May 12, 2026 · 37 min · 23 segments
The Great Volcano Movie War of 1997 brought us both Volcano (obviously), which we've covered before, and Dante's Peak, starring Pierce Brosnan and Linda Hamilton and, if you ask us, is the superior…
So this is, this is the other, this is the other side of the coin in that for, for your Deep Impact/Armageddon comparisons, in 1997 you had Volcano and Dante's Peak, which I'm positive had to be two competing studios that knew somebody else was making a volcano movie, and they were like, "Fuck that, we're gonna make a volcano movie."
I, I hate that we don't do that anymore, but, uh, we had it good in '97, 'cause you got Volcano and Dante's Peak.
And I will say to you that in this Pier- this Pierce Brosnan, Linda Hamilton, uh, disaster movie is my preference if I had to choose between Volcano and Dante's Peak.
