Actually, I noticed the map she was carrying. It was a standard sectional aeronautical chart for the Los Angeles area, the kind used by all pilots (private, airliner, or what have you).

Cheap plug: And here's MY review of The Core!
:-) I let everyone have a crack at it. It makes me feel special.

But whay would NASA give them a map of LA?

Do aeronotical maps show concrete rivers? Could'nt they land on a highway or something? That way they don't have to avoid the bridges.



Liked your review tracer.

Three things:

1.In one comic where the hulk is battling Wolverine it was revealed that the hulks invulnerability is not because he get stronger as he gets hurt, it is that he has a extreemly fast healing rate. Almost instantaneous. I can't rember the issue.

2. The Unobtanium was mentioned early in the film that it turns heat and pressure into energy. So Keyes was just repeating what was mentioned earlier.

The thing is, as they go closer to the surface would not the pressure become lessened? So the emount of energy being produced by the hull would lessen and they would slow down. Right? (not counting the whole constant pressure=no energy thing)

3. They are shown coming up near Hawaii. Hawaii is right over a hotspot on the earth. Actually it is a result of one.

One theory i have heard is that the magma from the hotspot originates from near the outer core boundry. So they could possibly follow the magma as it goes up. Other theories of the origin of Hot spots is just a weakining of the crust there for some reason.

The one thing that got me there was that at the begining they mentioned that Vergil couldn't turn for the life of it. But as it was traveling up the magma flow it turned better than any submarine i know. I guess all those lost sections made it harder to turn.
