It’s on TV right now, and I watch the damm thing every chance I get. It’s a guilty pleasure - an out and out disaster movie of the type that mostly went out of style in the 70’s. With most loud, effects driven movies being of the car chase/car crash/terrorist baddies/science run amok types, I kinda like a movie where it’s all bout mamma nature reminding folks that, yes, she *is* the biggest bitch on the block.

Besides, it’s just more comforting watching a movie that has *no* connection the the current screwed up state of the world.
