* StrawmanHasaPoint: Dennis Quaid's character shouldn't be believed carte blanche, because the scientific community isn't in agreement with him. Whereas global warming is believed by all scientists, in this universe only one person believes in global warming as Dennis Quaid does. The scientific method is that a lot of scientists have to agree on something through peer review for it to be good policy.

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: Being one of the first films to depict photoreal computer-generated weather effects on a massive scale, ''The Day After Tomorrow'' is fondly remembered today for its special effects. The [[GiantWallOfWateryDoom storm surge scene]] is well-regarded in particular, with convincing CG water flowing through and interacting with a digital replica of Lower and Midtown Manhattan.

*** On a more sobering note, stills from the movie were [[https://www.dailydot.com/unclick/new-york-hurricane-ida-flooding-day-after-tomorrow/ dredged up once again during Hurricane Ida in 2021,]] with people comparing the cinematic flood to the real-life disaster occurring in New York at the time. The similarities were uncanny for many people.

Either Sam didn't bother to check the instructions, or he thought he was such a special snowflake that the rules didn't apply to him.
