… Trailer? Let's Do the Physics! "I can't imagine a blockbuster movie about superheroes without some cool physics. After all, these aren't dramas, but action movies with jumping and flying and punching. Of course, the point of the jumping and flying and punching is to advance the story, not provide a physics lesson. But nothing says they can't do both. The first trailer for Thor: Ragnarok provides a great chance to do this. The physics lesson comes at the end, when Thor meets The Hulk in an arena. They run toward each other at top speed, then jump into the air for what I'm sure will be an epic collision. This being a trailer, Marvel doesn't reveal what happens next, but I think it's safe to assume Thor delivers a pretty serious blow. I'll model this collision in two ways—the Hollywood way and the real way, because of course the Hollywood way is not at all how a real-life Thor and the Hulk would collide. And yes, I essentially just said superheroes are real…" Main page link Amicalement Armand

Some of the things you can do with CGI are great, on the other hand there are those Superhero movies. |

My calculation yields a value in Hulk punchy units to be "tree fiddy hard". Which turns out to be only marginally more damaging as a football to the groin. I am so sorry. Jonathan |

Yes Dynaman you can do some great things with CGI, and those "Superhero" movies are definitely some of them, they are after all fantasy movies and as such are not based in the real world as we know it but the Marvel/DC Universe, where everything is more spectacular and hits harder. There are however some movies supposedly set in the real world, and so some of the events that happen in them are just stupid!! have you seen any of the more recent "Fast and Furious" movies!!

> and those "Superhero" movies are definitely some of them We must be watching different superhero movies. The ones I have seen rely on way too much CGI. |
