I’m giving a series of talks at the local library, first one was a few weeks ago, and some asked me, “What does a worst case climate change scenario look like?”
For homework, I assigned that person to watch the entire “Mad Max” series, including the most recent entry, Fury Road, above.
And I committed to watching that one myself, as I had not. Well, last night I did.
If you can make it thru the first 20 minutes or so, turns out that amidst the noise and explosions, which generally don’t stop, this is a pretty thoughtful and heart rending movie. Turns out a lot of manly right wing men were upset that it actually has a feminist, earth-centered message, and a warning.
And yes, there will be sequels to this sequel.
gotta admit, I dismissed it from my must-see’s. Might have to reconsider on DVD now. Mindless explosions are just so so tiresome.
definitely seems mindless the first 20-25 minutes. You have to hang in.
That’s what fast forward is for.
Doomer porn! There’s a whole section at the Apocalypsi Library at the End of the World: http://doomfordummies.blogspot.com/
Great work, Gail. Keep it coming.
