They Called This a Movie Episode 80 - The Core (2003)

Earth has a deadline. On this episode of They Called This a Movie, we trade our real-world hellscape for a barely-researched hellscape, as we reminisce to the early 2000's, when disaster movies were a thing for a solid half decade. Imagine Armageddon. Now, imagine if they shot that rocket straight into the ground, and that's what you get with The Core. Join us from a safe distance as we discuss this product-of-its-time film. We touch upon everything from the questionable science to the internet's new favorite daddy, Stanley Tucci, to our thoughts on Hillary Swank. We even pitch crossover films involving Avatar, Pacific Rim, and Godzilla. You can find us on iTunes, Stitcher, and Google Play Podcasts. If you want to see more from us, check out the website and follow us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.  We are now part of Geek Vibes Nation, so be sure to check out their website and to look for us on their future podcast shows. Find us on Bluesky, Instagram, and Threads @TCTAMPod and on TikTok @theycalledthisamovie.Our theme music was written and performed by Dave Katusa.
