-How well or poorly did the film depict the reality of this phenomenon?

-Make sure you include appropriate graphics/videos, embedded into the post. Also, hyperlinks to appropriate pages can be useful as well.

-This will also include references used specifically in your blog post (i.e. movie/game name and company, weather information used in a blog post, information on any graphics used).
