I’d have to go with The Day After Tomorrow, not for believability but simple for the awe factor of the disaster scenes.
July 17th, 2009 at 7:22 am
The best natural disaster would have to be “Twister”. I would like to have the blu-ray one.. Please
July 17th, 2009 at 8:22 am
My favorite was Twister and I’m only interested in the dvd box set.
July 17th, 2009 at 8:29 am
I love The Day After Tomorrow too because Emmy Rossum was great in it, as was Denis Quaid!
July 17th, 2009 at 9:24 am
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.
July 17th, 2009 at 9:40 am
I have Blu-ray playback capabilities. The best natural disasaster fillm ever made was “The Perfect Storm”, in my opinion.
July 17th, 2009 at 10:01 am
All I can think of is Dante’s Peak (hubby thought it was great) me ……just so so lol
Thanks and if I were so lucky to win, I would choose the DVD version
July 17th, 2009 at 10:14 am
If epidemics count as a natural disaster i\’d vote for Children of Men.
July 17th, 2009 at 12:13 pm
blu ray…the towering inferno
July 17th, 2009 at 1:43 pm
Love these kind of shows, gives you perspective!
July 17th, 2009 at 2:10 pm
The best natural disaster film is The Day After Tomorrow because of the cool special effects. Blu-ray
July 17th, 2009 at 4:53 pm
Twister, it set the bar.
July 17th, 2009 at 7:34 pm

TWISTER
July 18th, 2009 at 1:00 am
There are many movies that have natural disasters, but few are devoted to that as the basis. Twister was the first one that came to mind. The DVD set would be great to win.
July 18th, 2009 at 7:14 am
The Day After Tomorrow, dvd set please, thanks.
July 18th, 2009 at 7:24 am
The Day After Tomorrow, I have a bluray player

The Perfect Storm. DVD set – no blu-ray.
July 18th, 2009 at 11:00 am
Deep Impact, you gotta love cosmic crunchers. Blu-Ray user.
July 18th, 2009 at 2:29 pm
The Day After Tomorrow – DVD
July 18th, 2009 at 3:19 pm
“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!
July 18th, 2009 at 5:22 pm
Twister!
And I don’t have blu-ray…only DVD for me, thanks
July 18th, 2009 at 7:00 pm
twister is the only one that really comes to mind. DVD

Krakatoa, East of Java-an oldie, but a goodie. Thanks!
July 20th, 2009 at 11:08 am

July 20th, 2009 at 11:16 am
The Perfect Storm – DVD
July 20th, 2009 at 12:47 pm
I love outlandish disaster movies so I’ll say The Day After Tomorrow.
July 20th, 2009 at 4:49 pm
I am going to have to go with Armageddon. I love that movie and usually watch it anytime that I see it on TV.
July 20th, 2009 at 5:26 pm
I really liked Armageddon. I always watch it whenever it is on. I would like the Blu-Ray version.
(Please delete my previous comment where I forgot to specify blu-ray or DVD)
July 20th, 2009 at 7:11 pm
I would go with Earthquake 1974. I have Blu-ray
July 21st, 2009 at 11:50 am
The Perfect Storm – DVD box set
July 21st, 2009 at 4:17 pm
The Towering Inferno-DVD boxed set please
July 22nd, 2009 at 7:43 pm
Dante’s Peak. Not very realistic (you cannot drive through 2,000 degree lava) but very entertaining. If I do win this DVD set, I am going right out to buy a Blu-Ray player, so sign me up for Blu-Ray. Thank you for the great give-away.
July 22nd, 2009 at 9:48 pm
Twister!!!!!!!!!
July 23rd, 2009 at 5:56 am

The Day After Tomorrow and An Inconvenient Truth are my favorites. Thank you.
July 25th, 2009 at 8:43 am
I’d have to go with others and say “Twister”. It shows how raw and powerful tornadoes are. You never really understand how devastating a tornado is until you actually have to survive through one. Been there done that.
July 26th, 2009 at 9:51 am
The Day After Tomorrow…DVD please.
July 28th, 2009 at 7:22 am
I hate to agree, but the Perfect Storm was great. I would love the DVD box set. Thanks.

August 13th, 2009 at 3:15 pm
My other favorite disaster movie is Twister because I live in Texas and we get tornados all the time. My boyfriend likes to go storm hunting and we’d love to win the dvd.
August 13th, 2009 at 5:39 pm
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!
August 13th, 2009 at 7:57 pm
I have always enjoyed Twister. I would be interested in the DVD set. Thanks!!
August 13th, 2009 at 11:55 pm
The Day After Tomorrow
August 14th, 2009 at 3:09 am
The Day After Tomorrow is the best movie.
August 14th, 2009 at 5:11 am
The Day After Tomorrow, although that was more of a theory, hehe. I really want to see this!!! DVD for me please.
August 14th, 2009 at 6:54 am
Day After Tomorrow is the disaster movie I like. Would love to win this prize in DVD.
August 14th, 2009 at 9:30 am

I\’m in for the DVD set, no blu-ray here yet!
August 14th, 2009 at 12:40 pm
The Perfect Storm DVD.
August 14th, 2009 at 2:28 pm

August 14th, 2009 at 7:59 pm
I thought “Perfect Storm” was great. Tense all the way through and very believable. Thanks.
August 14th, 2009 at 9:28 pm
Best film is the Day After Tomorrow because of the cool special effects although I do like the cheesy Volcano because they shot over by where I live
August 14th, 2009 at 9:41 pm

August 15th, 2009 at 4:15 am
I liked The Perfect Storm (years later, as an adult, I read the book) and I’m interested in the boxed DVD set!
August 15th, 2009 at 5:18 am
I updated my profile (I think). I hope Armagedeon counts because it could happen. Thank you
August 15th, 2009 at 7:18 am

August 15th, 2009 at 8:50 am

Twister comes to mind because I live in a tornado area. I don\’t have blu-ray capability yet so the DVD\’s would be great.
August 15th, 2009 at 2:42 pm
TWISTER the best…Blu-ray YES!!

August 15th, 2009 at 7:04 pm
Considering I live REALLY close to the San Andreas fault line, the first one that came to mind was Earthquake. =) And I would like the DVD set if I win.
August 15th, 2009 at 8:12 pm
I’d say the best is Twister. Yes I have Blu-Ray
August 15th, 2009 at 10:09 pm
… I always liked –When Time Ran Out…– which was produced by the Master of Disaster: Irwin Allen. What can I say, it was the \’70\’s and I was a kid.
August 15th, 2009 at 11:23 pm
I like “Earthquake” with Charlton Heston and George Kennedy, They installed huge bass speakers in the theater that actually made the whole place vibrate. Pretty scary for this California girl. I would like the box set, If I win.
