. Most of the time high-level physics, or however you'd refer to it, being portrayed accurately is not even considered as a priority. Getting upset that something you study isn't accurately portrayed in films is just as retarded as all the dipshits complaining about not having enough representation in Hollywood.
Not everything is going to be specifically designed to cater to you. Get the fuck over it.
>>68678901
Your post is indecipherable. Try again.
You either think the things shown in sci-fi are possible, or you think fiction negates the word science in science fiction. I can't tell.
>>68679075
Ah. People who actually understand physics and space are too small a group to have anything other than books?
All science fiction in visual media is therefore for the lowest common denominator?
We are in agreement.
>>68678843
Oscar bait is usually boring yes
>>68675968
I double major in physics and mathematics, shut the fuck up and suck it up, it's a fucking movie you autist.
>>68675968
>>68679140
Yes, we are in agreement on the fact that nobody actually cares about what you want.
However we still haven't agreed on my core point, that being the fact you need to deal with it and stop whining about it like an incessant bitch. It's like women complaining about a lack of directors. If you want accurate sci-fi, go make it, or shut the fuck up about it.
>>68676742
I'm a physics AND chemistry guy and it doesn't bother me unless it's a documentary.
It's fictional. What's the big deal?
>>68675968
I am studying physics as well
doesn't bother me but then I don't have autism
>>68679275
Again, i'm sure you must have things you care about. I don't know why you are so incapable of realising that people only complain when they care about something.
I care about people understanding the universe. Nobody really cares about space.
Keep it up. You're the reason science fiction is a children's genre.
>>68679098
there's no reason to whine about irrelevant stuff like an overdesigned spacecraft or suit, different low probability events ocurring a the same time or shit like that because at the end it is still fiction

Not him, but most of my fellow students are happy go lucky meme-spouting faggots.
It's the Double E majors that are the autists.
Physicists are the jocks of science. Math guys are just cynical assholes.
>>68675968
Well, you should definitely consider killing yourself.
>>68679488
>>68679465

don't fall in the memes
autists end up in maths, engineering and other stuff
>>68679388
And yet all you're doing is bitching and moaning to no effect other than having random people on the internet call you autistic.
If you care go do something about it. Join a production crew. Become a writer or director. Actually change things.
But don't just sit on your ass talking about how much you care and how much the plebs don't understand like a whiny fag achieving nothing whilst trying to maintain some kind of intellectual high ground, because all that makes you is a massive cunt.

This.
It must trigger something in the brain or whatever.
''Oh I know more thant he guy for noticing such a thing. I cant wait to let others know how smart I really am''
Its as if they wanted to prove a point to the world, that they matter or some shit like that.
>>68679538
But math invented physics, it's the only branch that should even be considered a 'science'.
If your major doesn't have engineering somewhere in the title then you're an idiot.
>>68679538
>jocks of science
>>68679568
physics is even more autistic maths
>>68679405
So the word science is just there to entice idiots who worship science as santa?
>>68679585
>And yet all you're doing is bitching and moaning to no effect other than having random people on the internet call you autistic.

>>68679630
>But math invented physics
you got it wrong, physics is a branch of philosophy and maths are the tools for physics
>>68675968
Apparently "The Man Who Knew Infinity" has been praised by mathematicians.
>>68679672
Not him but physics nowadays requires working in big international teams to build giant complicated instruments
Math is where autists can go into their mom's attic for 10 years and come back with a proof
Any physics students got any good stories involving stupid people and The Big Bang Theory? I pity you all for being into physics before it became as popularized and memed in Hollywood.
>>68679587
>>68679671
Which scientists do the celebrity endorsements?
Physicists.
Boom, just went supernova in this thread.
>>68679630
Well, science is predicated on experimentation. Math is more like a strange prognostic tool that physicists (and other scientists) use to inform the route their investigations should go.
Biologists are also universally sluts.
>>68679693
if you don't want to understand what everybody is trying to tell you I won't waste more time in it
>>68679672
believe me, it's not
Interstellar had good physics and was a great movie
Offical power ranking :
Math > Physics > Chemistry > Engineering > Comp. Science > Literal dog shit >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Biology
>>68679859
>Celebrity endorsements = jocks
Not even slightly. Judging by this thread the physicists are just the average joe plebs.
>>68679850
I started my degree at the same time it became popular in my country
I remember people memeing on me and comparing me to the characters and such
it didn't helped I never liked it at all
>>68679916

