Wait. Don't you mean Mark Hughes, the dead Herbalife guy that still keeps posting about Hollywood events and results? I get so confused with your steady WB/DC negativity claims.

Oh wait. You blew that one too.

We sure aren't weightless when we hit. This says I weigh 230lbs falling from 1,000 feet. Top speed is 174 mph and it takes me 7 seconds to get to my destination.

We are not weightless when we hit.  
Einstein's whole theory of relativity was based on him realizing a falling body and a body in space are exactly the same, and a body standing on earth is the exact same as a body accelerating at 9.8 m/s^2.

Oh no. I understand that. I think I would weigh around 10,000 pounds when I hit using that graph. I would weigh 230 pounds as I was falling. When I hit, however, I would exert the force of about 10k pounds. So, I would not end with a "bang". I would end with a "sploosh". Like the sound a soaked beach towel might make dropped from 50 feet onto cement. Perhaps even "Ker-SPLOOSH". The splooshiest of the splooshes. Ker-SPLAT might be when I hit from 500 feet. But there is a vast difference between Ker-SPLAT and Ker-SPLOOSH. "Splat" suggest bone matter. Some crispy crunch left. Sploosh suggest bone is pulverized.

You would weigh zero while you were falling.  Weight is whats measured on a scale-if you stood on a scale while falling, you would weigh zero.

[kav]

When a spacecraft is orbiting, it is in free fall-it is falling around the earth-and the astronauts weigh zero.   If you had a platform the same height as the spacecraft and stood on it, you would weigh your normal amount minus a tiny fraction.

I would still have a weight of 230lbs. The scale and I would be falling at the same rate of speed. The 230 pounds is what will be propelling me to the ground. If I were truly weightless I'd get blown away.

If you are falling and the scale is falling you would not press down on it. Trust me on this. I got A's in both semesters of physics.

If you're still discussing suspension of disbelief, this reminds me of the Oscar winning movie, Gravity, when Clooney's character falls towards Earth due to its gravity and violates Newton's Laws of Physics in the process. Grabbing the parachute should have stopped Clooney's momentum. And if Clooney was close enough to Earth to get "sucked away" by gravity, then Earth's gravity would have caused the entire orbiting structure to fall to Earth. After that scene, I lost my suspension of disbelief and the rest of the movie was BS to me.

Yes. I get that. That's why I said we would be both falling at the same rate so I couldn't apply pressure on a scale. How many semesters of reading comprehension did you get A's in?

Man, probably shouldn’t have seen that in IMAX. I don’t easily get motion sick but the constant spinning  on that big screen wasn’t enjoyable.

Christ that's bad

227 Cinema screenings attended by a total of 913 people.

Word of mouth I guess.

People seem to be happy to wait until streaming prices drop or even shown for free with your package.

I wonder if WW84 will be offered to other platforms to gain more viewers?

$10,000 over 29 days.......
