The Core is my favorite movie.@@Roseneck12

-10/10 I feel robbed having watched this sinful scene. The rest of The Core is no better. A movie heavily dependent on science get's exactly none of it right.

LOL I KNOW

I like that the sectional shown repeatedly shows all the friggin airports around and they just ignore them for the freeway…

@@davidkamerath7749 RIGHT THEY WERE COMING FROM THE WATER LIKE BEST OPTION IS DEF 07'S OR 06'S OF KLAX NOT THE FUCKING RIVER

or ontario, or ANYTHING but the river

​@@davidkamerath7749 Shuttle needed a special 15,000' runway to land on. Longest at LAX is 11,000'. Not that it makes the canal landing more realistic, but it at least tells you why the airports weren't considered.

i'm dead ☠

That would have taken a massive crane to lift out of there

@@aucoinroland9072 He said fly over, not land. The stadium is too small to make for a runway, so it would've just crashed otherwise, killing everyone there. Also, *would have taken. Sorry.

Must be a real stinker.

@@dorbie It's a Science FICTION movie, if you accept that its FICTION it's ok, certainly not the worst I've seen

@@davidorf3921 I like science in my science fiction to be grounded in reality, that's the point of it. Otherwise it's just fantasy fiction, which is OK, but sci-fi as a genre exists and is popular because of its futurism and potential plausibility. Clearly we have different standards. The real problem with his kind of Hollywood garbage is it starts with a director saying "I want the Space Shuttle to crash land in downtown LA." and works back from there. So you get a load of implausible fantastic nonsense to get to that point, and the more you know the more BS it is. Yes the rest of the movie is spectacularly worse, but a turd in a cesspool is still a turd. For you this swill might be entertaining, for me it's not & calling it science fiction doesn't excuse it, it just insults real science fiction.

@@dorbiei remember the waves of NASA based science fiction movies that we got for a while ten years ago. It was very boring to me. The Expanse was the series to get me back into it, since it was the most realistic thing around without being all “we could build it today if we wanted”. This movie, the Core, has a train made in a special heat-absorbing metal that can go down to the center of the Earth, it’s not the best movie, but it had some cool ideas and designs.

@@dorbie Can you not just sit there and enjoy the spectacle of a movie about a made up scenario? I mean, it is a sci-fi movie. They do not need to be realistic, in the slightest. Sure, its cool if there is some real science behind it but if not, who cares?

It’s funny how i was doing some stunts on the LS canals earlier using a Mallard plane

I was waiting for someone to mention that

But first, he must Journey to the Center of the Earth on a Fantastic Voyage. ... ... ...I can dig it. Ba Dum, Tish.

@@dmadd4643Well you don’t know, what we can see, why don’t you…

You do realize this isn’t a Hollywood thing, right? This type of quick response is clearly common during emergency airliner landings. Whenever a plane performs an emergency landing, firefighters and/or police/soldiers are always arriving right when the plane stops.

🤣

Nah, NASA has enough budget to pay for the Deluxe Express package.

That wasn't the fire department showing up. That's just the normal sound of the area

LOL 😂

I had the same thought 🤣🤣🤣

Sir you can't park there

I actually watched the space shuttle being towed by a Toyota pickup down exposition Blvd. Probably stalled in traffic?

damm throughout my 20 years spent at NASA I never knew the shuttle had a navigator. 😂😂

@@sidv4615 You should if you worked at NASA, their console is two rows down from the flight director next to guidance.

Wasn’t the shuttle crewed by civilians?

@@damienkramer yeppp. They were either ex-military or had always been civilians. But maybe in the movie it was a military mission

@@sidv4615 maybe, but I’m still not sure why they didn’t even mention an attempt at landing at LAX since a flight path that takes them from the coast over dodgers station (stadium) would place them not far from LAX

The shuttle glided so poorly that the test vehicle used to mimic it was a gulfstream 2 jet with the rear landing gear permanently deployed and the engines put in reverse!

how bad is it compared to the F-4 phantom

That's why Naval Aviators always made the best shuttle pilots ;)

@@AntonDVasiliev-ss1ie Should be way worse. The phantom had a glide ratio of 3:1. So for every 3 feet forward you go 1 feet down. The shuttle? It depends on the speed. While hypersonic it was 1:1, in supersonic flight (about 100k feet up) it was 2:1, and subsonic it is 4.5:1 So about 50% worse, than the F-4 phantom. It is not without reason, that all pilots had a firm belief, that a box in which the space shuttle could be placed into had a better glide ratio than the shuttle itself.

