Most scientifically inaccurate movies.
My observations:
1. The list loses credibility right out of the gate due to the omission of An Inconvenient Truth.
2. Starship Troopers? Really? This one seems to be filler because they didn't want to take a shot at a bigger named film and piss people off. Their reasoning about the bugs aiming an asteroid that well is beyond ridiculous. Nowhere in the film is it mentioned that the attack was a precision hit. How about they got lucky? Stupid inclusion. A complete cop out when you consider they could've added a couple of movies featuring muppets and Jedis.
3. "This movie is to climate science as Frankenstein is to heart transplant surgery." - Easy top 10 candidate for best quotes ever.
4. The last one contains what I assume is a massive spoiler as I haven't seen the new Indy yet.
