Well I did watch it, that was more a measure of just how hot it still was outside.

Just how poorly researched was it, though I dare say for many it was quite plausible, now thats a worry.

The highlight for me occurred in the Maldives, when the guy that predicted it all got T-boned by solar plasma. All around the world multi storey buildings were being obliterated and there sat our hero with female companion, on the veranda of a ramshackle looking timber hut.

The ball of plasma enters stage right, hurtles in at great velocity with a direct hit on where they are sitting. One assumes they were vaporized. However as the camera pulls back, although the shack is on fire, the structure is still standing. One can only gather from this that the building code in the Maldives must be especially stringent.

Have to retain your sense of humor. I am sure I must have seen a worst science fiction movie, but I can't remember when.
