For example, in The Return of the King, after Frodo and Sam destroy the ring, Mount Doom entirely erupts and rivers of lava flow past them as they rest on a rock above the flow. According to thermal laws of physics, it would be impossible for Frodo and Sam to remain alive in such an environment, due to all of the principles of heat flow, conduction, convection and radiation. Similarly, Aladdin's escape from the Cave of Wonders in Disney's 1992 classic would be rather implausible, compounded by the fact that he was in a closed space, despite the speed at which he was flying.<br />

Superheroes have captivated the attention of audiences
worldwide for decades. The core appeal
of superheroes lies within their extraordinary abilities, endowed upon them by
any number of sources, from radioactive spiders to godlike powers to remarkable
ingenuity. Whatever the origin story,
consumers of superhero media have flocked to theaters for over half a century
with the intention of being awed by ever-improving special effects. The last decade in particular has rekindled
the frenzy for costumed vigilantes, and vast leaps in CGI have been the
catalyst for it. Upon executing these grandiose
special effects, studios take great care to provide the utmost level of realism
possible, but more often than not, disbelief must be suspended in order to
enjoy movies of this nature. At their
core superhero films are outrageous, but at times they can push things too far-
even small things. The devil is in the
details, and while small errors regarding physics can be overlooked by most, a
careful observer is able to identify moments where the realism slips just a
little. <o:p></o:p></div>

<i>The Avengers</i> is a modern
worldwide phenomenon without a doubt. In
contrast to DC’s gritty <i>Dark Knight</i>
series, Marvel’s series of films following Spider-Man, Thor, and Iron Man are
fun and entertaining, if a bit extreme in their action. For the most part, Marvel’s latest films have
been believable, though if we take the time to look closely at scenes from each
of these films, small mistakes in physics can be recognized. <o:p></o:p></div>

The first film to be analyzed is the hugely successful <i>Iron Man</i> sequel. Tony Stark, super genius and unapologetic
narcissist, has engineered a biotic suit which grants him the ability to fly
and perform other feats which are humanly impossible. Near the start of the film he is hosting the annual
exposition of Stark Industries’ latest technology, Stark Expo. In his ever-so-flashy style, clad head to toe
in the Iron Man suit, Tony leaps from a chopper at an extreme altitude and
descends on the Expo. Plummeting at
impossible speed, he falls through a hatch in the ceiling and lands, unharmed,
in a crouch in the center of the stage.
A cool entrance, but is this scene truly realistic, even while Tony
wears his futuristic, highly advanced, robotic suit? Not exactly. The principles of momentum and
force of impact tell us that the momentum of an object depends on not just its
velocity but also on weight, or mass. To
stop an object with large momentum requires either a large force to stop the
object quickly or a small force which stops the object over time. Thus, in reality, Tony’s landing on the
showroom floor would have been more horrific than spectacular. Given that most aircraft fly at least 30,000
feet, coupled with the fact that Tony not only freefell from that altitude but
also engaged the thrusters toward the end of his descent, the speed at which he
was descending must have been phenomenal.
Even to stop him safely from a freefall of that height would have been
impossible. Realistically, falling at
that speed with such a small time of impact would require a huge amount of
force. In all likelihood, despite the
advanced nature of the Iron Man suit, Tony would have ended up as a pile of
gore amidst a twisted wreckage of metal.
The only way that Tony could have landed safely would have been to slow
his descent a great deal before landing, or to land on a very soft
surface.</div>

Even gods are subject to physics when they visit Earth. <i>Thor </i>may be the son of Odin but he is
still made of flesh and blood. Toward
the end of Thor’s debut Marvel film, he has been banished to Earth and his
powers have been sapped by his jealous brother, god of mischief, Loki. Loki sends a very nasty, nigh-indestructible
metal knight creature to do away with his helpless brother. Their father, Odin,
awakens from the godly coma Loki had placed him in, and rejuvenates Thor’s
power once again. Mjolnir, Thor’s
hammer, breaks the sound barrier while rushing to return to Thor’s outstretched
hand, and he catches it no problem. A
cool moment of triumph, but is it truly realistic, despite Thor being a
god? Not exactly. To break the sound barrier, an object must be
traveling at least 761 miles per hour.
Realistically, keeping in mind the principles of momentum and force of
impact mentioned previously, even Thor himself couldn’t catch that hammer. Similar to the case in <i>Iron Man 2</i>, for Thor to catch Mjolnir without flinching would
require the hammer to slow significantly before coming into contact. Otherwise, in the real world, Thor would be
returning to Asgard a day late and an arm short. Being a little more lenient, a more
believable reaction would be a bit of recoil on the part of Thor’s arm, to cushion
the blow. <o:p></o:p></div>

