Is it possible...






Im not sure.. There were many things that
didnt make sense in that movie...

As for the specifics of the laser in question,
I have no idea.

I just remember most of the lines in that flick ;)

My original post on flaws I noticed.. in quote..

wannaburn said:
1- The laser they have is 5MW, from what I know, this power has not yet been
achieved from a single laser... possibly an array though.. not sure.

2- The laser is said to be 600nm, with this in mind, the beam does not
appear orange, or yellow in the least, more of a pink purple.

3- There appears to be no optics in the laser used, yet the divergence
looks outstanding. Watch the scene following the 'test fire' the holes
in the lab, windows, trees, and statue, look to be all the same size.
The hole last shown is the restaurant sign, this one seems to be 2x
the size, so divergence was acknowledged at some point in the script
or maybe because the shot was filmed from further away, they just made it larger...

4- The goggles they wear in the 'test fire' scene are red, if the laser was actually
600nm, there wouldn't be much protection offered.

5- Dont get the lead apron's, unless the laser is emitting x-rays..?? :thinking:

6- The popcorn scene in the end was recently deemed 'busted' in an
episode of mythbusters. The laser being able to pop that much volume
may be possible, but it wouldn't break out the windows etc.

7- popcorn scene, Kent looks up at the beam coming through the window
and striking its target. How Kent would have intact retinas after this would
be a bit of a stretch IMO.

8- Kent's tracking mirror by the looks of it, would have melted under such stress.


Great movie, but Hollywood is Hollywood.
