The Old Man at 01:46 reading his newspaper not giving a care about anything being launched into OBLIVION always stayed in my mind for some reason. Even after I long forgot about this movie that few seconds long scene of Him NOT GIVING a SHIT as he ROCKETED OFF just makes me SMILE!
I still find this moment hilarious because the water's coming from the wrong direction. From downtown, it would've hit the fountain FIRST, and THEN the Washington Square Arch! 😂 Special Effects still kick ass, though!
Certainly an amazing feat considering what budget they had to work with in comparison to their direct competition Armageddon (1998) and that the CGI was still in its crib at the time.
it is about the art style as well. how it should look how are the color and movement. the team has a very high skill in art and realism. not today LOL.
I used to watch the making of documentary. It was very interesting to see how they made the tsunami and the fact that they needed to make it appear at least realistic
0:22 a rock that size coming in as fast as 25,000-35,000 mph would be burning so bright that it would blind you permanently. not to mention the shockwave of it passing that close would be sufficient to destroy anything and everything it hits
Everyone standing "relatively" close would be pulverised "long" before the comet hit the surface. Notwithstanding the fact that it'd be moving in excess of 40.000 km/h (probably)
this shot impressed me 00:30 - at least as far as i could tell, all the vehicles were real. Nowadays the entire background would be CGI cars. This shot however almost looks like genuine news footage of an event.
By the looks of it just the vehicles in the foreground, everything in the background looks like CGI to me. Still that would be the right amount of CGI anyway. No need to have real stuff if it's just a pixel on a screen anyway.
@@pibmovieclips I tried to find a definitive answer and came up with this post on another site which linked to a making of video which isnt online anymore: "It was a new, unopened freeway, a mile long, filled with extras and their cars The video explains a lot, but here are some interesting points: There were 2100 extras, in 1870 cars The extras brought their own clothing and props for their cars 116 cars were positioned every 15 minutes Many trucks contained food and drinks for the extras, as it was very hot that day Motor-homes were used by medics for anyone who felt faint Porta-loos were available every 1/8th of a mile Extras were recruited from local high-schools, and most were from Manassas An AM frequency was set up so that production could speak to the extras in their cars, using 1 walkie-talkie The entire scene was shot in 2 days No digital effects were used, apart from the comet"
The part with Tea Leoni and her father always gets me. That's gotta be something to hold your daughter in your arms as she clings to you for comfort, knowing you're both about be obliterated by a gigantic tsunami. Very heartbreaking, especially since they just had a cathartic resolution to their relationship.
I like how the people in New York City are trying to outrun the wave as if they didn't have months of preparation to get out of the city and that goes for all those people trapped on the freeway. If you look closely, you see an elderly lady climbing into a cab as the wave hits Times Square. What's even more weird is that a lot of these people seem to be doing their daily routines like they aren't carrying luggage or clothes for travel. I mean, they knew that the smaller meteor was going to hit so I would assume they'd at least want to escape the devastation of that one.
They did not know exactly where the comet would hit until , I think, less than 12 hours? Been a while since I have seen this film so I am not sure of the timeline. Anyway, people did not know until almost the last minute who had to run and who was safe.
@@stevenmanchester2104 the President addressed the nation and said it would hit somewhere along the eastern seaboard. He even mentioned the speed and height of the wave so I think anyone could assume that the cities along the coast would be wiped out.
its called flight when i survival mode.. it doesnt matter that its pointless to run, people will still do it out of instinct to flee danger no matter how pointless it is. and people may have had warning to flee well before hand but just look at all the people that ignore evacuation orders when a hurricane is coming. people are dumb. just that simple.
The Twin Towers before 9/11 were seen as super strong buildings that cannot collapse, they can also be seen standing but severely damaged in movies like Independence Day or AI Artificial Intelligence.
@@Extreme96PL They were super strong buildings that couldn't collapse, just saying. But in a concept of this large tsunami, they would be torn off their base like a match.
I got to watch this movie in my 9th grade Earth Science class (roughly 12 years ago), and this scene left me mindblown! I also had no idea that the movie had been made in ‘98, and holy CRAP, that CGI still works really well!
The idea of an extinction event level asteroid hitting the planet is something that terrifies me to this day. I was obsessed with it as a child and even now I look up at the sky in fear some days.
I mean it's possible, but not likely (in our lifetime). That being said statistically speaking we are due another extinction event just around now plus/minus 10milion years. So who knows, maybe tomorrow, or at this rate we could be already colonizing stars when the next event happens, or be extinct due to own activity...
