Zhilikam t'Terrupik Koshvar-Dvuperuvlar

As with all advanced cultures, the Vulcans have a great wealth of multimedia, but they now have nothing like Terran disaster movies, although that genre was once known before Surak. Terran movies of the 20th and 21st Centuries C.E., from Earthquake, The Towering Inferno, Meteor and The Swarm up to Dante's Peak, Twister, Armageddon, Deep Impact, The Day After Tomorrow, 2012 and San Andreas, have entertained countless beings since they were made. The fight for survival against great odds has entertained beings across the Alpha and Beta Quadrants, since every culture has experiences with disasters. These movies include disasters involving earthquakes, floods, tornados, hurricanes, volcanic eruptions, airliner accidents, reactor accidents, meteors, comets, tidal waves, insect swarms and other catastrophic events.

Below you will find names, places and terminology you might find associated with Terran disaster movies. (Names are listed in pure alphabetical order by title/rank, first name then last name, since names are sorted using the Vulcan standard.) This page does not include movies based on The Poseidon Adventure, RMS Titanic or Die Hard (each has its own page), or alien attacks, zombie apocalypses, monsters such as King Kong, Godzilla, Rodan or the things in Super 8, Monster or Cloverfield, or the Jaws series, although we have included the Sharknado movies.
