About an hour ago there was a massive 7.9 quake in that same area.

Hold the camera steady!!! You would think they were in a boat for god's sake. With a volcano erupting nearby too.

I completely agree! Furthermore why is the director IN FRAME at the end? You would think that Hollywood could do a better job with CGI nowadays. I though I was going to see the boom mic any second too!

Fucking amateur! Those guys should be done professionally; seriously.

The stars are right!!

Doesn't "Caustic plume" sound dirty?

I'd be nervous that the next eruption would come from below the boat. They'd be "done".

I don't think they had enough carbon credits to perform that eruption. Somebody call the EPA!

to shebulba ?

everyone knows you try to navigate into the eye of the structure, where it is calm, my advice, go right in