The story I got is the shuttle flew like a cow, upon reentry it flew like a drunken cow

The movie assumes the Endeavour was set to land at Edwards AFB, not KSC. Edwards itself is just outside of Los Angeles (near Palmdale/Lancaster) What it would have done is give the automatic navigation a false bias, pointing the craft at the wrong angle when doing its deceleration burn. Change the angle of the burn, you change the flight path. And since the burn takes place on the other side of the planet, it doesn't take more than a foot or two of delta-V to get the path to shift from Edwards to Los Angeles.

Ackchyually 🤓

Just like watching the "Mighty Mo" drift in Battleship... Complete BS, but oh, so much fun to watch...

it was on the ground in this scene however. might nit be able to fully retract but it should be able to collapse in under the weight of the shuttle if whatever locks the gear is unlocked

@@randomstuff-cu4of if you look at the final scene it was standing with landing gear fully extended again, so it would've had to retract then redeploy for the 'science' to be accurate

@@randomstuff-cu4of I don't think it was possible to unlock the gear from the cockpit.

Fun fact, this is also entirely bullshit. They were retractable, just not in flight. The shuttle was rated for 100 flights. The landing gear was indeed retracted each time, obviously. The main deployment method is hydraulic. One cylinder to release the latch, another to push them down. No way to unlock it in flight. Should they lose hydraulic the gear also had a pyrotechnic charge to blow the latch and gravity used to pull them down. To stow them, it requires additional steps. Namely, releasing the booster spring. Which cannot be done from the cabin. This scene is pure crap. Especially when we see the shuttle with the gear extended at the end. A proper landing would be set it up over the ocean and the crew to all bail out. A landing like this would never be attempted.

@@skylerjr2648 While there is a brief shot showing them traveling east over the ocean, a few cuts later they are traveling south, flying at low altitude over the stadium. This doesn't really make sense, but whatever. At some point before the stadium show, an ocean landing became impossible. Had the production picked a non costal city, it would have been impossible even outside continuity errors. Clearly the point of the scene is that an ocean ditching wasn't possible, which leaves them with this, or a crash. Bailing out 5-6 of the 7 crew is still something I'd have done, but there was no autopilot. This was the pilots only hope.

A new fly over

Well he’s probably fucked from the hypergolic fuel that shuttle uses for RCS.

@@RappinPicard well... it's only cancer in a few decades time right?? nothing wrong with getting to live the high life meanwhile....

More like within hours because the RCS system uses MMH and NTO and it’s really toxic just in general. Not in a “you’ll get cancer in 20 years,” but like “you will need to go to the hospital right away.”

"oh and my co-workers left me for dead, so I quit" Seriously, they did ditch him to save themselves. I would yell at them, then quit, if I was in his place.

Yeah, some films, like this and 2012, are just good escapes no matter the BS depicted.

​@@k.chriscaldwell4141 being an escape movie is why it did not land at LAX, diversion to a long runway is no where near as fun as the car chase river in LA.

Oh its a line I use quite often whenever I fly, LOL

I think it was already "kind of crashed"!?!

When "hydroplaning at 300 knots" is your current best option you just might

Maybe twice that speed

Especially since the venting hydrazine probably would have killed him a few seconds later.

@@cmalberts true but remember this is a Hollywood bs movie where the land of lies happens on a set if that were me on that scaffolding I would have many skid marks in my undies plus a major heart attack in real life to worry about some chemical I would have be already toast lol

That’s actually addressed at 2:34 in the video.

To bad the Endevor has to be in that commie controlled shithole.

The sonic booms would have occurred at a far higher altitude than shown when over the stadium.

The Core. It's a disaster movie. Wonderfully cheezy😊

Is the gear an actual one time deploy or do you just mean on the ground

@@nefarioulyte9996 I mean per flight. The refurbishment team were the only ones who could put the gear back in the fuselage I believe. The wear and tear on these machines is insane.

You say that as if it.. actually happened?

Putting aside the absurd science in this movie (which I do enjoy), this scene in particular is my favourite.

Bruce Greenwood. Excellent actor.

@@SilverSpoon_ at least the Fast franchise KNOWS it's silly, and doesn't try to take itself seriously.

Whoaaa. So you mean to say that a movie about a group of people using a giant drill to dig into the earth’s core and launch nukes into it is unrealistic? I’m shocked.
