Tijger2099 Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Armageddon, in my opinion the best movie I've ever seen. A disaster film about a massive meteorite about to hit the Earth and kill all living organisms, a global killer. A team off the best oil-drillers in the world (lead by Bruce Willes) is trained in a very short time into astranouts. Their job? to destroy the meteorite with a nuclear bomb from the inside to save mankind. A really "must see" movie with plenty of hilarious scenes and lots of destruction. The downside of the movie is that quiet alot of patriotism is going on, but hey that's only a very small detail. Please if you've seen the movie too post your opinions on this impressive master piece, and if you haven't seen it yet, make sure you do soon! Just to give a small impression about the movie I looked for 2 professional trailers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCsnsFm0pzM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xsAVo4i8ul4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jemathonical Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 I remember seeing it ages ago. I thought it was pretty good. Not the greatest movie in the world though. ^Sir Jem 05-The Bunny Drinking Blog?^ Click it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Its not a bad movie but Ben Aflecks love scene with the animal crackers with Liv Tyler is cringingly awful. It didn't live up to its title like Deep Impact did though which was annoying. On a more positive note didn't Paris get hit by a meteor shower early on in the film? Happy with that.

Nadril Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 I don't think I've ever actually heard "Armageddon" and "impressive masterpiece" put together before. See something new every day. :-s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lateralus Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 It's quite typical action movie dross, but I like it. I find it to be pretty emotional. La lune ne garde aucune rancune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
How2PK Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Yea, I guess you can call it a modern classic. Not really a fan of the movie, though. But it's pretty good. Deffinitly essential for the nineties, and Michael Bay of course. Which is also the reason that 60% of the planet hates it.

As for disaster movies, this one ranks pretty low on my list. Mainly, I see it as a missed opportunity...it had the budget and cast to be really good, but failed, imo.

I'm one of those ill-informed ones. :P But needless to say I've seen Armageddon and thought it was great.

indy500fan Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I remember when I first saw this almost when it came out I almost cried at the end, I felt like a total idiot. Watched it again later and realized how cheesy it was. A fun movie though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripsis Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I love it :) I've actually owned the movie for several years now. I must say that I'm a sucker for disaster movies O:) It's too bad The Core totally copied it.. down to the whole "Plan B detonated from Earth" thing :roll: - 99 fletching | 99 thieving | 99 construction | 99 herblore | 99 smithing | 99 woodcutting - - 99 runecrafting - 99 prayer - 125 combat - 95 farming - - Blog - DeviantART - Book Reviews & Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrington Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 It was a pretty good movie in terms of action and effects, but the plot was about as deep as a puddle. It was full of "MTV Science", and at times bordered on being outright stupidity. Despite that, I still enjoyed it. I wouldn't say it was the best movie ever though... in fact, I don't think it would even make it into my Top250, were I ever to make one lol.

Matok Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I don't think I've ever actually heard "Armageddon" and "impressive masterpiece" put together before. couldnt agree more... a typical disaster movie with the usuall patriotic crap, nothing more. "Die Hard"(first) and "The Terminator" first 2 chapters ,now,those are true masterpieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
