I loved a lot of these. The original airport was excellent and spawned off the Airplane spoof which was maybe the best alltime spinoff spoof.

But I think my favorite would have to be Day After Tomorrow.
Great cast that played all their parts extremely well. Not particularly believable but for me the science was excellent.

They had a cool show on AMC yesterday about the "disaster movie" genre.
