90s disaster movies were absolute schlock
Dante’s peak and volcano
armageddon by a mile. deep impact is so boring.
>>220065632half of these don't match at all
>>220065726Lol yea, it's a very comprehensive list but if two movies are one year apart they shouldn't be considered.
>>220065780a couple months apart at most. they make these to pull viewership from the other movie>>220065600 like these that came out 2 months apart
I never liked the genre. I went with my mum to see Twister and Volcano, and even at my young age I knew they were absolute fucking trash.
I can recognize that Deep Impact is the better movie but Armageddon is just so fucking entertaining, funny, epic, and manages to have genuine feels throughout. That god damn soundtrackThe summer i saw it i also watched The Rock and Face/Off What a time to be alive
>>220065600I watched Illusionist and holy shit it sucked hard. Prestige wins all the way.
>>220065984Deep Impact is not better though. These movies are made purely for entertainment, and in that category, Armageddon wins hands down. There's a reason no one really talks about Deep Impact. It's boring, stuffy, slow and not all that entertaining.
>>220065899My grandparents took me to see Twister in theaters when I was 9. I was so hyped for the movie. I loved it because the villain is nature, its like the opposite of everything I have been told previously by movies.
>>220065984>genuine feels throughout>the scene where he sends AJ character back up the elevator with the patch then says goodbye to his daughteri hold back tears everytime
>>220066120>I loved it because the villain is natureFor me that's the problem. Nature is not villainous or heroic or anything other than indifferent nature. But Hollywood convention demands a villain to be defeated, and that leads us into some very silly stories.
