1. Introduction of movie, Despicable Me and brief synopsis of story.
2. The film is set in world with similar physics to ours but re-imagined with exaggerated effects and animation.
3. Intro of hypotheses and main points.
II. Gravity has a different effect on different objects.
1. Gru (main character) jumps 20 feet in the air when first attempting to break into Vector's fortress.
2. Vector is electrocuted and stays suspended airborne for 5 seconds.
3. Minions defy gravity entirely due to a potion.
III. Exaggerated reactions to different forces.
1. Chubby kid in the beginning of the film launches 200 plus feet in the air from falling on an inflatable pyramid.
2. Gru is thrown and punched backward when breaking into the fortress.
3. Vector isn't completely crushed and killed by the weight of the growing moon.
IV. Modifiable Matter
1. Vector shrinks in-organic objects, toilet and sink.
2. Asian army shrinks organic mammal, the elephant. Proving the gun works on living things.
3. Gru is able to actually shrink the entire moon. Proving the power of the gun.
V. Counter Points
1. The gun shrinks the ship and has power to shrink moon but doesn't shrink Gru or minions when they were hit.
VI. Competing Hypothesis: Though it has special gravity, nothing seems to fall faster or slower than normal gravity.
1. Vector falls at what we can assume terminal speed without accelerating.
2. Gru's ship falls to the ground and decelerates realistically.
VII. Conclusion
Animated films use modified versions of real-world physics for more interesting actions and humorous antics.
