The Greatest Movie EVER! Podcast 
The Chairman of Iron Chef America is a super scientist? …My life really could be more full.
This one was on Sci-Fi Channel a few weeks ago.
Also, it totally wasn’t the movie I was expecting. turns out that I was thinking of “Solar Crisis”, another one that you might have fun with. The leading lady ends the movie by stripping down to her underwear and flying a talking bomb into the sun.
Paul, Paul….
I lose my faith in you, dude. How did you not catch that this was in effect ‘Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea’ 2.0, minus the super cool submarine?
Oh, sure, they tried to throw some ‘chalk talk’ to rationalize the whole “SKY IS ON FIRE, MAN!” thing, and rather than launching a nuke FROM the North Pole (to blow out the flaming Van Allen belt) they blow the snot out of the North Pole, but when you mentioned going to ‘crush depth’ to tap into the trans-Atlantic telephone cable…say, I hope they didn’t send divers out at that depth…
But no Giant Octopus attacking the sub I gather. That’s one of the great moments of VttBotS, where with all that is going on suddenly a massive Octopus clamps onto the Seaview and Nelson and Crane look at each other with this “WHAT the F**k NOW?!” attitude…
I think the science bulls**t word you were seeking was ‘Coronal Mass Ejection’…that’s some nasty stuff, I learned about it on Coast to Coast AM. I gather in the movie a CME is like a laser beam or something that zaps stuff, but that’s not what a real CME would do…a real CME is a boiling fierce mass of plasma energy LARGER THAN THE ENTIRE EARTH and man, if that hits, boom time. It’s not the Ozone layer that protects us from that, it’s the Van Allen belts and the magnetic field.
I should like to point out that if MilSpec com sats are being knocked out, I strongly doubt CNN is gonna still be on the air…
“Coronal Mass Ejection” That sounds like something you take a pill for.
Anywho, I gotta say, its a bit early to be doing Christmas jokes. Can’t you at least wait until November?
