'I have a pair of binoculars' - CLIFF NOTES EDITION


Man, this is a nice place. I'd like to live here.

Yeah man, I'm using these binoculars to check out the smoke rising over the hillside from nearby cities. Do you guys think we should worry about that?

Nah it's cool man, I just loaded a bowl. You want green?

Imma set these binoculars down now, since I really don't see the utility in having them. They're just a prop for the house, I guess.

That sure was an awesome lunch we just had, where everyone sat around a table inside, and nobody bothered to keep watch on the property for any approaching intruders. We would just feed them any way amirite?

Let's go and discuss our feelings sitting on lawn chairs conveniently placed at the crest of a hillside, in perfect view of a stand of trees a few hundred yards away where there's probably not anybody else watching us with binoculars, or maybe even a rifle scope.

Surely those biker gangs who took over the grocery store down in town wouldn't possibly think of coming up to the well-known mountaintop solar-powered castle.

You wanna bone my wife bro, I totally understand. Don't shake my hand man, come in for a real bro squeeze.

These people would be dead so fast, it's not even funny.

Exactly (and well said). They should have had them shuttered onto the property due to a storm because thst would still allow them to deal with all these emotions and issues without the problems of how utterly stupid they acted.
"Dude, you brought a gun into my house?" Well considering the scary bikers and pushy national guardsmen...oh, and the fact the he world's ending you might thank him instead of chastising him.
Just to point out one of many, many issues going on.

I completely agree that as an apocalypse movie it's terrible and these characters were dumb (cept Laura) and ridiculous and immature; but gat dam that character development and variety. I loved how fleshed out all the personalities were, each character was so unique, if only this movie had handled the apocalypse storyline better..
