The way Max wails, "Harrrryyyy!!!" always hits me hard. In that instant he sounds like a child begging for his father to save him. It has a vibe of "Harry can do anything! Harry can save me!" childish hopefulness. I think Harry himself feels it as he watches helplessly as Max's armadillo is blown away. It's heartrending...
A great piece of dialogue. I don’t care what anyone says. Nobody connects action and emotion like Michael Bay does. Also, credit to Trevor Rabin for this legendary score. He managed to hit every note. From the intensity to the feelings of failure and love.
@@theoppenheimerprojects2867 A consistent theme in the comment sections of basically every clip from this film are how emotionally powerful it is. And that's absolutely deserved, Armageddon excels at this.

Well, technically, it would take 3 hours and 57 minutes for the meteor to strike the Earth after reaching the Zero Barrier, meaning the kid would have less than FIVE hours left of his life. But you ARE correct: it IS a heartbreaking scene either way.😢
@@arnoldrivas4590 why does everyone call this a Michael Bay film? I think it's an insult to the movie. It's part of the Bruckheimer Collection so I'm going with that lol
One thing I appreciate is the shot of everybody around the world. Most people would be looting, burning down cities, but when the end comes, most of the world would be with loved ones and/or making peace with their maker.
When it seemed like all hope was lost, it was only when Harry spotted something in the distance, the light of an approaching vehicle - The Armadillo from the Independence and when he saw the second Armadillo arrive - Hope was restored, even more so when he discovered the ones driving the vehicle, AJ, Lev and Bear, who survived the shuttle crash. There was no need to give the world bad news now. These astronauts have a hole to finish!
I audio-recorded this from a VHS copy I owned the film. This was the early 2000's in Oz, and I was in Grade 9 in High School at the time; I would play it almost every time I ever got an unfavourable result - from almost any Assessment I attempted during my time there. In looking back, It was my total comfort blanket - in the sense that a Bad result in school could never come close in comparison to whatever global issue our Planet happened to be facing at the time, especially if the World ever happened to face its very own extinction !
I've watched a lot of horror movies in the past, but this is by far the scariest movie scene I've ever seen. Everyone, all at once, gives up all hope that they had left, and prepares for the inevitable, Damn.
Then it gives you unbelievable hope later on when the second armadillo arrives. Harry and his crew are just moping around, totally broken. Lost. And its like a godsend that AJ and the very few survivors from the other shuttle have made it. The job for all mankind carries on.
The way the NASA crew stay at their positions to continuing monitoring and warning of impacts is sort of reminiscent of the Titanic crew who knew no matter what they were going to die but still had a job to do.
1 of the hardest to see scenes of the movie. And that'd really happen of people scramble to their families. The sirens gives me chills. That happening to Paris too
The sequence at 1:40 in the clip where you hear the doomsday siren start sounding gave me chills and a couple nightmares as a kid and still gives me goosebumps to this day
(Drill breaks) Rock: "Well this is god damn Greek tragedy." Harry: "We've all seen broken drill heads before." Chic: "Not after 10 feet." "Rock: I've never seen one." Harry: "Well now you've seen one."
Whenever Max was yelling it sounded like he said “I’m bailing” and pressed something that’s when he flew off, almost as if he intentionally let the machine fly off knowing it’s what was causing all the damage, he probably sacrificed himself so they’d at least have a slight chance and not get everyone killed
I think what makes this scene chilling is that the scenario is not that far off of what reality would be like in such an event of a huge meteor coming at us and knowing certain death is hours away
The pan handler looking up @ the sky always gets me. Knowing how the world has been & seeing how people are the coward while youre out facing a asteroid "global killer" shows you who has & always will have heart to the end. 🙌🏼
@@uknow1377 lol, going to a shelter despite knowing everyone is doomed, is an act of cowardice. The religious people showed more acceptance of the situation even though it’s a movie, The scene with the granddaughter and grandpa they show more dignity than you.
l remember when this movie came out critics were saying that it is as much fun to watch as it is scientifically inaccurate...but ah i dont really care as long as it is entertaining
Actually, I can quite literally relate to that. I spent quite a few years rage gaming. I still snap a bit, punch my keyboard and what not, but I keep my cool these days for most part. Good thing I found meditation. Ironically, my friend I'm on skype with right now is screaming at the top of his lungs, playing Chivalry: Medieval Warfare.
Psh yeah right MB. Top Gun, Crimson Tide, Remember the Titans, The Rock, Con-Air, Gone in 60 Seconds, Armageddon, Enemy of the State.....all Bruckheimer production's without which MB couldn't direct jack. Plus killer soundtracks most due to Trevor Rabin who often works with Bruckheimer.
3:02 He says after it passes "Zero Barrier", it'll take 3 hours to hit Earth. Yet, right after they blow up the asteroid, almost instantly NASA announced it's passing by Earth almost instantaneously.
Probably got a significant amount of boost from the blast. Though I think that the travel time might have shortened, and the scenes jumpcut chronologically.
There is daylight on earth everywhere because of the giant meteor casting a very bright light on the shaded side of the earth. If you ever seen a tiny meteor flying by earth or landing on it, you'd know what i mean.
I liked Max 😢😢 i wish he got to live so his mum could be so proud of him 🥲 on the runway at NASA at the end after saving the world. Just like Chick's wife was
I always liked how they say martial law has been implemented in 42 countries. Uh, worlds bout to end think anyone cares bout the martial law. Still though one of the best movies Bruce Willis ever did along with The Fifth Element
Max: Im bailing Armadillo breaks away from the asteroid and explodes harry: MAXXXXXXX!!!! Rockhound: goodbye max Harry: MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAXXXXXXXXXX!!!!!!!! Rockhound: take care buddy
All the world retreats underground. Except the French. They're still out dancing in their 2CV's. I wonder where the asteroid will hit... or did they come out again after they learned it's going to be a direct hit and their vaults won't help them anyway?
That last aerial Paris scene is completely unrealistic. We just saw the whole city being destroyed yet we see many buildings, roads, vehicles and more being intact, with sirens going, lol.
He was trying to disengage the drilling but the pressure from the gas pocket was too much that reversing would of resulted the same way. Max was dead no matter what.

That reporter makes this movie more lively
I felt so sorry for Max, presuming he wasn't killed instantly, being shot off into outer space.
+Damar158 I think he died as he got cooked alive inside fairly quickly. The movie seemed to indicate that.
+WolfySnackrib666 That and if you look closely, the cockpit of the Armadillo got smashed against a rock, and he wasn't wearing his helmet...
NO! Not smashed?! :O
+WolfySnackrib666 Well, it's very likely the cockpit was breached, he would have died pretty quickly...
Max got turned into Instant meatloaf
This is scarier then any horror movie. All hope; for every living soul on the planet, lost. I can’t even begin to comprehend
Whenever Max was yelling it sounded like he said “I’m bailing” and pressed something that’s when he flew off, almost as if he intentionally let the machine fly off knowing it’s what was causing all the damage, he probably sacrificed himself so they’d at least have a slight chance and not get everyone killed
I'm pretty sure he said, "I'm baking.," like whatever the Armadillo had hit was making the temperature in the cabin skyrocket until it combusted.
I think what makes this scene chilling is that the scenario is not that far off of what reality would be like in such an event of a huge meteor coming at us and knowing certain death is hours away
