Nov 18, 2008 - Some of the silent films I've seen before had like subtitles.This one hasn't got sound at all, how are we supposed to know whats going on? And how come the White House is in San Francisco when it's really in New York?It doesn't make sense!

Nov 18, 2008 - It's tough to argue with your logic ronnieknotts.

Nov 18, 2008 - who ever thought that was the white house, i bought the book on the disaster and i believe that is the city hall?

Nov 18, 2008 - One of the best originals of a movie quake I've ever seen and not one bit of CGI. My late husband met Clark Gable and said he was the best person you could ever run into.

Nov 18, 2008 - From this movie, I can imagine how terrible it was in the earthquake in China.

Nov 18, 2008 - wow, since that wasn't the big one were waiting for, i wonder how much worse will the big one be, it most likely may be stronger then the one that really hit san fransico long ago before this movie came out...

Nov 18, 2008 - For the time this was a great movie. mostly forgotten these days. Many new shots were used in this movie which made way for other films. A great film.....

Nov 18, 2008 - If you watch the whole movie they mention that its almost 5am and they are still at this celebration. So the timing is right on.

Nov 18, 2008 - Very cool how they showed the old City Hall crumbling away. All the modern CGI sucks butt nowadays now THESE were movies

Nov 18, 2008 - Clark Gable never looked lovelier! Jeanette MacDonald belting out a few catchy tunes and the ORIGINAL disaster movie! Could anyone ask for more?
