re: #433 Dr Lizardo

LOL. It’s still a fun movie, for me at least. I went and saw it with one of my students at our local theater. She commented, “Only you, an American, could sit here eating popcorn and drinking RC Cola while billions of people are being wiped out horribly.”

I said, “Damned straight. God bless America”, with a big grin. She was ribbing me of course, and we both knew it.

I saw that with my brother and niece over Christmas on video. The science and how they portrayed it failed to activate my Suspension of Disbelief given what they put on the screen. I (and not my brother the geologist) was constantly saying “It doesn’t work that way…” and my niece was chiding us with “movie killers!” when we blasted to really crappy science, economics, and everything else in that picture.

I actually hold it as a good candidate for “Worst Science Portrayal in a Movie” ever.
