I've never understood why people get so upset when he does this. I like it when someone points out the actual physics behind something that you see in films and what was done right and wrong.
Learning that something in a movie isn't scientifically accurate doesn't ruin the movie for me. I already figured it wouldn't be entirely correct and it doesn't have to be correct (unless it's supposed to be educational).
I thought it was funny when he argued that the BB-8 droid from Star Wars broke the laws of physics because a rolling mechanical ball can't roll uphill on sand.
He didn't know that the BB-8 shown in the movie rolling up dunes was a physical robot, not CGI.
It is how he does it, not that he does it.
Person who's only job is science and who is an expert on science comments about the science of things and people find a way to complain about it.
Let the man die on his silly hills. It's funny and harmless. Pull the damn stick out. Perhaps go pound sand.
He who touches the grass controls the universe
Immediately after any sci-fi movie comes out:
Internet: hey sciencey person, how accurate was the science?
Sciencey person: not.

My bitch with him is he’ll say the most stoner ass thing in the most smug way possible like it’s some insight from god.
I feel like people take these way too seriously, like some of these comments sound like it's personal. Its just a movie/book series if some one wants to poke some fun then just let em.
It's a scifi series, If in their universe sands can pass vibrations for a long range, they are welcome to do whatever they want.
Oh really? There's no space drug shat out by giant worms that will give me omnipotence? Thanks Neil, I was confused about that.
To be fair, we don't know that doesn't exist somewhere
Oh man why does he get off so much on being a complete fuckin boob
