Post-Apocalyptic Movies Should Point The Way To Utopia [Quote Of The Day]




 
 

via io9 by Charlie Jane Anders on 3/10/09

"I see many of these post-apocalyptic movies warning us, but I see very little in the line of suggestions for post-apocalyptic living or specific life-changing prescriptions for our current situations...

"What I would like to see is more movies where we see the apocalypse, but then we ALSO see how hard work, changing our life-style, and being supportive can bring communities together. I don't want just a "look we saved the day by killing the enemies" ending or a "we found the cure that saved the world" ending, but I want a film full of actual steps toward making our world a better place to live in. How do we do that?" [Beer And Scifi]

    "The End Review" is a journal dedicated to post-apocalyptic fiction. All other posts are the product of the author's own mind. Any resemblence to any person, place or thing are the product of the author's imagination and any similarities to people in the real world are purely coincidental. Although, wouldn't you feel just a little bit special if you happened upon a website where there was a description of a certain person that sounded just like you? Of course, such an honor would be completely diminished if said portrayal was tarnished by a little something called "the truth." In that case, I should probably get a lawyer.
