Misrepresentin'

So they're talking about quantum theories on Quirks & Quarks, going on about choices splitting multiple universes, and I suspect they will complete the entire program without mentioning the Trousers of Time.

For shame.

They had a quote from Douglas Adams. And it wasn't even particularly relevant. Just about how big space is. Anyone can talk bout how big space is – though, probably, not in so amusing a way. But multiple universes splitting off every time there're multiple alternative outcomes to a situation is what the Trousers of Time is (are?) all about.

Honestly, the movie doesn't really look particularly relevant either.

Have you read "The Elegant Universe" by Brian Greene? It's a very good intro to string theory book. :)
