After discussing disastrous movies last week, Matt and Ed talk about Disaster Movies this week. Specifically, they contrast the more human-centric stories of the genres '70s heyday against the inhumanity of the '90s force of nature entries into the genre, and the out-and-out disaster porn that has come to define so much of blockbuster filmmaking over the past decade. They also talk about Larry David maybe bringing back
Curb Your Enthusiasm, the complexity of the
Jack Frost series, and wonder which of his films Kevin Smith will cannibalise after he fails to make a
Mallrats TV series.
