Nukes and other explosions

[linebaugh]

I think its a true dissensus movie and all should watch it

 

[Mr. Tea]

I shall be watching Oppenheimer and keeping a keen eye out for any inaccurate physics.

Likewise Barbie.

 

[luka]

what is the age gap between you two

 

[linebaugh]

Stan and I? tea and I?

 

[Corpsey]

Stan and I? tea and I?

They did have a couple ephemeral shots of Feynman with his bongos, but he never got a proper introduction. Granted he didn’t seem that important, storywise.

I’m 25 so three years

That was feynman?

 

[luka]

old enough to know better

 

[Clinamenic]

That was feynman?

Yeah, he may not have ever been addressed by name in the film though. He only had a handful of lines

 

[Mr. Tea]

Feynman was one of the greatest scientists of all time. He doesn't have to justify his bongos to you, whatever age he was.

 

[Clinamenic]

Fun talk he gave about his experience there:

 

[linebaugh]

Wha

So weird. Also weird when Niels Bohr calls him an “American Prometheus” to his face, as a nod to the title of the biography.

Gotta say, I was underwhelmed. Interstellar is one of my favorite films, and I think my expectations were too high for this one.

What did you think of tenet?

 

[Clinamenic]

Wha
What did you think of tenet?

Tenet might be my least favorite of Nolan’s films, but I could rewatch it. I actually saw it at a drive-in so it was sensorily suboptimal.

 

[version]

Five seconds of Fred Durst rapping and you start praying for the ICBMs to fly

He's a great dancer.

 

[Mr. Tea]

I'm sure I've spammed this here before, but Bunnyhausen and I collaborated on an Oppenheimer-flavoured Black Sabbath tribute a few years ago.


(I should point out that she bears no blame for an idea as cheesy as Oppenheimer samples on an industrial-metal tune; that was all me.)

 

[craner]

I love this thread Corpsey.

 

[HMGovt’s Glorious Return!]

🤩

Very probably the highest temperature ever achieved on Earth. Marvel as it flash boils the ocean down to the bedrock.

Terribly underrated shot. One for the fans.
