Too late!

"2001:A Space Odyssey" got it right. After that, the IQ of the mainstream movie audience couldn't fathom an exciting space battle without the accompaning explosions that normally transpire in atmospheric conditions!

Besides, what good is it to have Bruce Willis nuke an asteroid if all you get is a blinding flash of light?

Face it...we like the sound of things blowing up!

By the way, in "The Wizard of Oz", Dorothy's hair is in different lengths throughout the movie...either no one figured out that her hair would grow during the long shoot, or there were strip mall salons along the yellow brick road!
