movies.
>No, that's due to clueless directors and brain dead audiences. >It's amazing how often things explode in an obvious petrochemical >explosion... and how the hero normally escapes seconds before. Dramatic license. An explosion is a lot more exciting for an audience
to watch. Plus seeing the hero fleeing against a backdrop of flames is a
strong visual - and the movies are all about visuals.
Those of us who are interested in such things will take the time to
research it - exactly as we are doing here. It doesn't keep us from
enjoying the visuals while at the movies, even though we know how
inaccurate it is. That's called 'a willing suspension of
disbelief'. To me, the mark of a good movie is one in which you thoroughly
enjoy what's going on, even when you know how inaccurate it is.
