neutral · AI labelView post →The Poseidon Adventure is terrible as a movie but excellent as a documentary about the kind of person who will get everyone killed in an actual emergency.
negative · AI labelView post →Gene Hackman’s performance in The Poseidon Adventure is the gold standard for Actors Giving It Their All In A Movie Where They Didn’t Have To.
positive · AI labelView post →You know what I’ve been thinking about today? The Poseidon Adventure. Legit the only movie I’ve ever seen where a fat woman’s weight is neither mocked nor moralized, and she gets to be a damn hero. Man. What a low bar.
positive · AI labelView post →The Poseidon Adventure is a New Year's Eve movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Cat review #25: The Poseidon Adventure. Name a more light-hearted movie set on New Year's Day. That's right, you can't. Seems my cats really enjoy watching bad things happen to good people, the feline freaks. Finley 8/10, Paiten 7/10.
positive · AI labelView post →Sex workers on film, NYE edition. The incredible Stella Stevens in The Poseidon Adventure (1973). 💋
neutral · AI labelView post →“The Poseidon Adventure” was the “ Phantom Menace” of my generation. A demonstrably meh movie that every kid who saw it in 1972 thought (and still do) that was one of the great films of all time.
negative · AI labelView post →My favourite Gene Hackman movie is The Poseidon Adventure. There are plenty of others that were better written/directed, but I can't think of a better example of Hackman raising the quality level of a movie by the sheer strength of his performance. He turns a good disaster film into a classic.
positive · AI labelView post →Technically, The Poseidon Adventure is a New Years movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →[RIP Morton Künstler, 97, historical artist, also known for the Poseidon Adventure movie poster, Mad, and men’s magazines. Thanks to his painting, Brand of the Werewolf was the bestselling Doc Savage paperback (and most disappointing, when readers discovered it contained no werewolves).]

positive · AI labelView post →I do the same thing, but with The Poseidon Adventure (1972). If you start it at 11:35:16 pm, the New Year's countdown in the movie matches real time with the ship's horn blowing at midnight, and then shortly after the ship gets capsized by the giant tidal wave. 🥳🕛🚢 🌊

positive · AI labelView post →What are your fave New Year’s Eve films - even if they’re kitsch - like my favorite, “The Poseidon Adventure” (couple years ago, AI’d a 1972-version of huz & me into an imaginary scene from the film - looks like a great NY Eve party?!)

neutral · AI labelView post →Veronica Hamel first entered the limelight as a fashion model. Interestingly enough, in her first film role in the 1971 film, “Klute”, Hamel played the role of a model! She later played a supporting role in the disaster movie, “Beyond The Poseidon Adventure” (1979). #VeronicaHamel
neutral · AI labelView post →Alien Resurrection is an adventure. It’s almost a heist movie but ultimately it owes a lot of its DNA to movies like The Poseidon Adventure. Plucky band of misfits stuck on a doomed ship. The set pieces are fun. The cast are great. Brad Dourif ffs. 6/
neutral · AI labelView post →Is it time for my annual campaign to get “The Poseidon Adventure” recognized as a Christmas movie, or is it too soon?
neutral · AI labelView post →⚓️Mail Call: Finally completed the Dell installments of the PT-73 crew, three from the show and one based on the 1964 feature film. Enjoyed the reruns as a kid and had zero clue that Ernest Borgnine starred in films outside of the show until I saw “The Poseidon Adventure”.🤣
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't know. Maybe it's dumb, but my personal favorite Gene Hackman film is The Poseidon Adventure. Feel free to tell me I have questionable taste. #TCMParty
positive · AI labelView post →One of my favorites is The Poseidon Adventure from 1972. Many young girls got a crush on him from that movie. :)
positive · AI labelView post →Favorite film for each year of the 1970s: 1970: Dodes'ka-den 1971: Harold & Maude 1972: The Poseidon Adventure 1973: Enter the Dragon 1974: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 1975 and all-time #1 personal favorite: Jaws 1976: Mikey and Nicky 1977: Star Wars 1978: Dawn of the Dead 1979: The Muppet Movie 🎥
positive · AI labelView post →This is from the movie, The Poseidon Adventure. Notice in the background, those water chutes. That must be what they used to create the waves.. My guess.
neutral · AI labelView post →I taught a session before (actually... there are people who chat who have been in a version of this session!) on thinking of making a 'movie poster' of your manuscript and imagining the advertising line. "Hell, upside down" for the Poseidon Adventure, for example, tells a lot! #kidlitchat
neutral · AI labelView post →Doctor Odyssey is talking to Sgt. Grant about her fear of boats and I feel like "I got literally Poseidon Adventure'd, like from the movie THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE" should be a lifetime pass
neutral · AI labelView post →The Poseidon Adventure episode of Disaster Girls is a favorite for several reasons, but I’m still proudest of my “what is the movie really about” analysis (it’s about the Death Of God) inspired entirely by Preacher Gene Hackman (tw: outdated terminology for sex workers)
positive · AI labelView post →#AllAlbums #MusicChallenge Day 27: Album I wish I had a physical copy of: John Williams - ‘The Poseidon Adventure’ (1972) Unreleased when the movie came out, then finally released in the 90s…but only on CD. I long for a vinyl release of this epic soundtrack.

unlabelledView post →I spent this weekend watching Towering Inferno, The Poseidon Adventure and (the extremely underrated) Beyond the Poseidon Adventure, and my main takeaway is that Irwin Allen became a film maker because he was born too early to be a level designer.
