Our favourite being; “That’s my wife, crone!”
Is it the point right after where Clooney’s character has his buddy-buddy moment with the RV owner and they toast each other?
I suppose we must mention Jurassic Park II and that boat full of dead people.
Nitpick: It was the West Side.
Pick any street in the greater New York area, really and the WTF still stands.
99.9% of the depictions of radiation, rad health physics, or nuclear energy in film are wrong, messed up, or just plain insane.
For example, the scene in Silkwood where Cher’s character is being scrubbed with wire brushes to remove the contamination.
The problem with radioactive contamination on people isn’t so much the exposure, but the possibility that the external contamination will become internal, as the skin flakes off through the normal processes. So - if the purpose of decontaminating a person is to prevent internal contamination, why in the name of all that is holy would you deliberately break the skin, to drive the contaminants into the blood stream?
It’s so much more effective to wrap the contaminated skin with plastic, let it sweat for 8-10 hours, and that will slough off the dead layer of skin without risking having the shit getting inside the person.
Oh, and it has the benefit of being almost as uncomfortable, too. (And once the dead layer of skin is off - as painful, too.)
ETA: Oh, yeah, and radioactive material is not universally fluorescent green, dammit!
