Not sure the best one has been made yet. When the wind blows was a powerful statement when it came out.

Co-incidenally I read this yesterday: https://www.vice.com/amp/en/article...it-prediction-that-society-will-collapse-soon

From 1972 it's fairly doom-mongering but links to a 2020 review.

The end is nigh. You'll not need that bike(s) so send them my way before it's too late

As a species we are predictably stupid.

At the end of Trascendence, when they switch off all the internetz to destroy the AI taking over the world, everyone reverts to analogue and rides bicycles. It is just about the only post apocolyptic movie that does not rely on monster-trucks or horses to get around. In reality after any major transport outage the first wheels to spin are bicycles.

Threads. Love it. I actually wrote about it in an academic paper (sadly unpublished) on post-apocalyptic language development 😄

Should have been quite short. To quote Return of the Living Dead "send more cops"

How about a population control film like Logan’s Run?
Scary stuff.

The world must already have ended as the only one* I've seen is Day of the Triffids and that was well before the pandemic.

*I'm not admitting to have seen Notting Hill

With the further advancement of the woke movement with nobody being allowed to upset anyone else people will work together and these problems will be solved but swearing will be outlawed with automatic fines being handed out, a bit like the future in Demolition Man with Sly and the wonderful Wesley Snipes:
