The Day After

[EnderJE]

Anyone remember this movie? If that was you, would you stand outside when it dropped or try to hide and survive after it?

wasnt it about the day after a nuclear attack?

 

[EnderJE]

Jesus! I thought you were older. The movie came out in the early 80s. It was the day after the atomic bomb dropped.

 

[redguru]

Yeah, with Jason Robards(sic) and some really cheesy special effects.

I figured that it it were to happen, I would take my family outside and tell each one of them how much they mean to me and how much I love them.

I'd tell them that I'm not a religious man, but that if the stories are true...if they could save a seat for me and wait at the pearly gates.

I'd tell my son J that I was sorry that I couldn't keep my promise to protect him. I'd tell my son E that I was sorry that he would never see the sunlight again. I'd tell my wife that I always have and always will love her.

Then, I'd look up at the sky at the missle and whisper "Dad, I'm coming home."

Then, my wife would say, "That's C...a melodramatic fucker till the end."

I remember it. My parents taped it & mailed me a copy in Germany. Makes ya think.
I'd like to think I would have the balls to stand there & defiantly shriek at the incoming, but i'd probably cower in a hole & try to get us through as the radiation & hunger sucked the humanity from us one bit at a time.
Do you remember the movie about the nuke on a trawler in Seattle harbour?
It was kind of like War of the Worlds. They had it done as a news thing & they kept flashing a banner that it was all fake, but people were still freaking.
