And today we're discussing what causes the end of the world In movies you're looking.

Our survival instinct is our single greatest source of inspiration.

Now more than ever, people find themselves asking the unsettling yet eerily relevant question.

Although Hollywood screenwriters have given us several possible nightmare scenarios over the years, some of them seem far fetched, while others almost sound probable.

In the case of a zombie apocalypse, the likelihood is somewhere in between.

Zombie outbreaks often start off in a lab where a virus is discovered or created, turning patient zero into a mindless, reanimated corpse whose sole purpose is to bite anyone with a pulse.

After nibbling on a few scientists or doctors, it isn't long until the zombie plague spreads throughout the land.

If the outbreak is contained to a small town composed of scrappy young heroes, there may be hope for humanity.

So we're just gonna stand here while the thumbs up our ass is we're gonna go out there and save the world.

Once the zombies reach major cities, though, it's pretty much game over.

But how do you get a zombie to take their medicine?

Zombies might not be really, but if you switched out the word zombie with the infected, the scenario suddenly takes on a much more relevant meaning.

Zombie movies air essentially pandemic movies with more flesh eating pandemics.

Air, also popular in the end of the world genre, although seeing people run away from hordes of zombies is admittedly a lot more fun.

What just if there are echoes of real world horror in zombie movies.

The same can be said about the robot uprising genre in the same vein as zombies.

Technology gone wrong movies often begin with a virus, albeit one inside a computer.

Given humanity's ever growing reliance on technology, ah, global computer virus can cripple our economy, defense systems and way of life With the press of a button.

The cyber carnage will only be amplified if the network behind this virus gained self awareness.

This will traditionally result in a nuclear war, wiping out civilization as we know it.

Okay, Those who survived Judgment Day will be left to fend off the sentient robots hellbent on terminating what remains of our species.

Of course, the technology that dooms humankind doesn't need to stem from Earth per se.

Sometimes it comes in the form of a giant robot from another planet.

In that case, though, would it be categorized under the robot uprising or alien invasion genre?

Either way, aliens air also a common source of destruction in movies.

Whereas zombies typically follow a basic blueprint, aliens could get a bit more creative and how they in the world may be flying saucers will be deployed over landmarks, blowing them to smithereens.

Tripod with laser beams and tentacles will get the job done.

Some extraterrestrial beings air strong and fast enough on their own to destroy human being with their bare hands, as advanced aliens can be the key to their downfall, maybe as insignificant as a microorganism or a change in sound frequency.

Even when aliens mean no harm, trouble can still arise, Dr Banks, you could start.

After all, humanity has a bad habit of judging what they don't know or understand.

The minute the mothership lands, the authorities may jump to conclusions that will do more harm than good.

Tonight, China becomes the first world power to declare war against the aliens.

Aliens don't necessarily need to come from outer space.

Sometimes they're interdimensional beings from a parallel universe.

Whether you want to call them interdimensional, extra dimensional or other dimensional, they can be smaller than the average human or as massive as a skyscraper.

Speaking of which kind, you have a tendency to wreak havoc on the silver screen as well, whereas some originate from different dimensions.

Others are science experiments gone wrong, or even the result of chemical fallout from the destruction of an asteroid that threatened Earth.

In any case, all of our nuclear warheads do not stand a chance against these gargantuan beasts, especially if they suddenly appear out of nowhere in great numbers, giving us little time to react today of the monster uprising.

Towers will topple, bridges will be burned, and those who try to run will only get stepped on.

Honestly, our Onley hope is that another giant monster shows up to fight for humanity.

Or perhaps beauty will vanquish the beast.

Oh, my God, I e I'm not saying this shit right now, okay?

So far, we've touched upon zombies, evil robots, aliens and beastly titans, all of which seem fairly grounded.

However, we're not talking about the kind that you see in science fiction pictures.

Some nuclear war movies could theoretically happen even if liberties are taken here and there.

In a majority of modern Hollywood productions, the heroes trying to prevent war are American.

Whichever country or group is behind the impending attack, chances are the main villain will have, Ah, thick foreign accent.

And while all the world's most important people are distracted here, I will detonate the W.

There's usually a time limit to stop the attack.

Let's say somewhere between 72 24 hours, and occasionally there are a few higher ups who are in on the conspiracy.

Thankfully, there's always a team of agents or maybe just one super spy to save the world when it comes to end of the world movies, though the go to set up is typically an act of God.

Thes can range from severe weather conditions.

Toe a massive comet on a collision course with Earth.

In numerous cases, humanity dooms itself by not taking care of the world they were given.

Maybe the government created a weapon that inadvertently stopped the Earth's core rotation.

The core of the Earth has stopped spinning.

Maybe the effects of climate change finally caught up to us.

Whatever the explanation, it's up to a group of ragtag scientists to either save our world or find us a new one for survival.

Movies have ended the world in a variety of different ways, although there are a few staples we can expect no matter what.

Large groups running from destruction historic sites, crumbling newscasters delivering exposition, the president giving an empowering speech and estranged couple rekindling their relationship.

The authority figures who didn't listen the hero they should have listened to and the list goes on.

The world may end, but some tropes will never die.
