What are your top ten disaster films?

Need help remembering some?

...they made a sequel to 'Poseidon Adventure'? How does that work? Does the boat flip even more upside down?

I remember thinking 'Andromeda Strain' was a great flick back in high school. I'd have to watch it again.

So are comparisons between similar movies released around the same time a fair game? I'll go first---------'Volcano' is definitely better than 'Dante's Peak'. Stupider, yes, but better. And 'Deep Impact' is better than 'Armageddon', but it barely matters, because they both stink. And I know they're animal attack movies, not disaster movies, but 'Lake Placid' is way better than 'Deep Blue Sea'.

I can't think of any besides what's on that list, so here goes:
The Poseidon Adventure
Twister
Airplane
Snakes on a Plane

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

I'm not terribly fond of the genre, but I appreciate a few of them for whatever reasons. Backdraft in particular had an attraction at Universal Studios which I remember fondly, more than the movie itself.

Twister and Titanic are okay. I'll always like the dude who falls off the Titanic and hits a propeller, doing a little flip.

I have watched a few, but none come even close to being in my favourites... that said, my top three (I don't watch THAT many disaster films...)

Twister
San Andreas
The Day After
