Anyone else see this crazy movie? A literal train wreck you can't stop watching.

Another product of ‘Administration outreach” to Hollywood to include ‘climate change themes’.

Incrementalism and repetition folks. No matter haw stupid the package.

this trope has been done before. Saw something similar on the Starz channel and the Syfy channel

Saw it. Rich guys are scum. Poor guys are saints. Typical liberal crap. Apart from that not a bad movie. Not a good movie, either. I’d give it three out of five stars. IMHO, there is no way it deserves a 92% rating, which it was getting on Rotten Tomatoes when I looked last night.

Good timing for Global Cooling themes. It’s getting colder next week...

Well, they’ve done ocean arks and space arks. They’ve done land-locked city bound ‘arks’. They’ve done underground and above ground. They’ve done just about every wilda$$ scenario of dystopian future and an island-of-refuge one can think about.

So, now we get a train, traveling throughout the desolate land with the cargo cars (peons) and the higher class cars the closer one gets to the bridge, I mean engine. Just damn.

I wonder what the movie team had to do for the writer to put his prose into action without badmouthing it. I just wonder. An aside - I hear they’re making a Sharknado 2 ! Should be lotsa fun there!

I like post apocalyptic stories and this looks like an interesting departure from the typical theme.

Haven't seen it yet. I just have one silly question.
If everyone lives on the train that keeps moving, who maintains the track?

If they want to make a movie about Liberal policies and climate change this is a perfect book to base it on!
