Please google, “scientific mistakes in Armageddon”. There are over 160 (you spotted the most glaringly obvious but there are a LOT more)! And that’s just the actual scientific errors, not the logical incongruities/bizarre decisions which make no sense (say training oil drillers to be astronauts instead of the other fing way around. I don’t pretend to be either an oil driller or an astronaut but I’m pretty certain which one’s more difficult). I don’t know which lists of great 90s films you’re looking at but this film’s not usually on them at all. For example: Pulp Fiction, The Matrix, Terminator 2, Jurassic Park, the Shawshank Redemption, Goodfellas, the Silence of the Lambs, Schindler’s List, Titantic, Seven, Forrest Gump, the Sixth Sense, Fight Club, the Big Lebowski, Reservoir Dogs, Trainspotting, Good Will Hunting, Fargo, American Beauty, Groundhog Day. That’s 20 films from the 90s picking randomly and in no specific order which are widely regarded as better than this one. I could’ve easily done another 20 without mentioning this film.
obviously His fondness for thgis movie is his opinion, though I’m sure many here agree with him as I do. I agree some the movies you named could be considered better than this you named Titanic andf Good Will Huntingand I’m almost positive the later would not win a pop[ularity contest against Armagddon.
Alaso, dont take things so personal. Canuk’s comment really didn’t need a reply whose purpose was only to disagree wit an opinion
