    The subplot with Chic, and his estranged wife/son, always kinda sets off the tears in my eyes. Because Chic is clearly a good dude, who made a bad mistake at some point in his life (probably due to gambling, given his favorite Vegas habit, lol). And he actually gets to redeem himself in the eyes of the two people he loves the most. His son running up to him at the end of the film, and the two of them hugging, just makes me want to CRY! Great subplot that isn't given a ton of screen time, but always hits me deeply in the feels! lol

The Harry/AJ scene because it just shows how much they mean to each other as family and the latter out of respect for a man he once said was NASA's biggest mistake, it shows a bit of growth in Sharp's character.

    1998 had some incredible movies. I saw this in theaters and it was so much more than anyone expected. This was actually a rather tame movie from Michael Bay in terms of explosions because in this case they fit in really well with the plot of the movie. It's not like some random over the top explosion. It's literally asteroids and meteors and what not so destruction is inevitable. This movie is paced really well and has an amazing cast. Plus it gifted us with another great Aerosmith song.

    Hands down the most hilarious "Fun Fact" of all time was when Ben Affleck was reading the script, he asked Michael Bay, "Wouldn't it be easier to train astronauts to be drillers as opposed to vice versa?"
    Michael Bay, the autuer of modern cinema, eloquently replied, "Shut the f*ck up"

    • @szeddezs
      @szeddezs 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +13

      It would be so much easier to train a bunch of drillers to do basic space walking things and leave the advanced astronauting to the professional astronauts than it would be to teach astronauts decades of experience and intuition that is involved with drilling.
      Michael Bay was absolutely right.

It was John Ritter’s final role before his death, and he was fantastic. It also starred Dwight Yoakam, who did an incredible job.

    I also experienced an earthquake during a movie. It was during the original movie "Pet Cemetery"and also at a scary scene. Difference was we were AT the movie theater in Brea, Ca. The quake was only like a 3.1, but it was centered under Brea (very small town in SoCal) so being directly under us, it shook harder than the 5.1 you just had. The ceiling tiles were falling from the ceiling and everyone jumped up and booked to the exit and bottlenecked at the door. Then it was over almost as fast as it started. Not everyone came back to finish watching the rest of the movie.