Info: this is the first disaster movie directed by a woman mimi leder she was a writer and producer of emergency room series This was the first vfx movie made by dreamworks company in 98.
You know, watching this movie and realizing the only building that kept standing in Manhattan after the flooding was World Trade Center's Twin Towers, is ironic in some kind of a gruesome way.
If you knew this was coming for as long as the characters in this movie there wouldn't be nearly as many people near the coasts- some but not that many
Spoilers............ There was originally one comet.A US/Russian space mission went out and tried to destroy the comet by planting nukes which ended up breaking the comet into two pieces. The government only knew the final impact points for both comets only days before impact because they attempted a last minute intercept with Russian and US ICBMs that failed.
Like those on the beaches of the boxing day 2004 Earthquake and the thousands in Japan that remained even though they where told to go to high ground. People are not that good at making choices as one may think.
@@raystewart3648The Boxing Day tsunami had next to no warning because it was caused by an earthquake, not something much more easily predictable like a comet. The vast majority of the people on beaches on that day in real life would have known nothing until the waters pulled back.

@@nicholasphelps3872 Surely, that can't be classified as suicide anyway. It's not like they have chosen to end their own life. Something else did it, and if it didn't seem possible to escape it. Staying calm and take their fate could be at worst considered to be wrong judgement. But not suicide.
@@pibmovieclips the decision is permanent. And though the chances of survival are unlikely, they are never zero. And even zero wouldn't be above a miracle by God anyway. It's not a decision I would ever take lightly. Especially considering that one could still be used for good in the world. My view is the possibility that is could be counted as deliberate forfeiture of one's own life, is a reason good enough to keep fighting.
Fun fact: at 00:15 when what’s his face gets out of the car and says “Beeterman” with the sign that says, “Virginia Beaches 6 miles”, that scene was actually shot in Virginia but 5 hours away from VA Beach on the Fairfax county parkway where I remember sitting in traffic with my parents because of the filming at the time.
People sometimes say that, in disasters like this one, people who don't attempt to run are dumb But in reality, they are the smart ones. They know they can't escape this disaster. So rather than try to do so, they just accept that they are going to die and stand still waiting for it to come
Wanna know what's even dumber? Attributing labels to the actions of people who are facing down a wall of ocean that reaches the clouds.....there is no right or wrong answer for their actions given the mind fucking circumstance they are in...
@@jonbanks3143 True for most people. But some people would want to die on their own terms. We see several examples of this where people met their fate with some form of acceptance such as sitting in the park reading a newspaper, standing on the beach with an estranged father, or staring lovingly into the eyes of your spouse in the traffic jam while others tried to run.
The POTUS told everyone where the meteor was going to hit and when. I am very sure that every government worldwide told people in which direction to go for evacuation purposes. When the first meteor hit, there was the other one still on a collision course. Even without the knowledge that the astronauts were planning on sacrificing themselves for the greater good of the planet, it would have been better for everyone to at least die together with your loved ones than to die alone. I think that the people whom waited for the last minute to flee from the East Coast were hoping that the meteor would hit somewhere else in the world, and that they would have been fine to a point. The guys whom were seen carrying their surf boards, in my opinion, not to mention those on motorcycles had the right idea in mind.
It’s actually a COMET if you actually watch the movie. A meteor is primarily made of rock, while a comet is made of primarily ice and gas. Also, if it were a meteor, it would technically be a meteorite anyway if it was inside our atmosphere.
European Cities that may be affected by such a how tsunami which covered the of New York. (Lisbon, Barcelona, Dublin, Gdansk, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Oslo, Kaliningrad, St. Petersburg, Riga, Tallinn, Helsinki, Amsterdam (Canals water will go out into the streets and flood the city completely) Paris, London, Berlin, Hamburg, Rome, maybe others cyties . The rivers of these cities can overflow their banks and flood very much.
What gets me? Is people just stand there and watch It? Come in and not run.. They wait until after it hits, then they run.. The minute I saw that thing coming into the atmosphere I would be running..
Armageddon. Deep Impact. LOL! Both came out within a month of each other and both basically had a similar plot. What cracks me up is that both movies are way different from each other, to the point they are almost apples to oranges. Armageddon was more light hearted and a "mans" action movie. Deep Impact is a great movie to see if you are looking for something more sentimental. Both went for different audiences and, apparently, it worked. They both did a great job AND disaster fans got TWO movies that summer rather than just one.
Pretty much how i look at it. I wouldn't call it a different movies at all though. One has "happy end", one has not was about the only difference. But you know what? I couldn't care less. Actually I'm glad we got the "bad" end version to Armageddon too. I hate when movies overcome seem-ably "unsolvable/ stoppable" problem in a disaster movie. I watch disaster movies to see the World BURN. XD
I keep seeing new bits of stuff I've never noticed in the video. There are only two legit realistic meteor impact scenes in media: This movie and the one(s) from The Expanse.
