"I don't wanna miss a thing..." Yes, that is the song you've heard over and over and over on the radio. Just like "Every night in my dreams, I see you, I feel you..." It was just crazy. But one thing is for sure, you hear the "I don't wanna miss a thing..." more then the "Every night in my dreams..." now. Why is that, was "Armageddon" a better movie? Or is it just simply a better song? Anyway, we are not here to analyze the songs but I must note that although songs can not make or break a film, but it makes the movie so much more touching and gets you much more invloved. Umm...okay, off track. Well, this film came out just alittle after the similar "Deep Impact." If "Deep Impact" was for the thinking man/woman, and the new "Space Cowboys" is for the elders, then "Armageddon" is for the MTV generation. With faster editing, crazier music, and a heart throb like Ben Affleck, you can be sure that the producers intended to target the younger generation. The film has a similar goal as "Deep." Essentially, you have an asteroid heading towards earth, and people go up to try to stop it. But just to keep alittle of the mystery, I won't tell you who dies at the end. What I will tell you is this, when film studios competed like "A Bug's Life" and "Antz", "A Thin Red Line" and "Saving Private Ryan", and "Deep Impact" and "Armageddon" you know who wins? Us, yes, the audience. But I still have this one doubt in my mind, was Matthew McConaughey in the previews? This film receives 4 go's for it's entertainment value.
