The China Syndrome

[NakaNaka]

Just saw this movie for the first time a couple of days ago. Our professor posted streaming clip of it on our Blackboard site (he has several movies on there, I'm not sure how) and I was floored by how good it was. A couple late 70's cliches but a really great movie. Michael Douglas is so young and so good. What did people think of it then/now? If you haven't seen it, you should rent it.

I like how it almost happened right after the movie was released.

Great movie and Jack Lemmon is also great in it but Nuclear power is used all around the world and is usually pretty safe unless your in Russia or 3 mile island.

PS: 3 mile Island never would have occur expect for some Homer interfering in how the plant operates. It was a self sufficient plant.

I didn't think it was as anti-nuclear as anti-evil business. But it depends how you look at it.

How would I go about streaming it?

Unless you are in my class, which you obviously aren't, then you need to go to Blockbuster.

You need to find a copy of Network - you'll love it.
