I always remember this being my favorite part of the movie. Kind of like singing Atlantis underwater and 50, 000 leagues under the sea.

[MrFunkhauser]

With this ability to dive down and recover all kinds of useful items why isn't he the most richest man on the ocean????

[nathanfitzgearl]

Gotta love those swirling musical crescendos that start around 2:00. That really made the scene

[TheReviewSpace]

The mid 90s; the last time they tried to create actual big budget movie sets instead of the CG Avatar worlds we see today. Too bad Waterworld lost a lot of money though. This scene was always fascinating because it was one of the few times the film felt soberingly dystopian (instead of the "Mad Max on the ocean" vibe we constantly get throughout most of the movie).

Here’s a fun fact. The sunken city the Mariner and Helen visit is actually a digitally edited Denver, Colorado. See that building with the curved roof at 1:37? That’s the Wells Fargo Center, aka the Cash Register Building.

[AtlasBlizzard]

This was the part of the movie that stuck the most in my mind as a kid.

[Definitelylnterested]

It was actually first catastrophic film I've ever watched, and man... it felt out of this world when you really think about it. All that remained of humanity were the ones who managed to survive rapidly increasing sea level, and we don't actually are told know how many years it has been since last of Dry Land vanished under water. Helen has lived her whole life not knowing anything else than subsistence on tiny atoll. Such realization, that their lives were build on ultimate _hecatomb_ of uncountable humans that died when ocean swallowed them all, it would be enough to destroy weaker-minded people and only emphasized strength of her character. Awesome movie, and has aged really well.👍

[CaesarSeriona]

The one thing I wished they would explain is the fact that any nation that has a navy has a chance for survival.

[celeboria]

So, the underwater city he is showing her is supposedly Denver, Colorado and Dryland the top of Mount Everest in the Himalayas, meaning about 8000 miles away.

Just throwing that out there.

[jsmcmxlvii]

This is an underrated action movie, but has more technical inaccuracies than I can count. For one, if all of the ice on Earth melted, Colorado Springs would still be more than a mile above sea level. .

[shizzlenizzle]

I think the water pressure would kill them

[MikMoen]

There can't be nearly enough ice to raise the sea level THAT much.

[willmarsden]

No freaking way that Dive Bell has anywhere near enough air.

[Fershizzal]

2:14 was a smooth transition i gotta say

[dragonfruit]

Imagine if they had added giant claw marks and gashes to the submarine, that would atleast let us picture what happened to make it sink a bit clearer

[stevenwinterhill]

I can't believe they are floating 24, 000 feet above from where I'm standing right now...omg

[guntherthequizmaster]

It is known that the world fell, and that most people in it died.
The dead will not suffer the hardships of the terrible world which remains. Those born into this hell have no remembrance of anything else.
Those who survived... Those who are the truly broken. For they know what was before. - Griffa, Mad Max (2015)
Maybe we can rapidly evolve into water creatures. - Sid, Ice Age: The Meltdown (2006)

[TritonsGuard]

Thing is unless the flooding event was only a few decades ago, most if not all of that city, and sub, would be gone. The ocean breaks whatever doesn't regenerate down. The trees and ski lift would definitely not last long.

[JLovrak]

So, I get that they used Denver for this because of its reputation as “The Mile High City, ” just to give audiences an idea of how high the oceans actually rose.

My question is, since this would have been one of the last places in the United States to get flooded, and since this happened over the course of hundreds of years, why are there still ski lifts and people’s cars and whatnot still in the wreckage like someone just flash-flooded the city one day while it was still thriving and put it a mile underwater?

It seems the circumstances that led to Waterworld would have led to the collapse of civilization as we know it even when there was still land left, and climate change would have scuttled Denver’s skiing industry for a century or so before it went underwater.

And what I really want to know is, at what point in Waterworld’s past was Denver deep enough underwater that someone could send a submarine through it, but some country still had an intact government and military to send a submarine? And WHAT COUNTRY WAS IT FROM?! If the oceans rose enough to completely submerge Denver, that really limits the likely candidates to a couple cities in China and a dozen or so cities scattered around South America.

[KublayKahn]

Wouldn’t that dirt be heavily salinated and basically be unusable?
