What do you guys think happened to Eva?


Although it's likely that she will perish. She can still go back into the building and into those white tunnels. I'm sure the other guys have suits, food, guns and more.

The suit-guys probably left weeks or months ago, logic suggest you don't stick around in a nuclear hot-zone if you are able to get away.
- Not only is the radiation pollution your body, but the likelihood of survives overrunning you for your resources increase each day.

Eva is *beep* and she knows it, the whole world is *beep* as far as we can gather from the film. She got a few cans of food, a contaminated suit, limited oxygen supply, already suffering from radiation effects, as well as being psychologically ruined by the whole experience. She has miles to go in a chaotic wasteland. (which direction do you take?).

Most likely she would die in a matter of days or weeks.

Yep, I think she realized she'd just as f_kked above ground as she was below it. Just below ground in the bunker it would have happened slowly and more ghoulishly with those violent maniacs she was with.

Wait how do we gather that the whole world is *beep* from the film? They only show us one area...


Based on the number of nukes falling at the start of the film, I'd say the US was under a major attack. Historical and current evidence suggest that the US would retaliate massively in such and event, which would lead to a certain global nuclear war.

That's why. :)

I presumed there are still areas that are not nuked but for her to get to a "safe" area on foot may not occur. although i am reading online if there is a nuke and subsequent fallout it is the first 24-48 hours that you have to worry about radiation the most.

Pressuming that all nukes were launched for maximum population damage (in reality most are aimed at military targets, not population centers), even if we launched all the nukes in the world there would be literally billions of people still surviving.

Yep, the first two three days and especially the first rain (that brings the particles down with it) are the most dangerous ones. A week after the explosion you could probably walk in the crater without any safety gear and not get a dose high enough to get poisoning.

reply

That does not mean the world is fucked. Only US and the country that attacked it. Most of the world would be kind of okay, but probably much worse due to huge numbers of refugees coming from affected countries.

reply

That's how I felt at the end, too.

reply

that was a pretty elaborate tunnel system and lab we saw. she saw nothing. doomed!

reply

judging from the presumably radioactive ash she was walking into and that she seems to be stupid enough to wak towards the city instead of away from it - dead.

Now if this was a reality and you would emerge months after the bombs fell then you would see a pretty bleak but mostly not deadly scene. Watch out for rabid dogs as they would have went wild living of scraps in that time. Also the river, even if waporized by the waterball (unlikely) would have resumed minutes after.
