Since you probably know better, maybe you could do a post on disaster movies that had an unhappy ending.Nikhil Pahwahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03693281110830585801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8204542.post-1147426794052357032006-05-12T15:09:00.000+05:302006-05-12T15:09:00.000+05:30Are you serious, dude?

If I <I>had</I> read it, there's no way I would have written that last para - there's no question of "internalizing" and reproducing something that you've read only a few hours before :)Jabberwockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10210195396120573794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8204542.post-1147416013504611042006-05-12T12:10:00.000+05:302006-05-12T12:10:00.000+05:30Nice article but p.s. sounds like the last paragra...Nice article but p.s. sounds like the last paragraph from Roger Ebert's review of Poseidon.<BR/><BR/>To quote:<BR/>"..In the proper hands, this could have been a sequel to "Airplane!" named "Ocean Liner!" in which once the characters battle their way to the top (i.e., bottom) of the overturned ship, a second wave flips it again, and they have to retrace their steps."<BR/><BR/>I guess you had "internalized" Roger's review ;-)<BR/>(I hope you don't mind me saying so)Shailesh Nairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17285020942849167328noreply@blogger.com
