Ha, good point. But I really enjoy a good flick that doesn't flaunt the laws of physics.

Have a good one.

I think this is a problem for all interpretations of quantum mechanics not just the "many worlds" one. For example the Copenhagan interpretation has collapsing wave functions. Another one (I forget what it's called sorry) has virtual particles zipping forwards and backwards in time most of which cancel out before becoming 'real'.
