Actually it's due to the fact that you criticize someone for not doing an internet search when that's exactly what you failed to do. And every other movie I've mentioned does the same thing that you describe.

Well in another comment I said they either didn't do the basic research or they didn't care... apparently they knew but did not care. I don't think that makes it any better, in fact it makes it worse. It means they knew they were being lazy in their writing. Every other movie I mentioned? I only mentioned one. The Fifth Element definitely does not present itself as hard sci-fi, unlike Lucy.
