Question 1
0.5 / 0.5 pts
To do this lab practical, you will need the background provided by the plate tectonic, volcano, and
faulting lectures and readings to fully appreciate and match the bad movie to the reason why the movie
displays bad earth science. Because the questions are pretty easy (I hope), this lab practical is worth 1.5
points.
You will need to match the trailer to the explanation as to why the premise of the movie (or detail shown
in a portion of a clip) reflects the poor understanding of science by the movie makers.

stupid do they think the audience truly is? Maybe I shouldn't ask that question.
Question 2
0.5 / 0.5 pts
that volcanic activity is found most commonly in plate tectonic settings of extension and compression. Here are 4 links to trailers of different disaster movies, of varying quality. One of these depicts an
historical event that actually occurred. The other three are fictional. You can pause this lab practical and
do research on your own to determine which disaster movie is an attempt to portray a real event? Earthquake -
