    Wait, forget the rest, but are you trying to say the dog died?

    Seriously though, my thinking is exactly like yours. I debated if I should go see it because the special effects looks quite badass, but in the end I won't lend support to it with my money. Besides, Hector and Achilles bring more enjoyment to my life :)

    How d'u do that?! Everywhere i go there's loads of very rude nigerians checking the ticket like 3 times at different points between the pop-corn-and-sweeties-place and the door to the screenroom... and more inside the screen room to show me where to sit (as if i'm blind or something)....

    Ugh, no. The first "Godzilla" (aka Gojira) destroyed part of Tokyo in 1954. 10 years later, the Gojira was fighting with Mosura, a very big worm, also in Japan. Japanese liked disaster movies too. :)

    The last time I went to the movies was around a year ago but IIRC there were no ticket checkers in the actual theater. Must be one of those US<>UK<>EU things.

    I don't even think it's good for entertainment value. I mean seriously, natural disaster movies are so overdone it's not funny. If natural disaster movies were bread, we'd be past blackened toast and well into charcoal ;)

    You're absolutely right about film being a powerful medium. Just think about all the people that swear JFK was factual. I'm still setting people straight about the whole "magic bullet" theory.

    No, Star Wars IS factual. We got the video from a warm-hole directly from the future. It's a documentary.

    This movie is as successful at raising awareness of climate change as Independence Day was at raising awareness of alien invasions.

    You mean 'worm-hole', silly! ;)

    Freakily enough, warm-hole gave me exactly the same idea as you (well maybe not EXACTLY the same, but close ;)) :twisted: :p :wink:

    So to answer your question... YOU would give that thing such a name! :twisted:
