Impact (on Prime , Seven).
What a lot of gobbledigook and pseudosciencific doggy doos ....
Lets see the moon is hit by an object .... OK .... it happens .
The impactor is a brown dwarf or bit of remnant from a collision between two brown dwarfs in deep space somewhere .... yeh r - i - g - h - t  .... no one has mentioned Nibiru .... well at least that' is a plus.....
The bit of brown dwarf has imbedded itself inside the moon .... is a supermagnetic piece of hypermass , a little bit has been found on earth after a fragment hit , it's fist size and let the hypermass fragment can be lifted..... um .... two brown dwarfs wouldn't collide , they merge and you would wind up with a small dim red dwarf ..... these Hollywood story writers are scientific ignoramuses and really to pick up a phone and talk to some real astronomers or physicists and get their details sorted ....
Top it off with moon's mass being greater than earth's after (I think that was mentioned) , and the moon now has a huge magnetic field .... everyone is going to die in 48 hrs ..... yet the moon still orbits earth .... LOL
I passed up watching Midsummer Murders or the chinese slice and dice called Hero on SBS to watch this dribble .... 
Synopis .... not enough people are going to see 2012 .... put a earth destruction movie on and drum up some more ticket sales .....

Oh and of cause the yanks think they can save the day by attacking the moon with the earth's full compliment of nukes ....
But wait .... there is more .... they build a super EM weapon , go to the moon (in under 16 days) , the astronauts are on suicide mission , and they make the moon's core supermagnetic with the same polarity as the brown dwarf inside it (from the impact) and we are all saved ....
and live happily ever after of cause.....
At least there is one good movie I can watch tonight (later on NBN) , The Unforgiven . So the night's not a total loss.

I thought it was good that Prince Phillip is in the movie (James Cromwell). I'll always now associate him with that line from The Queen: "Move over cabbage !"

Mistake 1:They are using telescopes to look at a meteor shower 
Mistake 2:The KT asteroid was 8.5 Km big

Stematil needed
Hi Ian & All,
I bailed out after the first twenty minutes because I discovered we didn't have enough Stematil in the house to continue safely ...
Instead, I watched a chick-flick DVD with my 18yo daughter, but when that finished, Impact was still on so ...
Here I am.
Best,
Les D

I thought it was awesome. The finest C7 has to offer. 4 minutes of film, 6 minutes of commercials, bad science, meaningless jargon, handsome brainiac with dead wife, big b****d love interest, snivelling, whining children, cranky grandad, weeping hausfrau, and a machine filled with neon tubes a la STOS 1967. Oh and a blown up moon!
Magnificent.

Come on you clowns, it was a TV show, light entertainment (very light on the entertainment side) not a doco. Better than watching the soaps and more police stories.

No it wasn't .... I was definitely dudded by this one .... what a waste of time .... Midsummer Murders would have definitely been the better choice last night .... must check iView and see if I can still see last night's episode.
Hell , I could have watched Stargate Universe ep09 (I'd just torrented it yesterday avo).
Or I could have iViewed Torchwood from last week (ABC is still bad here .... definitely the transmitter).

I agree with you Doug. Any respite from those police stories and sickeningly sanctimonious police characters is welcome in my book, even a cra$%y film like Impact
