From East coast politics to West coast fault lines, we slowly ooze (like…lava?) over to our next film of discussion: the OTHER volcanic disaster flick of ’97 – aptly named “Volcano”. My lovely wife (and co-host of “Below Freezing”) Melissa St. John returns to avenge her dignity (we talk about “Dante’s Peak”…it’s a thing) by diving right into the tar pits of this movie: the old-man strength of TLJ, the not-so-good special effects, and the stacked ensemble (which the movie didn’t deserve). Also, Flipper dies, Ellen comes out, Sheryl Crow takes us down a winding road, and some hometown love to Ken Griffey, Jr.
