La Soufrière is an interesting short documentary by Walter Herzog on a
volcano on Guadeloupe
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Soufri%C3%A8re_%28film%29
Godzilla (both the '54 original and '98 American remake have
palaeontologists as the 'scientific experts') and The day after tomorrow
and 2012 both have geologists as important characters.
On the bad movie list i'd add 'Triassic Attack'
