Woot woot woot #7
I can’t believe War of the Worlds did well. I really couldn’t think of anything for that question. And looking at the previous answers, no one had answered it.
And I am shocked that no one answered “Three Mile Island” for a specific Man-made disaster. That probably would have been my answer if the gulf oil spill disaster was on everyone’s minds.
Three Mile Island wasn’t actually a disaster.
#4! Woo hoo! Guess I’m just a disastrous kind of gal.
Thanks for a fun one, MsWhatsit – and, as always, thanks for running it, Rebo.
36th? Jeez, that kind of finish is just… y’know… well… disastrous!
There was, weirdly enough, a Nazi Titanic movie. It was made in 1943 by Universum Film Aktiengesellschaft with Goebbels pushing the project ahead. Like the 1997 movie it went way over budget and questions were raised about whether Herbert Selpin, the director, knew what he was doing. But this was Nazi Germany not Hollywood so the Gestapo killed Selpin and replaced him with a new director, Werner Klingler. James Cameron should appreciate his luck.
This version of the story stressed how the sinking was caused by British greed. The owners of the ship ordered it to ran too fast in order to manipulate the stock market. The film’s hero was a German first officer who unsuccessfully protested this decision and later rescued numerous passengers during the sinking.
So… another feud? 
Ugh, my performance there was a… Well, you know.
Apparently Dolores didn’t see your note before (or immediately after) she posted the scores. I’m guessing Sigmagirl’s “Sully” got included with the “Captain Sully Sullenberger” group, as she finished just ahead of me.
Beat you to it. 
Quite a few, actually. Scroll down here: Find - IMDb. The Unsinkable Molly Brown doesn’t even appear on that list. There was a Titanic scene in Time Bandits, too.
Good catch.
And I hate when this happens, but we have a different winner. Way to go, Swampy! Sorry, labtrash.

S’okay, not like there’s money involved here. Besides, I got the last one - it’s swampbear’s turn anyways.
…There IS no money involved, right??!?!?
labtrash, I feel your pain. At least you weren’t dethroned because of those unfortunate sex tapes making the rounds.
Whoa, #44, I suck!
But not as much as I do.
Whooo-Who, my first top 10 finish.
If there is, I want my cut.
Swampy bribes me with cockies and beer…
