[SFRA-L] On the lighter side...

Given the record of movies and TV of misusing or ignoring the basic  
principles of physics, I would call that a very safe bet.  But hasn't it  been 
said that one should never let the facts get in the way of a good  story?

I see  the steampunk version of THE THREE MUSKETEERS opens Friday. Might be 
fun, even  if it's a hoot. I'm curious as to how they'l explain airships in 
the 17th  Century. One thing I bet they WON'T try to explain is why there 
isn't any  recoil when cannons are fired from those airships, or why it 
doesn't occur to  anybody (from a trailer I saw months ago) to fire them at the 
gas  bags.
