You guys are thinking of the wrong movie. It's the Mysterians who cause earthquakes.

The first thought on my mind was, Suspicious no sightings of Godzilla? Hmmmmmm.

I'm sure it's all that fracking they are doing over there!

Few things are more pointless than worrying about earthquakes.

Blue Oyster Cult – Godzilla

All joking aside, while earth quakes and volcanic eruptions kill and injure many and destroy property and my heart goes out to the victims of such disasters, in truth, when the time comes that this geologic activity stops completely, that is actually THE very bad sign.

Not only would plate tectonics (the force that drives earthquakes, causes the earth’s plates to move slowly over time, and also creates new and uplifts existing mountain ranges) and volcanism stop, but more importantly the earth would lose its magnetic shield.

When that happens anyone still around on planet Earth will wish for the days of earthquakes and volcanoes.

Our planet will be dead and so will we.

No I haven’t. Is it as bad as it appears to be?

But then it couldn’t be any worse than Dante’s Peak or Volcano (both came out in 1997) and nothing could have been worse than The Day After Tomorrow.

My great nephew who was about 12 years old at the time, was staying with me one weekend when his parents were out of town and we ended up watching The Day After Tomorrow on HBO. We laughed and laughed and laughed at it as if it was a comedy. Even at 12, my great nephew thought it was ridiculous but he liked the special effects. Some movies are just so bad that they are actually good but for completely different reasons than intended. At least the makers of the Sharknado movies are in on the joke.

South Park BTW did a great parody of The Day After Tomorrow.

Season 9, Episode 8 (Two Days Before the Day After Tomorrow)

The Core makes those movies look Oscar Worthy......................

PLOT:

The Earth’s molten core has stopped ‘rotating’.
The Earth’s magnetic field has collapsed.
Birds are getting lost on migrations going the wrong way.
Airliners are getting lost, running out of fuel falling out of the sky.
We’re DOOMED!

A team of ‘specialists’ is assembled.
A specially designed ‘vehicle’ is built, based on the design of a hermit scientist living in the desert.
This vehicle can penetrate the Earth’s crust and make its way to ‘The Core’, and not melt while doing it.
Once there, they will strategically place Hydrogen Bombs at spaces surrounding the now solidifying core, melt it and get it spinning again by detonating them sequentially.


You will be aghast at the insipidness of this movie.
One thing to watch for while viewing this contrivance:

REMEMBER WHICH WAY IS “UP”.................................
