The Day After Tomorrow

[Nanner]

Oh, hell. I loved it. But I'm a sucker for a disaster flick. If I can sit there and watch special effects destroy L.A. and NYC, I can have fun. :D

Plus, it has Dennis Quaid. I'd watch him do anything. :love2:

Whatcha got here is your basic disaster flick, with lame personal stories going on while you're waiting for the cool effects.

And they are cool. I started feeling like I was freezing, and I know it wasn't the air conditioning!!!

Sort of a qualified :thumbsup: from me. Lame personal stories and dialog to move those stories along, but terrific in the action/getting me involved department.

this is a movie i HAVE to see!!

[BPBlueSox]

Biggest sham ever.

[duckboy]

I'm seeing this Saturday night. Even if it sucks, it will suck better on the big screen.

[Baseball Guru]

I agree with Nan... At times the story got a little slow but I just LOVED the special effects and the visuals....

Overall I would say I really enjoyed it....

I go to a movie to be entertained and I got my monies worth as I was entertained.....


Dan, why do you think it was a sham?

[BPBlueSox]

Because it is so unbelievably unrealistic. That's why.

I'm not saying it wouldn't be entertaining as a movie, though.

[awefullspellare]

ill see it in a few weeks

[BPBlueSox]

By the way, the problem I have such a problem with it being so unrealistic is because idiot liberals like Al Gore are telling people to see the movie because something like that could really happen.

So first Al Gore invented the internet...and now he's a climatologist? Wow. The guy ceases to amaze me.

I love cynics!

Will certainly NOT go see it.

[Dark_Angel]

I'd love to go see that movie. It looks awesome.

[duckboy]

The special effects made that movie. They story was OK. It only got laughable when they got preachy on the environment. "If only we didn't burn so much fossil fuels..."

[645]

What amazes me is how many people make a big deal out of it from every angle.

It's Bad acting, It had no story, Stop useing those fossil fuels becouse this is going to happen. It's amazing how offen you here it.

Yes, It did have Lame personal stories but who cures. It's a disaster flick. You should love them becouse they destroy things in the most unbeliveable ways.

All you should expect from it is to go WOW a few times and mybe a few laughs and you could possable not laugh there behinds off on the tought of Americans illegaly crossing the Mexican border in mass numbers.

So who cure if it was bad done becouse in a movie like this good acting would be only a bonus.

And all you should cure is that they did the Best disaster sence "The Core"

[Nanner]

I saw it again!!! :clap:

Friends of mine were thinking of going, and I thought, "Hmmmm. I could see this again!" So I went a second time, and liked it even more! :rock:

On second viewing, I'm thinking the personal stories weren't as lame as alot of bad disaster flicks I've seen, (I'm putting this in my category of good disaster flicks) and the script certainly wasn't as bad as some I've seen.

Good acting from all...... the young kids were especially terrific. Jake Gyllenhaal was particularly effective.

:thumbsup:

[645]

You say it better the secound time.

I guess I'll have to see it again then.

Gore pretty much ceased to amaze me when he was a Tennessee senator. Not too many senators amaze me, come to think of it.

Anyway, I'm not a movie person, really don't dig the theater experience, just bugs the holy poop out of me the way people behave these days ... So I wasn't necessarily planning to see this one anyway ... But I've had two people tell me they thought some of the special effects were second rate :notme: I'll probably eventually watch it when it has its small screen debut a couple of years from now.

But it's the kind of movie you really should see on a big screen. :D Although I'm totally with you on the way audiences behave these days. I've gotten so used to special screenings...... through my union I joined a film society, where all year (every two weeks), we see private screenings (only writers and actors). It's very quiet, no one talks, people actually stay and watch the credits, the doors are closed when the movie starts and no one gets in, so there's no one climbing over you once the movie's started. I've been spoiled. I swear......... there was so much talking during the movie on Monday I thought I was going to scream. :banghead

[rockin500]

i may or may not catch it. I'd like my disaster movies to have some shred of credibility. i mean, at least a shred. this seems like it has not even a smidgen.

maybe thats the scientist in me. lol

[BPBlueSox]

I saw this movie on Friday. Laughed my ass off through the whole thing. I love the three huge hurricanes that sit over the northern hemisphere. Now that is classic. :hmm:
