The 90s had a lot of competing films. You had Armageddon and Deep Impact, then you had another pair of disaster movies about volcanoes, Dante's Peak and Volcano.
I've grown to prefer Dante's Peak over the years. Several scenes from both movies stand out to me. Both movies have pretty good sound tracks and visuals.
Volcano
Going into the creepy as fuck LA water ducts and and having to flee a oncoming wall of superheated volcanic gasses/magma. Literal stuff of nightmares.
Stan's sacrifice to save the conductor. Stuff of nightmares. One of the worst deaths I've seen in a blockbuster.
Dante's Peak
The couple going into the hot springs. Really fucking bad way to go.
The volcanology team having similar chemistry like the tornado chasers in Twister.
The boat beginning to sink into a lake of acid. Stuff of nightmares.
Dante's Peak exploding. Holy shit.
The one really dumb and unfortunate thing about this move - Driving the truck over the lava and not dying horribly.
