Some observations from last night's installment:
1. World's stupidest dialog: Girl (President's daughter, red-cross volunteer, was handing out T-shirts in the last part): I heard you're going to Las Vegas Doctor: Yes, we're heading for the transport now. Girl: I'm coming with you. Doctor: No, you're staying here. We're only taking a small contingent. Girl: I want to go! I can handle it! Doctor: Look, it's much worse in Las Vegas! There's a lot more casualties than here!!! Me: THEN WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU ONLY TAKING A SMALL CONTINGENT, ASS WIPE? 2. The rescue workers find survivors in the sunken hotel (a 45-storey hotel that apparently sank 40 floors straight into the Nevada desert). The survivors are on the floor below them. So they take a saw and cut a hole in the floor, to reach the survivors. Now, the survivors also are trying to dig out more survivors, on the other side of a pile of rocks. So the rescue workers start trying to move the pile of rocks. Um, Hello? WHY DON'T YOU JUST GO BACK UP AND CUT ANOTHER HOLE OVER THE OTHER SURVIVORS? Jesus, do I have to do EVERYTHING? 3. The aforementioned girl, who on Sunday was handing out T-shirts for the Red Cross (an important function in a disaster area, no doubt), all of a sudden last night she's DOING FUCKING SURGERY ON SOME PREGNANT WOMAN. WTF! 4. The President, after easilly dismissing the Secret Service who are protecting his daughter, NEVER TALKS TO HER AGAIN. You'd think that at some point, he'd want to know she's OK. Aparently he doesn't care; after all, he told his Secret Service guys to back off. 5. The whole concept of a fault suddenly forming, I can't even begin to discuss how ridiculous this is. 6. The whole concept of steering a fault line around a nuclear power plant by blowing up natural gas wells...which, why the hell are the wells so close to the nuclear power plant in the first place? And then when they get to the wells, they get out of their helicopters, and an army guy shows them the explosives. Then they take the explosives and GET BACK ON THE HELICOPTERS. AND FLY AWAY. HELLO! THE WELLS WERE RIGHT THERE!!! 7. OK there was a scene when the president was watching a monitor showing the growth of the new fault line. And on the monitor were little white blips that were supposed to be the helicopters. LIKE, OH MY GOD, DID YOU SEE THEM? THEY LOOKED LIKE SOMETHING OUT OF AN ATARI GAME FROM 1980!!! Truly comical.
Finally, the end. In the last five minutes of the movie, they 1. stopped the fault by blowing up natural gas wells, 2. the fault then started growing again, 3. the lower part of the use falls into the sea and suddenly the ocean starts pouring into the fault, and 4. The president addresses the nation, saying although the country is geographically separated, that we will always be together.
That's a full five minutes. Probably the most abrupt ending to a 4 hour movie I've ever seen. It'd be like if the Ten Commandments was 3 and a half hours of Moses as a boy, and the last 20 minutes were about him building a city, rejoining the Hebrews, going off to the Mountain, bringing the plagues on the Pharoah, leading his people from slavery, parting the Red Sea, getting the ten commandments, condemning the heretics, and spending forty years in the desert. Squash all that in 20 minutes, and you have basically the same thing as last nights five minute ending to 10.5.
All I can say is, so far 10.5 is the comedy of the Century. I couldn't stop laughing. Excellent work, kudos to the writers and the director (same guy, I think), and also, thanks to the Director of Photography who read the comments on IMDB and put even MORE unnecessary zooms in the film. Bravo.

FUCK ASS RAPE
hate
fucking mouse has back and forward buttons, and the keyboard, and I just lost my whole post.
So that's like the end? WTF? I guess they like those happy endings in made for tv apocalyptic movies. Something like that actually happening would be either a) 10x worse, or b) the aftermath would cause a complete societal collapse. These stupid fucks. Day After Tomorrow was all a ploy. They make up this fake bullshit science, and before the movie it's supposed to make everyone shiver, but the reviews all blast it to hell and then people think "oh well I guess we don't have to worry about global warming anyways." GO BACK TO SLEEP IT AIN'T THAT BAD SEE? WE HAVE EFFECTS! Fucking media.
Is part 1 the one where like L.A. breaks off of the mainland and everyone's rushing to try and get back before it fucking breaks off and sinks? Sucked.

Actually, this pretty much sums up people's thoughts on Global Warming:

I like cold weather. I'm from Florida. Fuck the heat. I like rain too. Growing up in Florida is like one big cock tease. It rains for five minutes every single fucking day, just enough to make it humid and muggier. Sleet and rain and hail for me baby.
Want your proof of global warming? It doesn't snow here. It did atleast once every year when my mom lived here 20 years ago. Now people think I'm fucking nuts because I was looking forward to my first snowfall. Everyone here's like "I've never seen snow wtf are you talking about."

a couple weeks ago this chick was like "whoooowow it sure is hot, if it gets much hotter this summer I'm gonna be passing out in the sun when I gets drunk'd." Hello bitch, it's still Spring.
in the news like yesterday or the day before on Yahoo they're like "scientist go back on their predictions and now foresee a calmer-than-usual hurricane season." Same day on NOAA's site they're like "fuck. shit. god damn that sucks, not good d00ds." Here's your fucking clue assholes: what happened to winter? Sure you cats up there in your blizzard had it. Down here I wore flipflops and shorts all winter long. So aside from the obvious that this is gonna be a hotter summer, there was no winter to cool anything down. Watch for Hurrican William, I'm tellin ya. FUCK SHIT UP!
I hope New Orleans sinks again and people are on the news screaming bloody murder "WHY DID YOU LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN!?!? DAMN YOU GEORGE BUSH!" and I'll drive down there just to laugh at dying people who were too stupid to move when they had the chance. And Tampa. Or fuck, just snap Florida off completely.
