I enjoyed Greenland with Gerrard Butler. I appreciated the focus on the human element that didn't feel annoying.

A lot of great movies/shows are already mentioned! I wanted to add a quite unknown one "The Salute of the Jugger". And when I think of it with a similar scenario "Mad Max Fury Road"

I actually liked the Sharknado movies. They're dumb as shit, but it's a good stupid kinda laugh.

[–] rockandsock@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

The Posiden Adventure. I must have seen this 20 times growing up in the 80s.

Geostorm is one of my guilty pleasures!

[–] original_reader@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Falls into the category "so bad it's ~~watchable~~ good".

I unironically enjoyed Knowing (2009).

Also more light-hearted - Seeking A Friend for the End of the World (2012)

Not entirely disaster films, but the world ends in both.

[–] PandaPikachu@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I love disaster films and I thought "Knowing" was great. I do think the ending could've been better, but everything up to that point was very entertaining.

[–] eagleeyedtiger@lemmy.nz 2 points 2 years ago

Have to agree with you there. The ending was the weakest part of it.

[–] shandrakor@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Wyrmwood! Australian zombie movie. Hilariously ridiculous!

[–] PandaPikachu@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Tidal Wave (2009) is a Korean disaster flick that has some of the most realistic tsunami scenes I've ever seen (some fun over-the-top ones too). Takes a while to get to the action, it makes sure you care about the characters before all hell breaks loose. Definitely worth checking out.

Dantes peak is a movie I think I liked more than other folks, not my fav but definitely in the rotation.
