>government stops existing>everyone immediately resorts to eating babies and primitive tribalism Very subtle, McCarthy
>>221204587when White characters do it, it suddenly seems unrealistic
>>221204587>hmmm what vehicle will people be using in the apocalypse...>Oh I know, a Chevy C60 which hasn't had any parts manufactured for it since the 80s.
>>221204642Well it was the white people's fault. They enslaved them and brought them there. Then when they gained freedom no white country would recognise them and France forced them to pay reparations for money lost that put them in massive debt and that's before the US started interfering. They were right to kill all the white there-they were slavers
>>221204642They didn't kill the Polish!
I think its more about plants not growing. I never read the Road but I can confirm that Suttree (his masterpiece before Blood Meridian) is one of the greatest books of all time
>>221204587>everyone immediately resorts to eating babies and primitive tribalismyou saying like its a bad thing
>>221204653Given the absolute destruction of civilization depicted I think the cataclysmic event was something like a solar magnetic storm that fried anything more complex than a light bulb circuit
>>221204653You'd be surprised how you can keep an older truck like that alive, even without new parts.
>>221204825>They enslaved themblacks enslaved them>when they gained freedom no white country would recognise themwhy should they? they were clearly racists against Whites>France forced them to pay reparations for money lost rightfully so.its an absolute shithole even compared to the dominican republic which take up the other half of the island, its north/south Korea tier but with blacks
>>221204587Isn't all plant life dead and packaged food long run out? In that case, some will resort to cannibalism.
>>221204933How does that explain the harem of catamites they keep around?
>>221204892>him and his boys can just cruise around in their mad max machine, probably drinking couple beers whilst doing it>i get a ticket for having an indicator not workingland of freedom my ass
>>221204866It was yellowstone exploding
>>221204642Yes. Whites will dip back into agricultural feudalism and set up anti-teenager and anti-canabalism death squads
>>221206488Yellowstone volcanic system erupting would tear the ass out of Earth's crust (lel), no way anyone or anything would survive anywhere Plus it's never revealed in the movie what actually happened
>>221204892Why can they afford smart phones but not shoes?
>>221204653>hmmm what vehicle will people be using in the apocalypse...The answer is "whatever vehicle they have access to", dipshit.
>>221206650Nigger priorities.Apparently that's a common behavior in third world countries.
>>221206650>>221207073their soles are probably like leather now and don't have little delicate women feet like you do.
>>221204587is this movie worth watching if i enjoyed the book? i've been meaning to give it a go forever.
>>221206650I've seen pictures of tribesmen in huts deep in the jungle having smart phones. Those little glass bricks are ubiquitous these days.
>>221207164i dont think either is particularly satisfying. viggo's always great though.
>>221207164Yes, it's a relatively close adaptation. Also it's got nice imagery and based Viggo.
>>221207164I read the book first, liked it, and thought the movie was a good enough time when I watched it years later. Hope it works for ya, Anon
>>221204587t. Libertarian(for those who don't know this particular internet vernacular "t." translates to: "this post, brought to you courtesy of [blank]")
>>221204892Truly the best engineers and doctors
>>221207164Yeah. It's really really bleak, as it should be. Book's bleaker but it's still great.
>>221207164I've been trying to convince this doctor lady to watch it to no avail. Considering the movies she likes, I know she would like this one.
>government disappears>we start hanging criminals again>people educate their own kids with knowledge from books>we manufacture objects that are utilitarian and built to last>everyone is slightly happierThe apocalypse wouldn't make a very dramatic film, IRL
>>221207460you don't need to be a libertarian to realize that a vague threat of violence is the only thing that stops many people from behaving like animals.
>>221207755you'd have to be some sort of apartment-cattle city folk to think that comes from the government
>>221207770all right mr. harvard-educated smartypants, where is the threat of violence acskausally coming from?>inb4 incel nonsense about le jews or something equally asinine
>>221204587I think there was a bit more to it than that. The governments of the world stopped existing because the planet was dying and taking every organism with it.
>Once there were brook trouts in the streams in the mountains. You could see them standing in the amber current where the white edges of their fins wimpled softly in the flow. They smelled of moss in your hand. Polished and muscular and torsional. On their backs were vermiculate patterns that were maps of the world in its becoming. Maps and mazes. Of a thing which could not be put back. Not be made right again. In the deep glens where they lived all things were older than man and they hummed of mystery.
