Warning: mad scientists


Ion man who went back in time


Gosh! Aren't we lucky they didn't destroy the Earth, or indeed the entire universe! (Talk about the reset button.) Someone should make a scary SF movie about it, albeit a rather abruptly truncated one.

The definition of a 'mad scientist', as I understand it, is one who does things in the name of gaining knowledge, but doesn't consider (or doesn't care) that there might be negative consequences. Why don't people get as riled up about mad artists or mad businessmen? (I love The Truman Show because it's a movie where the villain is a mad artist who precisely fits that definition.)
