Earthquake (1974). Man, does this movie suck.

Last time I caught a part of Earthquake on TV I was distracted by the fact that the sound of the jackhammer used in one scene is the same as the Pulse Rifles used in Aliens.

I know Aliens cAme out much later but…dammit!

What was the obsession in killing Charlton Heston unexpectedly in his 70’s movies???

Hell, the bad guy even gets away in Omega Man!

wasnt meteor/asteroid with Sean Connery (which flopped hard ) the last of the big budget one of these for years (until the 90s/00s anyways)

Oh, that’s nothing; OJ saves a cat* from the apartment of a teacher of the deaf (Jennifer Jones) and gives the cat to Fred Astaire at the end when JJ falls out of the scenic elevator and go splat! She and FA were starting a romance.

  • In the Cracked magazine send-up, OJ tosses the cat out the window (Cats always land on their feet. But not from 92 floors up.); Cat go splat!

ETA: Didn’t watch the second clip before posting.

Maybe…seems a volcano one didn’t do well and the airplane one that sank in the ocean didn’t do well.

And how did people not ever realize that George Kennedy was a 70’s Mr. Glass??? He had to be sabotaging those planes.

There’s also OJ in Capricorn One. Frigging great, tight film in which OJ does ok with what he’s given.

Preaching to the choir. Plus, he was married to Denise Nicholas in that one!
