jebbypalI think I felt my IQ actually drop during that movie.
Ooooh, papa seismologist that's retired and is now a professional poker player can still feel 1.0 earthquakes in his bones!!!! Oooooh.
Idiot helicopter pilot flies too close to hoover damn.
Really, an entire river boiling? Okay, okay, I know there's like precedent in the old testament and stuff, but that also seems to coincide with when a huge ass meteor/comet flew near the earth. I can't' recall the specifics, but I do recall researching the theory for a religious studies paper in college.
The search and rescue crap? Give me a break. I mean the Fema stuff from the night before was laughable (becuase really, we all believe the head of fema will manually detonate a nuclear bomb because he just cares that much), but that crap? Not even Dean Cain made it bearable.
And the Atlas casino? I have the feelng that both the original and this sequel were conceived as special effects ideas that then had a script written around them. "Oh, I know, something happens to cause the space needle to fall over. Ohhh...and I just dreamt another -- the hoover dam collapses and then, even better, we'll have an atlas casino and outside the globe will fall off of atlas's shoulders"
And the cgi is laughable. Like old star trek laughable. You can tell when they zoom out that they are showing you PLASTIC models in bathtubs.
Arggh..
But cute guy is dead. I won't have to watch on Tuesday unless I decide to get really drunk...which since i only have one bottle of beer in the house is unlikely.
