For the past year (maybe closer to two), I've made a "project" for myself to collect and watch nearly the entire genre of disaster/apocalypse films, as many as I could find (most "zombie" films not included).
Here's the list of those I collected so far.

An - indicates... not so much.

@Fishrrman EDIT: I need to read better... you did mark the better movies with an *.... so sorry for missing that... wasted ping but my pride prevents me from unpinging ya... giving ya the oppertunity to say, "It is right there dummy".
EDIT 2: I have seen The Last Child, it is pretty good. I will give "Children of Men" a try. Thanks again.

The family and me watched a Christian lite movie tonight that was a tear jerker (I just had something in my eye time and time again)...
Sweet movie about how a family went through some tough times... Lost of wife, child with failing liver. Movie called
"Ordinary Angels"It starred one of my favorite new actors, this time playing a real person... Alan Ritchson who also starred in the series "Reacher" that most of us loved. He still plays a tough guy, but one facing a world where he can't fight a winning fight by himself without help.
