Hello...I need to find a modern day movie that has at least three or more physics mistakes. I need to prove they are mistakes...as well, is Zeno's Paradox a credited/valid source to use to prove something such as the everlasting gobstopper, from Willy Wonka, is physically impossible? Thanks very much.
I notice you have posted this question several times. No one seems to want to take your question.
You can find a list of science mistakes in current movies at

I am not familiar enough with the Willy Wonka movie to which you refer, although I tried to sit through it once, so I can't help you with that one.
Hello! To find a modern-day movie with physics mistakes, you can start by analyzing films that involve scientific themes or special effects. Some popular choices include movies like Interstellar, The Matrix, or Marvel superhero movies. Once you have selected a film, you can watch it and identify at least three physics mistakes. Some common mistakes in movies include ignoring the laws of gravity, misrepresenting time dilation, or misinterpreting the principles of motion.
To prove these mistakes, gather information about the specific physics concept being misrepresented in the movie. Compare the movie's portrayal to the actual scientific principles and theories. You can refer to reputable sources such as physics textbooks, scientific journals, or consult with experts in the field to ensure the accuracy of your claims. Point out the discrepancies and explain why they are considered mistakes.
Now, regarding Zeno's Paradox, it is a thought experiment that raises philosophical questions about motion. It is not a valid source to prove something physically impossible, such as the everlasting gobstopper from Willy Wonka. Zeno's Paradox explores the concept that motion can be subdivided into infinitely small intervals, questioning whether something can ever truly reach its destination. However, it does not directly relate to the physical properties or feasibility of objects like the everlasting gobstopper.
When discussing the physical impossibility of the everlasting gobstopper, it would be more appropriate to focus on its fictional nature, the violation of known physical laws, and the impossibility of creating a truly everlasting object. Using concepts from physics, such as the conservation of energy or thermodynamics, you can argue that the idea of an everlasting gobstopper goes against established scientific principles.
Remember to support your arguments with credible sources and scientific evidence to strengthen your points.
