Physics Errors in everyday things...

explosions in space that make a bang

Fires in space

laser beams that make whining sounds (and travel at about 60 mph)

space "fighters" in Star Wars that need little wings and bank, dive and climb when they change direction

Comet trail which blows behind the comet, irrespective of its relation to the sun (Star Trek: Deep Space 9)

The energy beams in X-Men that fight each other when they intersect

The nuclear explosion on the Moon that deflects it from its orbit (without pulverising it) in Spce 1999

The gravitational effect of an exploding star "vanishing". Worse, the "effect" is felt instantly light-years away (Star Trek)

Google for "Movie Physics" and you'll find lots of stuff. Star Trek figures very heavily.

Roadrunner and Coyote cartoons defy physics regularly. Not only do RR and Coyote hang in mid air sometimes, but other times the cliffs they stand on hang in mid air while the whole cliff itself falls.

I used to get a kick out of the old 6 Million Dollar Man and Bionic Woman shows. Their bionic legs could make them run 60mph without shattering their fragile hip bones or spine. And their one Bionic arm could lift a car without ripping itself out of their shoulder socket.

In Superman Returns he lifts a whole airplane by its nose. The metal in the skin of that plane must be incredibly dense and structurally reinforced. Also, Superman doesn't get driven into the dirt by the weight of the thing.

Sounds like a fun class.

People not bleeding to death after falling/getting thrown through windows.

Heres a good one: In that star wars movie where the go to a city under water (a new hope..?)
there is there is a force field that keeps the water from getting in. However, humans can travel quite
freely through this field, being over 70% water. Even if they where did possess this technology they
surely wouldn't use a friggin' catapult to try to defeat an army of robot soldiers.

My pet fave; Lightning that occurs at the same time as the thunder. (Also explosions (or anything) at a few hundred meters or more that you see and hear simlutaneously)

Ignoring conservation of momentum in cowboy gunfights. I won't even go into Terminator 3.

Cartoon Physics is acceptable, although it should only happen in obvious animation--re Duck Dodgers of the Twenty Third and a Half Century.
