I have just wached the trailer for The Core.

Basic story: The US develop an earthquake bomb, and in testing it stop the earth's core rotating. Cos of it the electromagnetic field is about to fizzle out, leaving us cooked in a microwave. Your mission Jim, should you choose to accept it, is to take an experimental craft someone just happens to have built, to the earth's core and start her up.

The trailer shows the Golden Gate bridge being melted, and civilians plunging into the sea.

My problem.

After 9/11 I remember hearing how this would affect Hollywood, people wouldn't want all those Die Hard/End of the World/Everything blowing up type movies any more. Yet here we are in 2003 with The Core, T3, and others.

Did anything change? Opinions?

I think people forget easily- either they forget the tragedies easily, or they forget what they said easily- I dunno.

Looks like another action-packed, over-the-top special-effects loaded, scene-chewed, braindead-dialogued, nonsense-plotted, craptacular Hollywood blockbuster like "Armaggeddon."

It should make hundreds of millions worldwide.

Yup. That's truth.

Why do movies have to be so stupid? Why do I have to see advertisements for the Core whenever I access my Yahoo mail?
