I. Intro
a. Action and Reaction: Newtons Third Law
b. All forces occur in pairs, where a force is applied a force applies back.
II.
a. Dragon Ball Z (cartoon)
b. Characters all weigh below 200lbs, have the strength to move mountains, but when one character is considered stronger than the other, the other character can not move him or hit hard enough to provoke a reaction.
III.
a. Hancock (film)
b. Will Smith, a superhero, is hit by a large speeding vehicle and remains unmoved and unscathed, as if he himself weighed more than the vehicles and his feet on the ground pushed him in place as hard.
IV.
a. Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
b. Troll swings down on Aragon with a giant machete, and Aragon blocks it instantly, as if, for a split second, he had the strength and mass of a troll.
V. Conclusion
*Question to Garcia: Since two of these are superhero films, do we have to remain in the mindset that, as superheroes, they SHOULD be able to compensate with strength? I am confused on that one video concerning the soccer mom movie you showed us, and whether or not the characters lack of reaction are allowable through suspension of disbelief.
