I can do so if the show/movie explicitly tells me something is possible in world (warp drive! teleporters! translators!). I can also do so if the world follows the rules it's laid out for themselves. However, if the show/movie hasn't told me it violates the laws of physics (it's not real, it's the Matrix!) I assume gravity works like it does on earth. When I see terrible special effects that violate the laws either the show has defined or reality has defined then I am pulled out of the show and the drama is lessened. Gravity functioning at the whim of the GM would pull me out of the game in a similar fashion. It'd be like gaming with (a far more benign) Queen of Hearts as DM.</blockquote>