>>68679916
I know two biologists. They're both completely fucked in almost every way imaginable. On this basis I trust your ranking entirely.
>>68680020
Maths is liteterally the purest form of science
That wizard movie handled chemistry pretty well albeit via alchemy
Also physicist here, I'm mostly ok with little things but I'll get triggered over pivotal points being stupidly wrong. Anyway about the image Sunshine.. cringed the whole movie, watched it with my sister she's not a physicist but she also hated the movie especially third act. Avoid this one
Are there accurate depiction of Newton's laws?
>>68679538
Physics majors are by far the weirdest, most autistic group of people I've ever been around.
>>68680272
You've obviously never been around social science majors, haha
>>68680060
math is actually not a science at all since it's more worried about imaginary stuff rather than the real world
>>68680462
Nothing is 'real' anyway, what are you even trying to say
>>68680272
>Attending Public """""Universities"""""
>>68675968
>Are there any good films with accurate physics and maths within?
No.
The only films Hollywood fucks up more than "war" movies are films with science / physics themes.
They don't care.
They just want the shekels.
>>68680521
>Nothing is 'real' anyway

>>68680462
But even so, there is sequence, and order.
Except in Hollywood...
>>68680671
Prove something objectively exists then; you literally cannot.
Can we please just ban students from talking about anything? I used to be a student too and yeah I know it feels like your opinions matter, but they really don't. Wait until you've actually experienced the real world before you start acting like you know what you're talking about.
>>68679885
>if you don't want to understand what everybody is trying to tell you I won't waste more time in it
science fiction movies are for idiots, since the vfx production costs require large amounts of customers to recoup the investment.
it's just pathetic, that's all.
>>68680764
I could prove the ground exists by having you jump off the roof of a building and having it stop your fall.
>>68680808
just like you just did?
>>68680764
Ah solipsism, the last refuge of the incompetent.
>>68680764
I wasn't saying that
maths are just more abstract and more of a tool rather than a science itself
>>68680920
>Ah solipsism...
You spelled morons wrong...
>>68675968
Interstellar does a pretty good job at trying to stick with as much science as they can.
>>68680900
>>68680920
>>68680964
>>68680953
Still waiting for that proof, take your time.
>>68680871
then don't ask for sci-fi movies if you don't like them
>>68680989
Jump off that roof and get back to us.
>>68680989
>phenomenology
Oh god, do idiots still fall for that?
>>68680901
Uh as I said I'm no longer a student and I have a career with experience in the real world outside my parents house or an insular university so that entitles me to express some opinions.
>>68680953
Physics is applied maths
>>68681039
You don't understand phenomenology. he will say that even if he jumped off a roof he couldn't be sure he jumped off a roof because doing so and the injuries he sustained could just be a hallucination.
Solipsism is the ultimate end of all unhinged philosophical dialogue.
>>68681058
>he really thinks his opinion is worth more than anyone else
>>68681079
Math is not a science, that's why string theory can only ever be a hypothesis.

The maths featured isn't even that hard
>>68681187
Thinking =/= real
>>68681079
physics is the philosophy of the nature
maths is a product of the logic which is itself a branch of philosophy
physics uses maths as a tool to express itself, both are related but still separated things

let me show you
Fuck I am a physics and math major about to enter my junior year. My degree is in computer science but I came back in my 30s to change fields
Let me tell you the people fucking suck. The comp sci nerds were at least fun sometimes and pretty chill. These physics kids are fucking know it all, socially awkward beyond even the computer nerds, and have no future.
Why did I do this??
>>68681677
Must have had some kind of brain injury.
I consider myself pretty awkward and shy, and I'm among the more social people in my class. I'm in my second year and I probably would have dropped out if my social anxiety wouldn't be so obvious among more social people.
