hkellick: Earth Shattering (Earth Shattering)
I saw 2012 this last weekend. It was a baaaad movie. Absolutely awful. The effects were stunning and it WAS kinda cool to watch the earth be destroyed, but the plot had more holes than swiss cheese.

But it got the old creative juices flowing.

I love end of the world movies. They're usually hokey as heck, but they're amusing.

If I were to ever direct such a movie, I'd start it thusly...

Silliness )

And there's, like, a bit of real science in there too! Maybe not a WHOLE lot, but some.

For the record, I don't think anyone's ever studied the affects that an asteroid hitting the earth would have on global warming. But dust traps heat. So I imagine things would get bad much much quicker.


OK, maybe not. But I'm not changing my disaster movie just cause the science says I'm wrong!
