Turns out, Neil deGrasse Tyson hates another science-based movie more than “Gravity.” TMZ caught up with the “Cosmos” host and asked him which space movie is the most scientifically inaccurate. After calling the gossip site “the dark energy permeating the vacuum of space wherever you look,” he awarded the title to the original Disney movie “The Black Hole.”
Tyson is known for his obsession with perfection when it comes to space in movies (James Cameron altered the skyscape in “Titanic” at the astrophysicist’s request), and he called the “The Black Hole” “embarrassing” before going on a rant about all the flubs and liberties Disney took in making the 1979 hit.
“They not only got none of the physics right about falling into a black hole, had they gotten it right it would have been a vastly more interesting movie.”

Things are looking up for Neil deGrasse Tyson–way up. As the director of the Hayden Planetarium and the author of several popular books on space, Tyson is already one of the nation’s best-known scientists. And now his already-high profile is set for a big boost with the March 9 launch of “Cosmos: A Space-Time Odyssey,” a new documentary television series that he hosts.
Tyson calls the 13-part series a continuation of “Cosmos: A Personal Voyage,” a 1980 PBS series narrated by Carl Sagan that is acclaimed as one of the most significant science-themed programs in television history.
In anticipation of the new series’ debut, Tyson, 55, sat down with HuffPost Science for a wide-ranging and surprisingly frank interview. What follows is a condensed and edited version of the discussion, which took place in the astrophysicist’s New York City office
