    The Worst Film Ever

    VeteranLight

    I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

    I'm neither an engineer or a gear-head. But I enjoy the Dream Car side of How It's Made shows. My single objection to these shows is the background music, it is awful. How much heavy metal do the producers need to use to get the point across? Apparently there can never be enough. Here is an interesting show about some really astonishing and beautifully designed and built modern super-cars and the whole show is overlain with the same miserable droning of buzz guitars and pounding drums. The real live sounds of the shops would be far better than that stuff. I guess the producers think they have to appeal to a certain demographic of which I am not a part. At best I can get through two episodes then I can't stand it anymore. There is so much more and better music out there for background. There is the world of Jazz, New Age, Techno, Easy Listening, and even Classical. If the producer won't change it lower way down and maybe use some real shop sounds. Great show. I'll watch with ear plugs in.

    The most annoying thing about this program is using incorrect units on measurements. I've just finished watching a "DREAM CARS" about building a Rolls Royce auto and this was done twice. First of all the narrator describes about the pressure applied to produce a laminate as a certain number of pounds. The problem is that a pound is a unit of force. Pressure is force per unit area, P=F/A. The correct unit should be pounds per square inch, usually abbreviated as psi, in the Imperial system of measurement, which is what's commonly used in the USA. In the metric system the proper unit would be newtons per square meter, which is called a Pascal. In the same episode he describes the torque applied to tighten a bolt as so many foot-pounds. This is also incorrect. In the imperial system of measurement work is measured in ft-lbs, while torque is measured in pound-feet, However, to calculate work, it's assumed the two quantities are in the same direction, while calculating torque, the force and distance are perpendicular. The reverse order indicates this difference and gives each quantity its own unique unit. A more detailed explanation is given in the next paragraph.These two quantities seem to be identical, because 4x3 =3x4 etc. In simple arithmetic this would be true. Multiplication is considered to be a "commutative" process. However, in mathematics, there are two types of multiplication, a "cross product", symbolized by an X, as in A X B and a "dot product" symbolized by, appropriately, by a dot, as in A-B The difference is that the dot product is what is used in normal arithmetic, while a cross product is not commutative, A X B DOES NOT EQUAL B X A. To calculate work, force multiplied by distance, the force and the distance are assumed to be in the same direction. To calculate torque, T = F x D, the force is applied is assumed to be perpendicular direction of movement. By using the unit lb-ft, as apposed to ft-lb, indicates the perpendicular relationship between force and distance and avoids confusion. While to 99.99..% of viewers this does not matter, it is important. In the USA this program is aired on the Science Channel. As such I think it behooves them and the "How It's Made" narrative editors to be as accurate and truthful. Maybe have scientists check the narration be fore the episode is produced. Here in the USA, People bemoan the fact that a lot of our youth is not science and math literate. There is a shortage of American scientists and engineers. It is perhaps indicative of this that these programs are ignorant in many areas.

    So mad at Science Channel​ How It's Made​ Dream Cars... so far season 3 is nothing but combinations of season 1 and season 2 episodes... Its such that's b*******...Season 3 Episode 1 "Spy cars" is Bentley Continental GT Speed (Season 1, Episode 10) and Aston Martin Vanquish (Season 2, Episode 16)Season 3 Episode 2 "American Muscle" is Superformance GT40 (Season 2, Episode 14) and Chevrolet Corvette Stingray (Season 2, Episode 8) With so many amazing cars in the world, there is absolutely no reason to mash episodes together from only two seasons of cars... ~_~To meet the requirements for submitting the review, here is what I said again... So mad at Science Channel​ How It's Made​ Dream Cars... so far season 3 is nothing but combinations of season 1 and season 2 episodes... Its such that's b*******...Season 3 Episode 1 "Spy cars" is Bentley Continental GT Speed (Season 1, Episode 10) and Aston Martin Vanquish (Season 2, Episode 16)Season 3 Episode 2 "American Muscle" is Superformance GT40 (Season 2, Episode 14) and Chevrolet Corvette Stingray (Season 2, Episode 8) With so many amazing cars in the world, there is absolutely no reason to mash episodes together from only two seasons of cars... ~_~

    Who writes this drivel...a 12-year old intern? Does anyone actually know ANYTHING about cars? Is there no proofreader assigned to the script, or does that individual also lack any automotive knowledge? Aside from insipid sing-song dialog that insults my intelligence minute- to-minute, I can generally pick out at least 15-20 factual errors in every episode, from mismatched clips/narration, to outright incorrect terminology. The only way to watch this show is with the audio muted...just enjoy watching the video and, at the end, you will know more about the dream car's production than the writers.
