  1. Brett Says:

    I’d have to go with The Day After Tomorrow, not for believability but simple for the awe factor of the disaster scenes.

  2. Jeff Hill Says:

    The best natural disaster would have to be “Twister”. I would like to have the blu-ray one.. Please

  3. Teresa W. Says:

    My favorite was Twister and I’m only interested in the dvd box set.

  4. Amber G Says:

    I love The Day After Tomorrow too because Emmy Rossum was great in it, as was Denis Quaid!

  5. Carol Says:

    I really thought the Perfect Storm was well-made, I’ve watched it a number of times. The Blu-Ray version would be great, but I’d be happy with either.

  6. Marilyn Wons Says:

    I have Blu-ray playback capabilities. The best natural disasaster fillm ever made was “The Perfect Storm”, in my opinion.

  7. Anne Says:

    “The Day After Tomorrow” had great special effects, but “The Perfect Storm” was more realistic, and therefore, had a greater heart-pounding effect. Thanks for the chance to win “How the Earth Was Made,” either in DVD or Blu-ray. Not picky here!

    I’d have to cast my vote for “The Perfect Storm” – I was on the edge of my seat for most of that film, and it really did justice to Sebastian Junger’s gripping account. I don’t yet have a blu-ray player, so I’m just in it for the regular DVD set — thanks!
