...I don't suppose you guys gave Al Gore's "Inconvenient Truth" any consideration. It is about the end of the world, and it is fiction.

Re: “I don't want to say too much....other than it is the most REALISTIC TEOTWAWKI movie I think I've ever seen.”
Really? I saw it quite a while ago. It didn't make much of an impression on me. In fact, I'm struggling to remember what the crisis was. Something about plumbing fixtures that suddenly turned on homeowners, wasn't it?

I saw TESTAMENT (1983) just a few weeks ago. Now THAT was a realistic TEOTWAWKI movie. Those of you who expect it to be all fun and games may have to re-think what TEOTWAWKI is after seeing that flick. It's still available on Amazon Prime.

It occurs to me that although I've seen a lot of TEOTWAWKI movies, not many were realistic. On The Beach and Countdown to Looking Glass were both decent. By and large, the majority have been far-fetched (Day Of The Triffids, The Last Man On Earth, Mad Max, The Quiet Earth, Damnation Alley, Planet of the Apes, Waterworld, Logan's Run) or comedic (Dr. Strangelove). That doesn't mean that they aren't entertaining. They just aren't among the scenarios I think could actually occur.