They say it's going to hit the ocean somewhere off the coast of Hatteras which is not incredibly far from VA Beach but without knowing the full distance from land that this will hit its perfectly conceivable that they'll initially survive.
I dont see any comments about the two parents staring at each other in their final moments. I love that part. Knowing their kid might make it. That would be me and my wife
It kinda irritated me when the chick had every chance to escape the damage but basically just volunteered to go commit suicide with her dad.. plus the wave wouldn't have been THAT huge. I seem to remember scientists saying at the time it would have only been 1/10th as high or something.
It’s one of the better asteroid/comet impact movies, in which there is actually an impact and you don’t have to wait hours for that thing to strike and they can destroy it miraculously within the last minute 😂

Pretty much how i look at it. I wouldn't call it a different movies at all though. One has "happy end", one has not was about the only difference.
But you know what? I couldn't care less. Actually I'm glad we got the "bad" end version to Armageddon too.
I hate when movies overcome seem-ably "unsolvable/ stoppable" problem in a disaster movie.
I watch disaster movies to see the World BURN. XD
Happy the old man reading the newspaper got it.
As 5-year-olds we see the bathroom:
There's still no building in New York City that's taller than that wave
Every time I see movies like this I'm always say to myself why run you're gonna die anyways just embrace it.
I forgot how slow they made the meteor. That thing would be in the atmosphere for like 2 seconds.
I saw this film in the theaters with my dad and family I must’ve been 9 or 10 but I had no idea what I was watching.
One of the most impressive disaster movies ever seen.
Literally all running is going to do is save them a few extra seconds.
Niall:Runs with Uncle Zuma & Auntie Hanako while they are holding Crisino & Sonic Jr
01:46 now there's a guy who's committed to the local bugle.
Better CGI than the flash
this is a pretty iconic looking scene
Wakko Jr:Runs faster away from meteor waves with Auntie Red & Uncle Eddie
It was a comet in Deep
Impact. In Armageddon it was an asteroid. Neither was a meteor, which by definition burn up in the atmosphere.
As a non-American, I'm relieved to know that apocalyptic cataclysms only affect the US
The CGI of this movie is amazing for 1998…
I keep seeing new bits of stuff I've never noticed in the video. There are only two legit realistic meteor impact scenes in media: This movie and the one(s) from The Expanse.
This movie is heartbreaking
Especially when the people can't make it out alive.
Red:Running with Precious while holding Delaney
Tsunami come to and everything broke
In 2046 Can We Stop The Asteroid Like Armageddon?
So, this is what happened in Sonic Adventure when Perfect Chaos destroy Station Square...
Exactly!
@@toryliss3925 Cool... I guess.
@@AngelMartinez-tx5ll Way past cool
THAT'S RIGHT FRODO, RIDE THAT BIKE MY BOY. UPHILL, UPHILL.
RIDE YOUR ASS OFF
The twin towers were still there on the spot😢😢😢😢
I think the shock wave would have hit and killed them way before the wave arrived.
They say it's going to hit the ocean somewhere off the coast of Hatteras which is not incredibly far from VA Beach but without knowing the full distance from land that this will hit its perfectly conceivable that they'll initially survive.
It looks so real
0:53 tsunami scene
I dont see any comments about the two parents staring at each other in their final moments. I love that part. Knowing their kid might make it. That would be me and my wife
The water is never clear during a tsunami.
It kinda irritated me when the chick had every chance to escape the damage but basically just volunteered to go commit suicide with her dad.. plus the wave wouldn't have been THAT huge. I seem to remember scientists saying at the time it would have only been 1/10th as high or something.
Fear not death or the unknown. If this be our time let it guide us home.
It’s one of the better asteroid/comet impact movies, in which there is actually an impact and you don’t have to wait hours for that thing to strike and they can destroy it miraculously within the last minute 😂
I wanted for it to hit the Earth too :D
You only know this now because of the Russian asteroid impact, back then it was just guess work, like so many other movies.
Half the reason we watch disaster movies is to see just how badly they f up the world.
@@pibmovieclipsme to. Are there any other shows or movies 🎥 where it also hits?
Dont look up, but far more catastrophic.
3 years before the actual tragedy 😢
2 planes to do the tragedy
9/11 but with water
Bosses like: you still coming to work right...
1:41 Rip, Twin Towers
Overdose of millennial nostalgia
