Juggernaut 5 pages

Richard Lester's Juggernaut (1974) is a bomb-disposal thriller staged aboard the transatlantic liner Britannic in heavy seas. A blackmailer demands £500,000 to disclose how to defuse seven bombs hidden in the ship; a Royal Navy team led by Lt. Cdr. Anthony Fallon (Richard Harris) parachutes onto the heaving deck while Scotland Yard's Supt. McCleod (Anthony Hopkins) works the suspect list in London. The structural twin of The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (also 1974): same year, same negotiate-by-radio spine, same professionals-vs-mastermind shape, same anti-spectacle deflation of the disaster-film template.

• Backbeats (Juggernaut) — the full beat-by-beat breakdown structured by the Two Approaches rivets.
• Annoyance catalog — annoyance.json (10 instances: 5 plot-driving, 2 coping-tool, 3 vocal-register). Interactive viewer at ../Taking-of-Pelham-123-Wiki/annoyance.html (Timeline / List / Compare views, paired against Pelham 123's 17 instances). Juggernaut's annoyance is roughly a third the density of Pelham's and concentrated in two locations: Captain Brunel's running complaint about the rushed refit (foreshadows mechanical vulnerability) and Fallon's bomb-disposal team using exasperation as a coping register — a category Pelham doesn't have, and which Juggernaut contributes to the disaster-genre grammar.
