Finally imported the @shoutstudios.bsky.social - Irwin Allen: Master of Disaster Collection - Blu-ray Boxset that arrived today from the US.
Yeah these films aren't classics, but I always find enjoyment watching older Disaster films.

#Airplane! (AKA #FlyingHigh overseas) sends up both types of #films, the wartime-super-soldier-saves-civvies & #disasterfilms, by having the disaster befall a civilian plane, and Ted Striker (rather than Stryker in Zero Hour), has to use his wartime skills & overcome his PTSD to save the civvies 🤓
#Zoomers & other young #filmsky friends may need context: #ZeroHour was a terrible #film that was not necessarily well-known, but VERY typical of a certain, super-popular #movie genre at the time. Troubled war-vet relies on his wartime skillset to solve civilian problem; intersects w/ #disasterfilms
55 Years ago : Airport mchenryslair.com/2025/03/05/5...
The 1970 film Airport is one of the most famous examples of the disaster movie genre and marked it start in the 1970s.

The problem with having watched so many #disasterfilms is that I spend an inordinate amount of time comparing current events to specific movies and pondering where the rogue scientists are that are supposed to fix it all. #movies #whatiwatch #disasters #currentevents
Ya know all those post-apocalyptic movies and shows like Star Trek, where humanity comes together to reach the stars after a man-made global catastrophe? Buckle up. We’re getting ready to film the prequel.
