Completely forgot about Godzilla Minus one. A recent gem but I'm not sure I'd watch it again so soon..

If we're including kaiju films then Minus One is my #1 pick by far; absolutely amazing film, from the poignant human story to the epic effects sequences, it's a masterpiece through and through.

I'm almost sure it's not supernatural right? I mean they don't delve into the science but the nukes cause... oh wait, he has nuke breath lol. This is stretching it but I'm let it slide. It's definitely a disaster film in my book. 



Not all are strictly disaster but are tied to it enough I'd say.

The Wandering Earth
The Wandering Earth II (Prequel)
World War Z
Chain Reaction
The Arrival
12 Monkeys
Sphere



Twister is not an amazing film or anything like that but seeing it as my first 4DX film recently was a great experience that was completely worth the price. Though it'll be tough to find other films that will work as well in that format so I dunno when I'll see a film in it again.

Was it Twisters the sequel? Main gimmick being wind blown in your direction? Would you watch a horror film in it?

It was the 1996 original and there is that of course though the main part was the chairs shaking you about which got pretty intense at points, particularly during the climax. And getting jolted during a jump scare could be neat but could also be annoying if it's a horror film that uses cheap jump scares so it would depend on what film it is.

Hopefully not the Human Centipede 😆

Nope but I will now, even when I'm not soul crushingly depressed I'm pretty jaded. Takes a lot to shock me. I wanna see that film the substance but this will suffice.
