After the film was released, the Nuclear Community criticized it. Basically calling it fear porn. 12 days later at Three Mile Island Pennsylvania, an accident that happens due to training neglect that causes toxic pollutants to be leaked threatening the environment... this resulted in the end of the US's march towards full, nuclear power.

I mean seriously... what are the odds? Like how fucking perfect of timing to kill the US's effort to be completely energy independent.
No coincidence's people. It is very likely the CIA used their mockingbird powers to set all of this into motion to secure our dependency on oil.
Interesting.
All I know is every movie has a story line that won't ironically be my end as well.
This is actually my earliest childhood memory..... Not to sound like a Guns & Roses song. I remember being woken up in the middle of the night and taken to my grandmother's house bc of an emergency. I was only a year and a 1/2.
