On Tommy's desk are several bags of movie popcorn and cans of Coke for the students to grab as they come in.

"Easy class today, guys. We're just watching a movie. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean you're not gonna get away without a homework assignment. On Monday, I want you to come to class with one- or more, if you're feeling ambitious- complaint about the science of the movie."

Tommy pops in a DVD of Triassic Gardens, turns off the lights, and sits at his desk as the movie plays.

Homework!

Turn in homework here if you don't wanna wait for Monday's class.

Janet turned in a long, strongly-worded essay written while watching the movie about the concept of cloning, extracting viable DNA from a few rare specimens of creatures preserved in amber, reconstructing DNA properly, and a few extra notes on how amphibian DNA does not automatically produce reptilian characteristics in creatures cloned from it. There might be the occasional diagram of a DNA strand too. And a lot of exclamation points.
