https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVCrTJdNtSs>In a post-apocalyptic future where a virus wiped out nearly all of humanity and vicious marauders known as The Reapers roam the wastelands, Hig (Jacob Elordi) is a crop duster pilot living on an abandoned Colorado airfield that he begrudgingly shares with former U.S. Army Ranger Bangley (Josh Brolin). Every day Hig pilots his 50-year-old Cessna with his only friend and cockpit companion, elderly beloved dog Jasper, searching to find and replenish diminishing supplies. On his latest search, Hig crash-lands on a small ranch where he meets Cima (Margaret Qualley), a young doctor and the daughter of protective world-weary rancher Dale (Guy Pearce), who fiercely guards his kin and "fortress." This encounter leads Hig to the promise of a new future worth fighting for.
>>221042102They want to manufacture your consent so that when the supply chains are deliberately choked, you won't unite against the actual architects of the collapse. Instead, you'll accept that the world is just a brutal dog eat dog wasteland where you have to fight your neighbor for a can of beans, completely give up your civil liberties, and submit to the authority of "former military" glowniggers running isolated rural fiefdoms.

>>221042254Wrong thread botbro
>>221042288Kill yourself jeet
>>221042312dont be rude me dear bastard
>>221042102>2 old white guys with beardsThat's not confusing at all!
I don't get this idea there will be bands of roaming raiders after 2030. Either you can survive on your own to live past then and don't need to raid anyone or you can't and you are dead in the first month or two.Food is not scarce, especially when people are gone.
>>221042382In reality they would be not just after food but also women or little girls like in The Road.
>>221042102Haven't they realized Elordi has 0 charisma and 0 main character energy
>>221042481hear me out
>>221042382>Either you can survive on your ownNo one can. Humans are pack animals and community builders, lone wolves kill themselves.And that's exactly why the "loner and his heckin' doggo" trope in this movie is such an insidious piece of predictive programming. The elites know that a united community is a threat, so they pump out these scripts to program the masses into hyper individualistic paranoia. By making every other survivor outside the protagonist's bubble a "vicious Reaper," they are deliberately manufacturing consent for a balkanized society. They want you conditioned to view your own neighbors as bloodthirsty threats rather than allies when the grid actually goes down.
>>221042683And I assume you are a well connected member of society?
>Ridley Scottso it'll be shit
>>221042254>>221042382>>221042456>>221042481>>221042683>>221042757>>221042801Were you there? No?
>>221042823I was there, actually
>>221042683Pack animals also often kill each other or wage war to the death with other clans.
>>221042835>Pack animals also often kill each otherChimps do. Humans built civilization because we evolved to trade, cooperate, and use diplomacy beyond our immediate tribe. Yet Hollywood always pushes a false binary: you're either a savage "Reaper" or a paranoid prepper hiding behind an military glownigger. They never show normal people organizing mutual aid or agricultural co-ops. The only show that actually depicted organic community rebuilding was Jericho and it got canceled because the antagonists were literal paramilitary feds orchestrating false flags.
>>221042956>because the antagonists were literal paramilitary feds orchestrating false flags.Lenny james was just browsing porn and chilling on his tank, bothering no one. Stop acting nuts.
>>221042102A lab-made virus? eff off. Bunch of crappywood + import libs in midwest-style gear. Eff off.
>>221042102>ridley scott That's a hard pass
>>221042102>ridley scott>muh apocalypseYAWN
>>221042102>4 white leadsOoohh?>Ridley ScottOhhhh.
>>221042102Aren't we done yet with this same kind of movie?Also still no colors
Watching solely for Brolin operator kino
>>221042102>Ridley Scottno thanks
>>221042102Meh. Looks too washed out and very generic. I like Josh Brolin though so might watch it for he.
>>221045761It's less operator and more John Wick power fantasy. It's ridiculous what he manages against the odds. Superhero-tier.
>>221042102Is it called Dog Stars because it has a dog? Does the dog survive? I like dogs.
>>221042102>vicious marauders known as The Reapers roam the wastelands>'the wastelands'>everything is green and full of treesnigga what
>>221042524Cast the GTA3 movie.
>>221042102Im sick and tired seeing jacob elordi everywhere, this is because of that wuthering movie
>>221046578>not a single open mcdonalds in sight>nay a powered scooter or ebike in working order>the homeless canps.. abandoneda lifeless hellhole, truly barren
>>221046578they are going for the last of us aesthetics.
>>221046631this faggot is more obnoxious than pedro pascal. at least pedro can act
>>221046578no you don't understand the trees and grass and plants and shit are all poisonous because of the virus which wiped humanity so nobody can touch them or eat them and animals in those woods are also poisonous and vicious and virused so nobody can hunt and eat them so the protagonists must take a journey every day to search and find and replenish diminishing supplies because otherwise they will die of hunger because all the plants are full of virus and can't be used as supplies so they must look for canned food and such and they must defend against vicious hordes of marauders known as the reapers who roam this land to steal the supplies from others instead of finding it themselves in abandoned buildings and instead of eating the plants because plants are poison because otherwise the movie would not happen get it now?look it's not just mad max but green okay?? its much deeper because its caused by a virus you get it??? nobody ever done post-apocalyptic future movie where everything is green and not desert ridley scot is a genious
>>221042102>In a post-apocalyptic future where a virus wiped out nearly all of humanity and vicious marauders known as The Reapers roam the wastelandsAnd I'm already bored.
looks like b movie shit>>221042254not like wed be able to reach them in their hawaii bunkers
>>221042102>Every day Hig pilots his 50-year-old Cessna searching to find and replenish diminishing suppliesWhy can't he just stock up? Piloting a plane every day seems like a pretty fucking big waste of resources.
>>221042102should have been the BEE GEES biopic
>>221042102I wouldn't care about this if not for the aesthetic of them living out of an old Cessna. Who the fuck uses an M4A1 these days anyways? Modern ARs are plentiful>>221046783This, the amount of fuel those things suck down is outrageous, and they actually can't carry that much stuff. If he was just flying alone it would be alright, but he's got this girl with him to which further exasperates the weight and balance issue vs supplies to survive
>>221042337lmao I literally thought they'd just put Brolin on twice before I read guy Pearce was also in the film
>>221042481yeah but he's tall
pearce and brolin are always entertaining, but ridley scott is an absolute hack. might pirate later
>>221042102I like Ridley Scott, I like post-apo, I watch movie.
>>221042102https://www.worldofreel.com/blog/2026/6/8/ridley-scotts-the-dog-stars-has-a-110-million-budget-and-may-be-headed-for-disaster-trailerRidley fucking lost
>>221042683>noooo individualism bad!!Fuck off you demonic communist
>>221049282oh no no no no
>>221042102That sounds really fucking boringWhy even bother with such a generic fucking post apocalypse story
>>221042102>Elrodi>Brolin>PearceThis is a movie for 40+ divorced women, we are not the target audience.>but muh post-apocalypticIt's as post-apo as Twilight was a horror.
>>221042683This, so much. Farmers literally can't exist without Starbucks baristas.
>>221049680True. I'm a farmer and I'd literally starve to death if DoorDash stopped delivering me food every day. And without Amazon... man, I'd survive 1 week tops. We as a species truly can't survive on our own!
>>221049507why retire when you can make treasure island with hugh jackman? it's going to be his next bladerunner
>>221050069why can't he just stop? he haven't made a good movie since Gladiator
>>221042102I like guy pearce but those other three are an instant not watching for me, sorry ridley
>>221050694Let the man work.
