This Supercut Reveals Why Math Needs a Hollywood Makeover
- lutusp 14y agoThe article is of course right, which is why we should celebrate the opposite cases -- plotlines in which mathematics seems a natural part of the story: http://www.subzin.com/quotes/Twilight/I+don%27t+want+to+know%0D%0A+what+the+square+root+of+pi+is http://www.subzin.com/quotes/Twilight/I+don%27t+want+to+know.... In this example (Twilight (2008)), Robert Pattinson's character rattles off a bunch of hypothetical answers to unasked questions including "1.77245", to which Kristen Stewart instantly replies, "I don't want to know what the square root of pi is." Obviously a rare occurrence in American filmmaking.
