I was browsing Wikipedia and I somehow made it to the 2006 Superman movie, and being a frequent BABlog reader I knew he would comment on something I saw:

My first thought was "red dwarfs don't go supernova" noting again that I am a frequent BABlog reader... Infact my initial thought on this was the universe hasn't been around long enough for one thing, universe is around 14 billion years old right? Red dwarfs have been thought to live for around 100 billion to 6 trillion (6 trillion is on the impossibly high spectrum) years roughly, and even then they don't end in a bang.

I found it quite funny, as I've known what hollywood can do to scientific knowledge, even at a basic level. Also, in Phil's article I noticed how he said something along the lines of "Red Giant" which is false, is it not? Krypton was said to orbit a red dwarf (as brought up previously)

Anyways, I haven't watched the movie and due to all the anti-science in it I don't think I would want to, since now every time I watch the movie "Armageddon" I now tend to point every bit of inaccurate information I see in it (which is quite a lot, yes?)

Odd way to make a first impression on a forum, but I'm often well thought-out. I loved the review of Superman returns, even though I didn't read some of it... By the way Phil, I caught the Sci-Fi special with you in it a while back, but the show generally disappointed me. Anyone else notice the sound in space?