Similarly, in the most recent iteration of the <i>Spider-Man</i> franchise, Peter Parker pursues
The Lizard across the Brooklyn Bridge.
As the villain makes his way down the bridge, he flings a car off the
side and Peter struggles to save them and their occupants. Peter leaps onto the ledge of the bridge and
attaches a web to the back bumper of the falling vehicle. With the web in his hands, Peter stops the
car from plummeting into the river below.
A cool save, but is it truly realistic?
Not exactly. Despite Peter Parker’s
powers, his speedy reflexes and ability to shoot webs and climb on walls, it
would take a much greater force than simply his own strength to stop the car
from falling at that speed. Given that
an average sedan weighs over 3000 pounds, realistically Peter would have been
pulled right off the bridge with it- and maybe lost a limb or two. This isn’t even factoring in the strength of
the web he produces. Not only does Peter
stop the car’s descent but he is able to attach the web to the bridge’s
railing. A more realistic approach would
have been to make a series of webs attached to the supports of the bridge
itself. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
All of these observations aside, the phenomenon of superhero
movies speaks for itself. The world as a
whole does not need absolute realism in their films, particularly ones of this
nature. In fact, absolute adherence to
the laws of physics would extract the very thing that makes them
enjoyable. It is media such as this that
reminds us to relax and believe in the power of imagination and pure
entertainment.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>The Matrix </i>has
become a milestone for special effects in the history of film. When it released in 1999 it grossed four
hundred and sixty-three million at the box office. The subsequent films in the franchise fared
even better. It is safe to say that it
is ingrained into the pop culture of the modern world, and analysis of this
success is equally simple. The source of
<i>The Matrix’</i>s<i> </i>fame lies not so much in its fascinating concept, but in its
groundbreaking execution. The
cyber-world in which the majority of the action takes place is the aspect which
marked this film as one of the greats of its time, as the very fabric of
physics is bent by the characters at will, making for its trademark spectacular
special effects. Specifically, the three most significant physical manipulations
by the characters include defying of gravity, slowing of time, and extremely
swift movement.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the film, two worlds exist parallel to one another, the
world in which mankind has been enslaved by machines, and the world within the
collective conscious of the sedate human race, called The Matrix. The audience is fascinated even in the
opening scene when one of the main characters, Trinity, is nearly taken into
custody by a team of police officers, yet defeats every last one in
hand-to-hand combat. But not just any
martial art— Trinity seems to slow time in midair as she prepares for a kick,
later runs across a wall to avoid gunfire, and leaps across an entire city
street to escape. We are given a taste
of the capability of characters within The Matrix before five minutes of the
film has passed. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If the action within the film was to be classified, there exist
three defining types of influence on the physics within the Matrix itself. One of the most well-known of these is the manipulation
of gravity. Trained characters are able
to perform numerous acrobatics which would be impossible in our own world,
including running along walls, backflip off of surfaces, leap impossible
distances and heights. For example, when
the main character, Neo, is first employing his newfound knowledge of martial
arts within a training program against his mentor, Morpheus, Neo performs a run
straight up the wall and backflips across the room. Morpheus plants a kick in Neo’s chest and
sends him flying ten feet into the wall.
In a later training program, Neo finds himself standing on a rooftop two
hundred stories high. Morpheus makes an
incredible leap to a building nearby, but Neo has not yet fully mastered
control over the properties of the Matrix, so he falls to the street
below. Learning the aspects of the
physics within the Matrix is exciting for the viewer because they can relate to
Neo’s initial inability to perform these incredible feats.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Another aspect of the physics within the Matrix is a
residual effect of the defiance of gravity, extreme strength. In the final fight, Agent Smith sweeps Neo’s
leg and with one hand punches him across subway platform. This kind of action is performed throughout
the film. Several people are simply
picked up and thrown as if they weigh nothing.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The pinnacle of trademark action within <i>The Matrix </i>is the characters’ ability to apparently slow time, or
move with such extreme speed that it appears this way. The most well-known
sequence in the film occurs near the end, in which Neo bends backward dodging a
clip of enemy bullets. We see this
action in slow motion including the trails of the bullets, though later Trinity
tells Neo that she has never seen anyone move so quickly before. This sequence is an example of both defying
gravity and extremely swift movement. In one of the final scenes in which Neo
battles the main adversary, Agent Smith, both opponents launch themselves off
of pillars and into the air, firing bullets from an airborne flying
position. This sequence is a mixture of
defying gravity and slowing time, as the two characters travel through the air
and the trails of their bullets breaking the sound barrier are apparent to the
viewer. After the two collide, Neo
performs a flying spinning jump to regain his footing, an action that is
completely impossible with the laws of physics with which we are familiar. Later
in the fight, Neo leaps through the air, delivering multiple kicks to the enemy,
traps him in a headlock and slams him against the ceiling, then backflips off
of the subway tracks and onto the platform.
In the final climactic scene, Neo is shot multiple times by the enemy
Agents and falls dead. Due to his
ability to control the Matrix, he rises again and stops all of their bullets
with a motion of his hand. This is the
most extreme of the bending of physical rules within the Matrix. Until the sequel, that is.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">All of these sequences of action are thrown into sharp
relief by setting the ‘real world’ side by side with the Matrix. Despite the physical prowess of the freed
humans, the physics of the realistic half of the movie make the action of the
trained characters within the Matrix all the more spectacular. However, the physical vulnerability of the
characters within ‘the real world’ as well as the possibility of death in both
worlds if death occurs within the Matrix creates a sense of suspense even
despite the incredible abilities of the characters.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In conclusion, <i>The
Matrix</i> found its success (and ultimately the success of the trilogy) due to
the revolutionary special effects utilized within the film. The heart of these special effects is the manipulation
of the laws of physics, made possible by bending the rules of the computer
program within the Matrix. The three
main actions used within the Matrix, impossible due to the physical laws of our
own world, are the trademark defying of gravity, slowing of time, and extremely
swift movement. The story and world of
the film grant logic and justification to the incredible feats performed by the
characters, while the ‘real world’ in the film grounds us in reality and gives
the bending of physics within the Matrix even greater impact.</span><o:p></o:p></div>
