This video felt a bit off. The "wat is AC" stuff I think underestimates your audience a fair bit - and for those who don't yet know what AC is, I think they'd need a longer and more thorough explanation. The science demonstration bits in this video all seem pretty tame. ~and you just don't really go into depths with what scientific accuracies the film had (or didn't have). You mention that it takes a few liberties, but what are these? Are there any scientific inaccuracies? What are they? What impressed you? That's the stuff I'm expecting from SvC - not "look a hotdog gets warm".
@@xNeuker you are entitled to your opinion of the movie, OP is entitled to their opinion of the movie, and I am entitled to my opinion that you are wrong.
So let's just Glos over where Edison lifter a good handful of his ideas for patents....his famous assistant Nicholas Tesla, untill he got fed up at left Edison to make his own success. Tesla was the genius and Edison the manipulative showman.
It isn't quite so simple. Tesla worked for Edison's company but he wasn't his assistant. It is thought that Tesla only met Edison a few times. Edison also had many of his most famous inventions before he ever met Tesla, and there is no evidence he stole anything from Tesla. Quite the opposite, he wasn't interested in Tesla's motor, which is one of the reasons Tesla left.
@@andyhowell9517 how dare you shut down my simplified and incorrect understanding of how Edison and Tesla's working relationship is, and with competent and factual arguments no less!. My ego may be bruised, but my mind is broadened, thank you good sir😉
@@satuduatigaempat8602 I'm not gonna watch a movie for factual historical accuracy....that's like using Private Ryan for a historical essay. But yeah i might check this out,maybe I'll get lucky and it will find its way to a cinema in my Nordic little corner.
@@wiiconsole6756 - You should really study history. Tesla only work for Edison in order to make a special arc light for street lamps, it took him to long that a rival company invented a better and cheaper beat him to the market.

These are so fun, but I hate it seems so infrequent and locked to recent releases. I would LOVE to see a full review of Contact, 2001/2010, Blade Runner, Interstellar, Gravity, and alot more. Right now it's all just waiting for the next big sci-fi release.
AC won but that's for the brutal system of electricity we currently use, where you have massive electricity-generating structures around the country belching planetary global-warming gases to keep the electric economy going. In future, we hopefully will have small local electric-generating facilities (using renewable energy) and for these, DC will be the best electric energy to use. Because guess what? Just about all modern electrical devices (take your computer, for example) want to have DC voltage to run. So currently (pun intended), we have to go through all kinds of twists to get electric power from power generation stations into your computer. Ramp up voltage from generation station to send it over super high-power electrical wires suspended on Huge transmission towers -> substations to bring voltage level down for local transmission over utility poles -> transform it at each house to lower voltage for house current. Then in device, use bridge rectifier with capacitor to turn it into DC. All these transformations waste a lot of energy! In future, hopefully we just use DC from Photovoltaic cells or something like that. Not have these brutal gross pylons straddling the country sending massively-high-voltage electricity all over the place. People have been known to develop disease when living near these monstrous AC transmission towers! So Edison may have been right all along, perhaps not for his time of 19th and 20th centuries, but for 21st century and beyond.
The movie is missing... A LOT. XD They only executed a horse in that movie and decided that the audience don't deserve to know how Edison paid some kids to steal people's pets so he can execute them as well. Perhaps if you tell Edison that you prefer Tesla he will kill your pets. Too soon? But what I didn't liked was how Tesla was turned into a fool who never invented anything but only had "ideas in his head" in this movie...

And DC is not explained whatsoever. Yes it can be extrapolated if you know the matter.... but if you don't you're left in the dark.
EXACTLY
This movie is underrated
this film is shit.
@@xNeuker I mean I liked it.

No its not. It was rubbish.

Watch the movie

kenneth83DK Wow!
The greatest thing Edison invented was the research and development team.
But Edison was the worst, let's just get that out of the way.
@Johnny Dominguez Tesla lit the world,not Edison
@Johnny Dominguez research Nikola Tesla and get educated yourself
Akshay Anand yup
Edward Wright true

I expected the movie to come out in the next half a year and you saying it released 2 years ago?!
How could I missed it that badly? (
Volodymyr Shcherbatenko
It’s not very good.
The original version showed at the Toronto Film Festival 2 years ago, but was not released widely until this new version.
Nice review. I heard about this movie and now I really want to see it. All of the physics regarding electricity are amazing to me.

Looking forward to this film!
I remember it’s U=IR. U stands for voltage
I loved this movie, we watched it for school.
Kept waiting for something sneaky to happen to the clocks in the back of shot in the lab 😂
And where is j,p Morgan, hes a huge influential figure in this story
Benedict dont know about dc, he only knows marvel...
A Movie With Dr Strange & Spiderman vs General Zod & Beast!
Hello Teacher
AC vs Dc vs Marvel
So did AC win in the end?
Guess you'll have to watch the movie to find out!
It is what every national grid uses today, soooo....
Ty plz.
DC vs AC the winner was JP morgan
