Devlin and Emmerich did "Stargate" in 1994. After "Independence Day" they became Hollywood's golden children. Then they did "Godzilla vs. Ferris Bueller" in 1998 and they were no longer so celebrated. Will Smith's character's friend, Capt. Jimmy Wilder was played by Harry Connick, Jr. who is a genuine rock star and jazz singer. Too bad he didn't have a serenade ready for the wedding ring scene. Adam Baldwin (Major Mitchel, Jayne Cobb) was also in the second Predator movie. He seems to play a lot of very gung ho characters. This movie was initially scheduled to open on Thursday, July 3, 1996. Due to its unprecedented ad campaign and the events of the movie's plot, it opened in some theaters a day earlier. I remember seeing the revised commercials explaining the change. Brent Spiner played Dr. Okun (the nutty doctor at Area 51). He was nominated for a Saturn award for this role, which he won that same year for his other role as Data in "Star Trek: First Contact".

The existence of Area 51 remained classified until 2013, which is why the military couldn't participate in a movie with Area 51 references.

"Deep Impact" (sort of 'Armageddon's more serious sibling) and "Dante's Peak" are fun watches IMO. More old school there's "Earthquake" or "The Towering Inferno". (with the "Area 51" stuff BTW, I _think_ it's one of those situations where the US government hadn't officially acknowledged its existence in 1996, it was an open secret but still technically a secret - the base is real, it's just for testing prototype aircraft etc. Or at least that's what "they" say :). Similarly, the UK government didn't officially acknowledge the existence of MI-6/SIS until about 1994, despite fictional characters like e.g. James Bond and George Smiley working for it for decades previously)

I didn't stop at the timestamp, but you appeared to not register (at least in the edited video here) that they said the smaller "pieces" heading to different cities were over 15 miles across, which puts them in the area of 24-25km. 10:55-11:00 General: "Fire at will" subordinates repeating "fire at will" Verowak: "Where's Will?" (There you go stealing my heart again) 16:52-16:54 "The hero of Canton" Good Eye there! I hadn't actually watched this movie since before I watched the show you're referencing, so I never caught this in the few reactions I've seen to it. You are correct, that is Adam Baldwin. In other reactions before yours, I knew I recognized him, but since I've watched this movie a few times before, I never really noticed. 22:24-22:30 While I appreciate that this President is a combat pilot and believes he belongs in the air, not asking others to risk what he isn't willing to risk. But he did just lose his wife, their daughter just lost her mother. He's risking her losing her father hours after her mother. Odds are exquisitely against him being the 1 more pilot to make the difference in whether or not humanity continues. Outro: First, my reference above about your Hero of Canton reference. While I know you've seen the show, it's a learned habit for me to not name shows in my comments unless it's absolutely necessary, because I don't want to spoil something for someone who is watching the video who hasn't seen the show. Sometimes it comes out awkward, as I think it did here, but I'd rather be awkward here, than accidentally spoil for someone in another situation, because I broke my learned habit. Personally, I hate when a movie tries to shove a lot of comedy into a movie that isn't "a comedy" Yes, you can have comedic moments in serious dramas and serious action based movies, but some movies shove so much comedy in, that it does feel forced, it feels like the movie doesn't know "Am I a comedy? No, I'm a drama! Why are there 73 comedic moments 42 of them that don't fit, all crammed into my 93 minute runtime?" Let's be honest, Verowack. If Boomer (the dog) hadn't made it. You'd be hard pressed to continue the movie, you might even have paused the recording and the movie, and gone to settle your nerves. But even if that were the case, you'd have come back and explained the edit. Then "pushed forward through the rest of the movie filled with a little more anger." (Do you hear Palpatine calling?) I personally think it would have been better for the movie to be set to start July 2nd, 2-3 years from the date of the first showing. Gives more of a "this is about to happen" rather than "The events started this morning, in 2 days all will be decided, but you'll know the outcome in 90 minutes. Subtle detail, but I did take some marketing and psychology and sociology electives in school.

I was always a big fan of the disaster Movie gerne. There are a few that people haven't mentioned here There is the original 1950s War of the Worlds by George Pal. Indeed, one scene in this one where they nuke Houston is ripped off almost word for word from that one. Another George Pal epic is When Worlds Collide, which was an awesome movie based on a novel written in the 1930's but basically is an end of the world epic. Then there are the best Nuclear War movies, The Day After and Threads. Both are horrific and realistic. Another Good Nuke movie is By Dawn's Early Light which was a good HBO movie with many recognizable stars in it. Last but not least is Twilights Last Gleaming which is a good "almost disaster" movie where a renegade general with a cause seizes an ICBM missile silo. I've never seen reactions to most of these, but Nuclear war is a tough subject for most.
