Bells ringing at end

I always thought that meant the world was about to fry? Doesn't someone say at some point that the bells will ring if the explosions fail?

Fair use rationale for Image:Day earth moviep.jpg

Image:Day earth moviep.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Dystopia versus Disaster

Can someone please tell me why this is labeled as a dystopian science fiction movie rather than a disaster science fiction movie? The entire focus of the movie is towards the various natural disasters, etc., that plague the world after the nuclear bomb testing (and let's not forget the overall threat of the world burning up as the planet gets closer to the Sun). The dystopia doesn't really show up until the government starts to ration the water, no? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 1337pino (talkcontribs) 03:42, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
