Sure , disaster movies are just empty gram calorie of aggregate destruction — but even when you do n’t take them badly , there are always some scenes that you just ca n’t rationalize . We ’ve garner the most vexing moment from the big disaster movies .
Disaster : vent
Our Breaking Point : The Subway Scene
How long do you cerebrate the people were sit in that power train ? Seriously — how long ? After a little while of watching masses pass out , one after the other , from hotness ? I ’d LEAVE . But no , this guy has to die a painful death walk through lava . Which in itself was a horrible thing — walk faster , melty guy !
Here ’s the remixed version — follow thefull picture here .

Disaster : Deep Impact
Our Breaking Point : The Wave of Love
Nothing impart a girl and a distant father back together like a giant tidal wave . Call me bleak - hearted , but this whole “ I ’m face up my devastation head on , and what ? Oh hey , there ’s my dad who was never around . What the hey , I forgive you ! ” Tasted like yuck . And to all the citizenry lade up their cars : Come on , it ’s the end of the earth , the roadstead are always block . I bet they mat up foolish when they realized they could have just stood on a high mountain to avoid the pee . But the clinch - it - out wave was still the bad .

Disaster : Armageddon
Our Breaking Point : Ben Affleck
skillful composition medicine and astronaut slo - mo walk , but even if you may convince the hearing that a squad of misfit drillers can be trained to do their chore in space , there ’s no means you may make me believe this scene . think of , the crew go up in two ships , and they get secernate . But do n’t worry , Ben Affleck ’s asteroid rover is n’t damaged , and he and the persist gang drive across a sharp - as - razor terrain , fly over a cannon , and find their way back to the other crew . After they snap their way out of the ship . WHY DID IT HAVE GUNS IN THE FIRST PLACE ? Uh , no .

Disaster : The Day After Tomorrow
Our Breaking stage : Frost Running
I did n’t remember it was possible for a character to piss me off more than when Dennis Quaid announced that he would be walk from Philly to New York , through the worlds most horrific storm , ever . And then his pic Word Jake Gyllenhaal and his friends ran from hoarfrost , and a pack of wolves . They outran cold . you’re able to not run from cold , and you’re able to not protect yourself from insensate by shutting the threshold , nor can you breathe air that is that cold — but screw science , you just plainly ca n’t die hard from cold .
calamity : Twister
Our Breaking stop : give thanks God For These Leather Straps
Twister was a fun movie about lunatics who chase twisters , thus create storm - chasing depend immeasurably cooler than it could ever be . But for the most part , it ’s just lot of push back and yelling up at the sky and seeing oxen fly past , etc — you know , good stuff . Until the bounteous one . At the goal , Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt chase and get chased by the really , really gravid twister , and rather of kick the bucket , they tie themselves with leather belts to a pole , and survive . Their arms remain integral and neither of them manage to get hit by any of the debris that is encircle them . favourable ducks , eh ?

catastrophe : Outbreak
Our Breaking stage : Dustin Saves The Town With His Words
Between a short ton of accidental wasteweir and the take aim professional scientist sticking their hands into septic blood sample or fall asleep on the job , the worst bit of all is by far Dustin Hoffman ’s magical speech . Yes , it ’s bad than the little daughter playing with the ebola emcee monkey . Never in a million years would Dustin Hoffman be allowed to sit up there in that woodworking plane . I ’d give him two minute before he was shot out of the sky .
calamity : The Happening
Our Breaking Point : The Ending
First the plants attack city , then the roads , then the small city , then groups , then angry people , then it ’s the steer . What . The Hell . How can something that probably took million of years to develop change in hours ? Because M. Night pronounce so , that ’s why — so quit your whining and watch the big terminate return . Wahlberg and Zooey then decide to felo-de-se themselves , because Zooey decided even though the plants are killing everyone , she should take their dead friend ’s child outside to run amuck . And now they are trap — by wind . meter to give up Bob Hope and take the air towards each other with liberal wholesale instrumentals , what HAPPENS ? Nothing . “ The event must have turn back before we go out here . ” Screw this movie .
Disaster : Dante ’s Peak
Our Breaking Point : Grandma Gives Her spirit
While I agree with having those who have already hold up full life sacrifice themselves first , this is a freaking strange aspect . They ’re like , “ Five moment to the docking facility , ” and she adjudicate to take the air to the shore too , for additional dramatics .
