that scene in every sci-fi movie

that's science, baby

I would love to play the comic relief, “In english, please???” guy for this cinematic masterpiece

[journeytotheotherside]

I always use complicated jargon I know others won’t understand in life or death situations where time is of the essence, it’s nice that movies make me feel represented on screen like this

[thebatman]

Truly magnificent how sticking a pen through paper makes us all astrophysicists on the spot.

[Manuel-gkrv]

The wormhole explanation is the new kind of 'this is an EMP, an electromagnetic pulse. It is an intense burst of energy that will knock out the power of whatever system we need to avoid on this mission." that they used to do literally every time it came up

[Taikamuna]

Next, you should show how the main character gets a crazy idea in the second act of the movie and never tells it to anyone but everyone just plays along

[thedapperdolphin]

“Look, I know that everyone in this room is a genius scientist is this field of study, but I still feel the need to explain this concept to everyone like you’re a bunch of toddlers.”

[alphonsusrouis]

I love how your title, "Man carrying Thing", applies to most, if not, all characters in your skits. For example, one of the characters in this skit is a scientist carrying a piece of paper and a pen, while the other character is a concerned person carrying the burden of being the comic relief.

[genericallyentertaining]

The least realistic part of Interstellar is that they sent Cooper on a mission to travel through a wormhole to another solar system...without ever apparently bothering to explain to him what a wormhole is prior to when he's about to go through it.

[abrasmage]

"Now stick a pencil through it."
_uses a pen_

How can you "drive your point home" if you don't even use the correct writing equipment? This story has some serious -worm- _plot_ holes

[samholbrook]

You forgot “you would think the smallest distance between them is a straight line, but actually…”

[juliansiri]

Fun fact: a piece of paper and a pen are the only two things astrophysics in movies carry on their presence at all times.

[Grivian]

The funniest thing is that both of them are engineers/scientists, the best humanity has to offer

[MrRhoadsRules]

You forgot to mention that both characters speaking would also be so comically over-qualified to even ask if they knew about one of Einstein's most famous theories.

[UnclePhil]

Yep every movie with science requires the “English please” guy.

[alyssa]

"We can use a wormhole to travel through time and alternate dimensions to save the world"
"Ok how do we find this wormhole and utilize it's power?"
"IDK we just do it"

[cumbrap]

I want one where the guy explaining has no idea what he's talking about
"So imagine the universe is like a big apple, now imagine a hungry worm chews inside of it. That's a wormhole, gentlemen."

[danielrider]

To top it off, the scene in Interstellar contains the observation that a sphere is, in fact, a 3-D circle.

[kennyclips]

I love how the plan is to literally bend the universe with no further explanation

[radgoncan]

This explanation started with the movie Event Horizon. You could also do a similar video for how every astronaut movie explains the slingshot effect.

[UpIsNotJump]

that Event Horizon trailer on Netflix really clears things up
