www.oneword.com - one word, so little time [lava]

[Osquer 42]
Lava is one of the most fascinating substances in the Hollywood universe. Even though it is actually molten rock, which means it must be pretty hot, if you run fast enough over its surface, you can apparently carry someone to safety just as your shoes melt. It can also be turned aside by the strategic placement of construction medians which are made of concrete which apparently has a higher melting point than mere rock. Lava is just considerate that way. Whenever there's lava in a movie, I immediately know that my suspension of disbelief is going to get a work out. October 22, 2006 09:19 AM
