    Episode 001 - Introduction and Superheroes

    CinemaSci Podcast - Episode 001 Notes Superhero movies Superman what I don't really care about is trying to explain how he has superpowers (flying, x-ray vision, etc...) — I'll treat that like I treat Harry Potter — just magic what I do care about is that the normal stuff (the people, the buildings, the ground, etc...) behaves like normal stuff — obeys the laws of physics worst problem that I see with superman is when he "saves" people by catching them when they've fallen a long distance.  there isn't even an attempt to match the speed, so the sudden stop or reversal of direction would make the person go splat original 1970s — catches lois falling off a building reboot (man of steel) - man fallls out of a helicopter and right before striking the ground, superman runs horizontally at great speed, catches him and then deposits him 50 feet way nearly instantly Jason Bourne Good SciFi Interstellar Martian Apollo 13 Arrival 2001 Space Odyssey [Gravity sans hair] MOVIE LINKS: Superman saves Lois Lane - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=394jYH82s2o&t=140s Superman save man falling from helicopter - https://youtu.be/xqlaXylsMwQ?t=83 Flash superman truck save - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EVfxwA_J_4 Flash correct plus torque - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtswU-tBq6g Aquaman not punching a hole through the submarine  - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2og02m_iv8 Ant man pinhole weight  - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFqRej80iIY MJ correct fall -  - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bj35E1jf4dg The boys realistic 2:36  - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HK0qxKsMPzQ Hulk jump 3:23 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udKE1ksKWDE QuickSilver Saves Everyone From Exploding X-Mansion Scene - Sweet Dreams - X-Men: Apocalypse (2016) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yeh1gPb3w1I
