I can't argue with your point, especially with the "mushroom" cloud ending
of the movie and Aronnax's statement about maybe the world not being ready
for such power, a statement that was surely meant for the 1950s.
Nonetheless, the atomic power replacement for electricity is a near perfect
update to Verne's electricity. But for the ending, it was not shoehorned
into the movie.
