Anyone else see it? I do have to say it was prob one of the most retarted movies I've ever seen. Only thing good in it was the special effects.

Why is it called tourist season, if we can't shoot at them? -
I saw most of this on an airplane. It's almost bad enough to buy the DVD and have a dumb movie party.
I loved the errors in scale (statue of liberty totally under water, which then becomes a 30-foot high slow moving wave going down the street, etc.)

The one thing I picked up on was the people using their cell phones in the libary after the wave went though Manhatten and their was no power

Haven't seen the movie, but the answer to that inquiery depends on how long after the wave hit. Do you honestly think cell service would immeidately go out with the power? They have battery backups, power generators and all sorts of stuff backing up the power for cell towers, central offices and all switcing locations. Trust me, I work for a telco. It would take weeks, if not months, before cell service would be lost.Originally posted by GT98

Have you ever tried to use call phones during or after a power outage? I got the opportunity during last years huge US power outage. They'd have been lucky to reach someone on the other side of the room

Well if they had 20 feet of water over them, I would expect them to go down instantiaously. Last time I checked batteries and seawater when't a good comboOriginally posted by Jammrock

BTW whats the avg range for a Cell Tower anyway?Why is it called tourist season, if we can't shoot at them?Comment

Glad to see I'm not the only one that was rolling my eyes during the movie. Alot of things made no sense.
@GT98, I'm no expert on cell tower range, but I'm sure it varies depending on how high up it is. I would wager ~ 2-5 miles coverage diameter per tower. Even that might be a bit on the high side.Go Bunny GO!
