    • Trivia
      Twentieth Century Fox invited a group of scientists to preview this movie, to test their reactions to the "science" used in it. None of the scientists were impressed with what they saw, although most conceded that the movie was enjoyable nonsense.
    • Goofs
      It's stated that the temperature that froze the gas lines was -150 degrees F but when the pilot opens the door you can see his breath. At 90 degrees F below zero your breath will freeze and fall to the ground.
    • Quotes

      Jack Hall: [on Sam failing calculus] I'm not angry. I'm disappointed.

      Sam Hall: Do you wanna hear my side of it?

      Jack Hall: Sam, how can there be two sides?

      Sam Hall: Hey, look, I got every question right on the final and the only reason why Mr. Spengler failed me was because I didn't write out the solutions.

      Jack Hall: Why not?

      Sam Hall: I do them in my head.

      Jack Hall: Did you tell him that?

      Sam Hall: I did. He didn't believe me. He said if he couldn't do them in his head then I must be cheating.

      Jack Hall: Well, that's ridiculous! How can he fail you for being smarter than he is?

      Sam Hall: That's what I said.

      Jack Hall: [smirks] You did? How'd he take it?

      Sam Hall: He flunked me, remember?

    My favorite disaster movie.
    Yes yes, plot holes blah blah, this movie is so fun to watch if you don't pretend you're a know-it-all scientist. If you are a a scientist, it's probably not for you.
