Independence Day producer Dean Devlin made his directorial debut this week with Geostorm, a cautionary story about over-reliance on weather-control satellites and self-driving cars, and other issues that speak so deeply to our current moment. More to the point, it’s about floods and ice storms and all other manner of splashy natural disasters, and that’s why we’re devoting our next episode to the history of the disaster movie: natural disasters, like Earthquake; man-made disasters, like The Towering Inferno; dumb disasters, like The Core.
In Worth Mentioning, Tim has deja vu while discussing Happy Death Day while Carrie and Rob catch up on the Netflix streaming movie, Sleeping with Other People.
