One of my all time top 10! Timeless, and as relevant today as when it was made. My daughter and I both watch it once a year or so, and it will always be on that list of films to be enjoyed again and again!

Actually… we would both love to see this story concluded. The resettling of Dry Land, struggles to keep it safe and in the hands of good people, and possibly even the rediscovery of the lost knowledge of the last days of the old world,and what lead to the ice Capa melting. Not to mention the struggle for acceptance that mutants would surely face. It all makes me want to stay up and watch it again tonight, even though the closing credits just finished rolling! Lol Really, though… sequel, please!

Maybe it reminds people of another media fiasco…

I wonder if Costner has heard Tacocat\’s "Dry Land Is a Myth". There\’s a "Why? why? Why. Kevin Costner, did you die?" chant in it!

The \’Ulysses\’ Cut – if you can find it – is a better version of an already decent action film.

Yeah, it\’s not nearly as bad as say, Batman and Robin, Battlefield Earth or Catwoman. Those are dreadful. Waterworld\’s a solid scifi-action-flick, not great but not a bad film either.

The opening scene of the Trimaran is still jaw-dropping. Beautiful cinematography and music with, yes, a hackneyed script – but Costner\’s passion for the project shines through. Doesn\’t deserve its over-the-top criticism.

I wholeheartedly agree with Kevin Reynolds sentiments. I remember word spilling out that the production was troubled and the budget was ballooning. The media couldn\’t wait for this thing to bomb. Imagine everyone\’s surprise that it ended up being a better-than-average entry in the sci-fi genre. And Dennis Hopper is glorious in this thing. \’Waterworld\’ was very unfairly treated at the time and hopefully time will be more kind.
