Scott,

I really didn't think that much of Reign of Fire. I'm still trying to figure out how the hell they got across the Atlantic not to mention where they kept getting fuel and spare parts for all of the vehicles. Especially the helicopter. Guess I played too much T2K huh!

You improvise, adapt, overcome! And other trite sayings...

A movie I thought was good, though most people seem to throw rotten tomatoes at it, was Virus -- the 1980 movie, not the newer one. It has an interesting plot, with the last survivors of humanity being in Antarctica, and throws a nuclear "war" started by automated defense systems in the US and Russia to boot. The virus also is man-made, called MM88, and accidentally let loose by a simple aircraft crash in the Alps.
