I just finished watching Merlin and am now watching Meteor. And they just showed a commercial for The Storm.

NBC loves me and wants me to be happy, that's all I'm saying. Although if they really wanted me to be happy, they'd actually commit to an extinction event in one of these things. I'm just sayin'.

EDIT: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA--

... er, okay, maybe I wasn't supposed to laugh that loud at Christopher Lloyd biting it.

OTHER EDIT: I'm starting to believe that meteor's aiming for that kid. I mean, REALLY.

Have you heard about this? I saw an ad for it yesterday and thought it sounded like your kind of thing.

I know, right? I was just bitching about this at the office (after I tried to explain the whole thing with the brown dwarf stuck in the moon NEGATING LOCAL GRAVITY ahahahaha). Just once, I'd like a movie that ended with "Oh shit, nothing worked, time to hole up in a cave and wait to die."

That was one thing I had to give Knowing credit for, because as delightfully crappy as that movie was, they committed to the end of the world for a change.

*snickers at your ETA* I see we will have no "James Cromwell in a flying car" equivalent this movie.

He got hit by a van. IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE.

This is one of the very few times where it actually would have made MORE sense for him to be spontaneously squished by a meteor. Irony! *fist pump*

Like my dream-idea of Armageddon as directed by John Carpenter: the astronauts would blow the asteroid in two (probably blowing up all of the astronauts, not just Bruce Willis, in the process) and the pieces would fly past Earth...and one would smash into the Moon, knocking it out of orbit towards Earth. End with someone going "Oh shi--"

Hey, John Carpenter destroyed the world as we know it in at least one film. (A bad one, but still.)

lol! i love how they killed off the one person that was trying to save them all

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

And they *did* nuke the planet at the end of Terminator: Rise Of The Machines.

I wish they'd make a good movie where they committed to the world ending.

... is Stacy Keach's deputy one of the kids from Home Improvement?

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

OMG YES. AND NOW HE'S BIG AND PUFFY.

Also, I've been pretending that Winston Zeddmore retired from the Ghostbusters and joined the military since Ernie Hudson appeared on my screen and it's infinitely more hilarious. :D

Aw dammit! I didn't know about meteor and missed the first hour watching Criminal Intent! Maybe it'll be on hulu or the website, sigh.

We do have to compensate for the lack of Random Flying Objects somehow.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Apparently we have to compensate by sending Marla Sokoloff on the worst road trip EVER. First they cream Christopher Lloyd with a Sweet Pickles van and now it's Mexican outlaws? Oh, okay.

[wrenlet.livejournal.com]

... did they really just shoot one down with a shoulder-fired rocket?

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

YES. Oh, science fail, how I love thee.

Boy, that meteor's like a superhero! Protecting kids from bullying, saving women from rape ... okay, she just killed two criminals and stole a police car, I've completely lost my train of thought.

[wrenlet.livejournal.com]

I love how the first rule of apocalypse is apparently "Do not fuck with Stacy Keach."

[wrenlet.livejournal.com]

Also, Daddy Cop played a gay doctor in the "Tales of the City" miniseries-es... what's the plural of that, anyway? I keep picturing him making out with Thomas Gibson and it's very distracting.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Stacy Keach is easily the best thing about this show. He will FUCK YOUR SHIT UP.

... okay, seriously, these meteors are AIMING for that kid.

[wrenlet.livejournal.com]

HOLY FLAMING TRUCK.

*glee*

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

The Benny Hill theme started playing in my head almost as soon as Holy Flaming Truck came around the corner.

It was awesome. :D

That was the most ridiculous movie ever. And now I can't wait for next weeks! Poor Marla Solkoff, she's having a bitch of a day.
