Geoflicks are regular theatrical movies that are focused on geologic events, usually some type of disaster.  Some examples are: 2012, Volcano, Dantes Peak, The Core, and Jurassic Park.  This is a web page with a few more ideas: http://reelgeology.blogspot.com/ .  Id prefer you select a move that deals with some kind of geohazards like an earthquake, tsunami, or volcano. The SciFi channel has tons of really good (bad) geoflicks, and you could probably write a novel on one of those.  Most geoflicks take great liberties with the basic science that forms the basis for the plot.  What I hope to see from this assignment is that youve learned enough to recognize where these movies drift from reality and move towards fiction.  This is where you get to show me that you can apply what youve learned in this class.  I also hope this will give you some self-confidence in your understanding of this subject.
