The fact much of it was filmed in Atlanta gave it a bit more realism for me, lol.

I'm watching this tonight. I looooove disaster movies.

Cool! It was much better than I thought. I actually found myself "thinking" about this dilemma more than I ever did with the previously mentioned flicks. I don't want to ruin it by saying too much but you'll know what I mean when you watch it.

BTW, I had no idea this movie existed until the other day when I saw the trailer on HBO Max. it came out last year! Glad I stumbled across it.

I actually run "scenarios" through my head often. I'm by no means a prepper, but I'm not ill equipped either.

Aha, sure you're not.

You've got a secret bunker somewhere stockpiled with weapons and essentials. But as long as you're not like the dude "Mr. Harvey" in that movie called "Lovely Bones". Lol. Look it up if you haven't seen it or not familiar.

LOL. Don't let it give you any crazy ideas! That movie came out a while back and was directed by Peter Jackson. Interesting since he's the guy that made all the Lord of the Rings movies so I didn't know he did this creepy stuff too. Lol.

I finally get to watch A QUIET PLACE 2 since it's hitting digital! Because I'm not even considering a return to Theaters anytime soon.

Watched Fast & Furious 9 at AMC Prime the other day. Enjoyable but it has gotten stupid. Outer space? Come on…

Just wait until VIN Diesel is riding on the back of an Orca, throwing Tomahawk Missiles at Aliens or Zombies. 😳

"Aliens" would kick his ass. They're in the ceiling!

You and me both, but this one wasn’t so great. Nothing beats 2012 for hardcore disaster junkies. San Andreas with The Rock is pretty good too. Knowing with Nicholas Cage is ok but a bit dopey and light on the destruction. Train to Busain is awesome for zombies.

I’m hooked on the South Korean movies now on Amazon, tons of them you can watch for free.

Believer is awesome:

No tears for the dead is killer too: damn noticed both aren’t free anymore though!!

Wouldn’t doubt it man. I mean, we were joking a while back saying “what’s next? Outer space?!” Lol and they went and did just that. Ocean isn’t out of the question.

Never seen the movie, but had to read the book for school. I absolutely love reading books and I love Tom Clany books/movies/video games. The book was one of the hardest for me to ever read, and that was 20 years ago!

His best was "red storm rising", well told and prescient. Imagine that sentence being said by Sean Connery .

You need a Firestick bro. Download CINEMA HD and watch all of the good stuff. It's all you need to watch anything out there.

P.S. I enjoyed "Greenland."

I watched NOBODY and Wrath of Man this past week, both were fun.

I liked WoM as well.

Nomads is an American horror film that I saw many years ago and recently watched again. Found it to be as creepy as when I first saw it.

"Evil spirits haunt a French anthropologist (Pierce Brosnan) and inhabit the doctor (Lesley-Anne Down) who treats him."
