In this session, you will find a YouTube clip from the 1998 movie, Armageddon. In this movie, an asteroid was set to collide with the earth, and the United States was sending a group of “roughnecks,” deep core drillers, to destroy the asteroid and save the planet. Take a minute to watch this video clip below, reflecting on the manifestations of our culture that are contained in this scene. How does this clip reflect the culture of the United States? How is culture of other countries reflected? How do you think these have changed since the movie was made in 1998? https://youtu.be/j_sUlupV48I
