Physics in the movies

If you're interested in a brief look at science in the movies, check out this article, "Hollywood Physics," archived at physicsworld.com.

While the article is not the most in-depth look at science in films, it does give a basic overview, starting with the introduction of science in movies with 1902's Le voyage dans la lune (Voyage to the Moon). What's also great about the article is the short list of links at the end, pointing to a few sites that talk serious scifi science. Very cool stuff there.
