for anyone who's ever shouted at a movie: "THERE'S NO SOUND IN SPACE!"

 from the website:
 
Most of the top-grossing movies of all time are science fiction... with emphasis on the word fiction.
 
The movies may not be bad, but sometimes the science is. I know they are fiction, so I try not to take them too seriously.
 
My philosophy is: these movies have made an impression, and if it's wrong, at least I can use that impression to teach Good Astronomy.
 
Sure, they're fiction, but why not use that fiction to show some fact?
