[edit] Based on a book?

I've not seen the movie, but the plot description sounds a lot like Richter 10 by Arthur C. Clarke & Mike McQuay, even down to the sealing of faults with nuclear bombs. Other connections seem to be the GG Bridge being destroyed, predicting earthquakes, and other things. Anyone have any idea if the writers of the TV movie used the book, or if it was just a big coincidence? --StarkRG 01:42, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Zoom

This film and it's sequel are noted for their 'zoom' camera effects, which many response pages have noted for causing excessive disruption of concentration. Just thought we might want to add that. (207.81.164.238 00:39, 9 February 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Article name

The title states this as a TV series yet the body calls it a film, shouldn't one of these be changed?--Daniel Berwick

Yes, that needs to be fixed and now has been. :) Collectonian (talk) 15:24, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Mt Rushmore

The article says that Mt Rushmore is one of the landmarks destroyed? I don't remember this. --Mjrmtg (talk) 17:53, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

I vaguely remember that scene, but I don't have the DVD to double check it against. Collectonian (talk) 18:16, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
