Why Ariala I didn't know you had such a low opinion of our last kiss.

If I were to write one, I'd incorporate
somehow the superman shooting laser beams from his nipples. I'd tune in.

Physics, what little of it I can grasp,
is an amazing science, surreal and fascinating.  It's like fantasy in a way, because there are laws and factors that govern motion, etc., that we don't get.  The thing I like about most superhero fantasies is that they feel possible, like when Coyote walks straight ahead and doesn't fall until he realizes the cliff is far behind him. Reality and human nature being what they are, I don't think you have to worry about science writers mucking up your fave fantasy folk.

what if he's flying sideways and slows down to pace himself alongside
her before gently cradling her?  LOL   Um, oh... and it's only a movie.  Stupid people.

Not to mention that nothing ever REALLY touches anything else...
