Depends if you go with the original idea, or the battery idea designed by Hollywood execs who didn't think the audiences would understand.

... thus proving that Hollywood execs and the people they make their changes for are only good for batteries*, but I digress.

* For legal reasons, this is a joke. I have to say this because some Hollywood execs have more lawyers than braincells**.

** For all the same reasons, this is also a joke.

Sure, having something Thermodynamically accurate instead of just acting like humans created heat out of nothing (or out of food that was unproduceable from some source that couldn't give machine energy) would have made me more satisfied with the movie.

But would I have paid more for it?
