Unless it's like watching a video game, it's not a movie anymore. As far as I am concerned this is brainless. The lost people born in the digital age. :sigh:

Fair entertainment, but as someone that worked in the Nuclear Power Industry for 14 years and started up numerous plants, terribly inaccurate,

How inaccurate? Consider as accurate as Airplane is about the airline industry!

I did not think that it was accurate, either......but I still liked it.

BTW, the power plant interior (IE the pump) looked as if it was made of Styrofoam...

A hospital, what is it?
 
The interior and layout of the control room was pretty accurate.

The biggest joke of the whole thing was when they were going through all the prints trying to figure out how to shutdown the reactor from outside the control room.............................................. ................HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

:screwy:

I was laughin to myself during that part......I just thought that it was funny that they would use THAT gauge of wire to short out a gnerator for a nuclear plant......and an o-scope that didn't change readouts.....:D

Listen to rap, that's ludicrous
 
I thought you would enjoy the little Ludacris joke. :D

Surely you aren't saying that Airplane is not factual?

Try "The Andromeda Strain" or "Soylent Green" :naughty:

It put a damper on nuclear proliferation.

I feel about that statement about like the Turks feel about Midnight Express!

"It KILLED tourism", they always tell me at work.

vinyldavid, check out "Soylent Green". Will blow your mind.

And don't any of you old-timers do Sir Charleton's final statement at the end!


Don't wanna ruin it for ol' david!:yuck:
