well it opened today...just got back from seeing it...its amazing how a movie with such work put into it ended up being not thought out even close to as much as it should. i wanna start off by saying i did thoroughly enjoy this movie. but what i meant by saying it needed to be thought out better was this: the entire movie is about a storm...its about a storm that will throw the earth into another ice age...but yet in the midst of this storm there are people on cell phones, radios, and television ::), then...the part that really made me laugh...this dude (dennis quaid) wants to get in his car and drive to new york after everything has frozen over! yes he can drive over the top of the snow...yes its a big truck so he can get over all the bodies on the snow...but did he ever think about this..............where in the hell is he gonna get gas?
other than those few little tidbits i really did enjoy the movie...the effects were amazing. it is atleast worth seeing.
-
yea it seems like a cool popcorn flick
-
I'm goin to see this in a few hours and I hope its as good as I think its gonna be.
I've read some positive, negative, and mixed reviews about this movie. I just hope the "disaster" sequences are plentiful, because I could give a shit less about the characters...I wanna see tornados, floods, and another ice age damnit!
-
ya man just saw da movie i made another thread LMFAO but i spelled the name rong anyways this movie is a good movie but i do agree that the endin didnt match the movie like it didnt flow rite
-
this movie looks so stupid. watching a storm hit a major city for 2 hours. wow too much fun for one night.
ill save my 8 bucks and wait for it to come out on dvd
-
This movie was very good IMO. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, although I agree the ending was a lil querky. One minute in Mexico, theres a huge blizzard goin on...then its all sunny and shit at the end.
My official rating: 8.5/10

lmao the blizzard wasnt in mexico...the blizzard was in the top half of north america...that would be why they were trying to evacuate everyone into mexico or atleast below that line he drew on the map.

I wasn't talking about the main storm. If you woulda paid attention to the movie you would have seen "U.S. Refugee Camp in Mexico"...it was nighttime and it was snowing like crazy.
Oh, and another thing...the "blizzard" wasn't just in the top half of north america either. The storm completely covered north america, however:
SPOLIERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Upper North America is the only part that gets frozen over into the new ice age because the eye of the storm (where the toposphere or w/e came down and froze everything) was concentrated in Northern North America.

wow i swear...you two are the dumbest fucks on this forum.
do you guys live in a 3rd world country or something? cause where i live there are these places where you can rent dvds for $2.00 and keep for 5 days. then you have to return them, or else you pay a late fee. think its called "blockbuster"
some people......

This movie preys on a liberal mind. See, to even appreciate this movie, you have to believe that Big Business is fucking up the world so bad, that this shit is all just days away. Al Gore is going around promoting the movie, like it's a glimpse into the future or some shit.
This shit will NEVER happen, it's bullshit by the liberals that run hollywood, this is the kind of shit they think is going to occur in the near fucking future. It makes them feel good inside that they can make a movie with a 'message' like this, lol.
The whole movie is based on the premise that businesses and evil car owners are killing the ozone layer, forcing 'global warming' which will melt the ice caps. In the movie, the melting ice caps apparently melt at once, because they portray a giant tidal wave hitting the U.S., like the Ice caps just all said "Fuck It" at 1 time and decided to melt spontaneously, creating a huge wave that crushes New York. In the movie, nobody knows a 300 foot wave is coming; no warnings, no... nobody sees it coming, the city just gets pounded by it with no news coverage, etc... LOL
Typical Liberal wacko shit, there's a 1975 Newsweek with "GLOBAL COOLING!!!" As the coverstory. Yeah; 29 years ago, all the Liberals were swearing up and down that the earth was cooling much too rapidly.

lol@Americans hopping the Mexican border ;D and the Mexican government opening up the borders only after having their debts forgiven ;D classic.
-
Who's saying anything about big business and liberals???
I went to see the movie for one reason: A giant storm ripping the world apart with all the amazing special effects. I could care less about global warming, another ice age, etc...the movie was awesome.
-
I'm just telling you the reason behind the movie being made. I can't get over that, so I'm not watching the motherfucker. The 1 star rating all the reviewers gave it helps that decision, lol.
-
lol Trauma watch the movie first the storms are not entirely caused by melting glaciers Mr. Knowitall :D
Doesn't global warming cause global cooling ??? ;D
Your mistaken if you think your smarter than executives/directors that put down 100 million dollars to make this movie...watch the movie and you'll see why NY was not warned about the tidal wave.
How much meth will $8 buy you anyways ??? ;D
-
i liked it, i was blazed out of my mind and those special effects were sick, like the tornadoes in california,DAMN... the movie was good, acting was average.... its no oscar winner, but deffinately worth a watch

moron, those raters are biased who gave it a 1 star rating, you just feel u fit in with them, fuck that shit, this film was a classic, probably the best natural disaster film i've ever seen. Id give it a 9/10. Man the screenplay was great, the acting was awesome and the direction fit very well. The thing that had me laughin was how all the Americans came down to Mexico to seek refuge, heh they were tearing down the walls and even crossed the river, lmao (what goes around comes around!), that was a dope scene and the ending speech from the president of encouraging. Very good concept, just that the climate can't change all so quickly naturally since it takes years in the process. BUt this was a great flick and I'd give it a 9/10.
