    Addie! Thanks so much for doing this one. I see "Armageddon" out the wazoo; every corner I turn, it's there; every reactor is doing it. It is an entertaining film, but "Deep Impact" is a film that tugs at the heart. It's warm, thoughtful, and serious. It's so overlooked by reactors. I guess if you like wham-bam, then it might not be your cup of tea; but I find this film emotionally compelling and something that I could watch repeatedly. Kudos to Mimi Leder, the director, for crafting this wonderful film.

    It's weird how often two similar movies come out near each other like this. "Armageddon" and "Deep Impact," "K-9" and "Turner and Hooch," "Volcano" and "Dante's Peak," and more recently "The Equalizer" and "John Wick." It's just a really interesting phenomenon.

      Armageddon and Deep Impact came out in 1998, just a few years after the comet Shoemaker Levy 9 collided with Jupiter in July, 1994. That was the first time that anyone witnessed a planet-comet collision, and it generated much subsequent discussion about what can conceivably be done, if something similar were to be on a crash course with the earth. Armageddon and Deep Impact both came out in the midst of those discussions, so in the context of the time, it was not too surprising that both films appeared at about the same time.

    P.S. The title "Deep Impact" has multiple meanings in this movie. Obviously it refers to the physical impact of the comet hitting earth, but it also refers to the psychological/emotional impact on society and people's lives. That's why the movie shows more of the "humanity side" as you put it (around 29:00 - 29:30), than Armageddon did.

    Hurts to watch the wave destroy NYC with the Twin Towers intact, knowing what's happening on 9/11, just two years later.
    (I'm tired of watching NYC get it. Why not destroy Chicago for a change? I know, I know, nobody would gaf, but still.)

It expects the audience to kind of just accept some silly things, but once you get over those humps, it's actually pretty great. Feels like a sub-par project someone was kind of handed and they somehow dug their way in and out of it with skilled storytelling. Lol

  • @FrancisXLord
    @FrancisXLord 7 месяцев назад +11

    Through 1997 one of the big news stories doing the rounds was the idea that an extinction level event could happen at any moment, and the theories of how it might dealt with were explored. Really freaked me out as a kid. Responding to that two studios decided to make films that used that concept. The first one out was Deep Impact, about 5 weeks before Armageddon. Didn't make as much money as Armageddon but didn't cost as much - wasn't full of bankable named stars.
    The difference in tone between the two films is startling. I always preferred the more serious dramatic tone of Deep Impact over the kind of tongue in cheek humour and gung-honess of Armageddon. I remember thinking, when I saw Armageddon, 'Why can't they take it seriously?' I took the threat seriously and I was pissed, at the time, that Armageddon didn't really. Felt that would lead to people not taking it seriously... Now question is, do you take it seriously? Was I right? Are we ignoring the chance of saving the human race because we saw Armageddon, so don't take the threat necessarily seriously enough to invest any time and effort in space projectile monitoring?
    For the record this was directed by one of the very few female directors working in Hollywood at the time, Mimi Leder. She also directed the first Dreamworks feature film, The Peacemaker (I believe Deep Impact was the second). She would go on to direct Pay It Forward (2000) with Helen Hunt (Twister), Haley Joel Osment (The Sixth Sense) and Kevin Spacey (think you know him). If you've not seen it, add it to your list. The term 'pay it forward' was coined by that film, if you've ever heard that expression.
