    No, that knife isn’t made of atoms, that knife is made of pure solid quarks. That’s why it can cut atomic nuclei.

      No I don’t get it. But I would like to. Is this one of those scenarios where three physicists walk into a bar, each one tells a joke but none of it are funny so no one gets it?

        The moment I wrote it, I was hearing it in the voice of Benny Safdie in his first scene as weirdo Edward Teller, in “Oppenheimer”.

              Oppenheimer is a mainstream movie though. It’s not that geeky.

                It’s a movie about physics, with characters like Niels Bohr featured prominently, which just so happened to be made for general audiences and it was a hit, by a director whose other historical film was about Dunkirk.

                Before these movies were made, the subjects were pretty much obscure to the mainstream. Films like these are regarded as risky for large studios, and it’s widely acknowledged that Christopher Nolan is on the very short list of directors with the blessing to do absolutely whatever they want at large studio scale and budget and that is not part of a franchise. And by “very short list” I mean people like Stanley Kubrick.

                The “mainstream” label on Oppenheimer is incidental, after the fact.

                  I would watch an edit of the movie that only featured the physics part of it. It’s the boring part I don’t have time for

              Subject matter doesn’t appeal to me much, and I’m also not very fond of the lead actor (no particular reason, he’s a great actor) If it serves as consolation I only watched like 15min of barbie, either
