That you can hear explosions and laserguns in space.
It's the worst because the film-makers can't even plead ignorance - everybody knows about this.
I don't mind it because watch any sci-fi film and mute it when it is in space. have you gone and done that well as you may have noticed it is stupid and makes the film more boring.
Anybody ever see the Wing Commander movie? In this movie, the Captain actually tells his crew to stop loudly celebrating their recent victory because the Kilrathi might 'hear' them. Of course, that movie also has starfighters dropping off the runway slightly when they launch.
OT: Not a movie, but there's this one episode of the TV show Fringe where some mad scientist injects some hooker with a drug that causes her to become pregnant, carry a child to full term in a matter of a few hours, only to have it grow so rapidly that the fetus bursts out of her stomach, killing her, and dies of old age all in one night.
The bad science comes in with the fact that, other than having the fastest pregnancy evar, she's perfectly healthy during the whole scene. She'd kind of have to be to be shrieking in torture the way she does, I guess.
Okay, seriously? I guess they figure we forgot about the conservation of mass, because if any woman had a child inside her grow to full term and beyond in a matter of hours, she would be dead of dehydration and having zero blood sugar long before the kid had a chance to play chest burster. You try losing seven pounds of water in an hour and see how it makes YOU feel.
This totally turned me off this show. For a show about fringe science the writers apparently don't really understand anything about science, which means the moral of the show is probably that "SCIENCZ IZ BAD! DER HER!" and nothing else.
