Texas and California would never be united to attack Washington DC.aggiehawg said:

Texas and Cali join up? How that happen?

Hard to tell but I'm going to bet the ones who seceded were because of a Trump like president who was dictatorial
Yep definitely SciFi....LOL, California and Texas on the same side.
Maybe this was filmed before the PAC12 implosion?
I heard them say "3rd term president" on the radio in the background.

As it starts, it says 17 states have seceded. My assumption is that California has been split into two or more states and one or more of those then joined what they call the "Western Alliance."
So did I. I had the CC on as well to make sure I was hearing correctly.Maroon Elephant said:

So, FDR?
WTF. I wonder who is funding that movie. Civil War fantasy movies doesn't sit right with me.
Seems like a dumb movie
How did Texas go so wrong??? Anyone who teams up with California to oppose Ron Swanson is obviously the bad guy!
looks to be mostly a british production, but it will be distributed in the US by A24 (American)Dan Scott said:

And it is over 3 hours longs.
Somehow I suspect the bad guy will be a "right wing fascist" and probably doing every single thing the left has thought Reagan, Bush, Bush, and Trump were all going to do, but never actually did.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

They gotta tell you what they're going to do - it's like a rule.

And A24 movies are usually pretty damned good
I'm sure it's going to be preachy somehow, but I'm a sucker for dystopian movies so I'll check it out.
Follow the money. I betcha China financed it. The Chinese and Russians both are going to be spreading all kinds of divisive poison our way. Lets face it we are a political and demographic powder keg.aggiehawg said:

If I was them its what I'd do. That said, China has its own fault lines we should take a crow bar too.
The writer of Annihilation?
You mean that movie with the ridiculous ballet at the end, ruining an otherwise good flick?
And, you know one faction is going to be bible thumping, racist, fill in the blank-phobic, rednecks - which means you also know who the heroes are going to be.
I predict a highly reviewed **** show.

It sure is a fantasy for some on this board.Dan Scott said:

God bless America... or what's left of it.
The chilling first trailer for writer-director Alex Garland's upcoming film Civil War debuted Wednesday, and it offers a scary vision of America's future.
The film's plot is being kept under wraps, with a new logline only describing it as a "a race to the White House in a near-future America balanced on the razor's edge" but the trailer offers some answers about the bleak state of things.
LINKQuote:
News clips in the trailer tell us 19 states have seceded, the U.S. army has ramped up activity, and there are mentions of something referred to as the "Western Forces" of California and Texas, as well as the "Florida Alliance." We're told the president played by Nick Offerman has said an ongoing uprising will be dealt with swiftly. And Kirsten Dunst appears to be leading a team of journalists attempting to get into the U.S. Capitol.
The intense clip is full of harrowing images, but perhaps none more so than a standoff between Wagner Moura's character and an armed man played by Jesse Plemons. Moura can be heard saying during a standoff, "There's been a misunderstanding, we are American." To which Plemons' character chillingly replies, "Ok, what kind of American are you?"
With Texas and Florida being the states leading the scessionist states. it wouldn't be a Trump like POTUS.
It would be a Biden POTUS who claims Americans are domestic terrorists, mostly in states such as Texas and Florida. And the subject of California possibly being broken into multiple states with one being a red state plus Eastern Oregon wanting become a part of Idaho as both have been in the news suggests to me those actions having already occurred at the time setting of the movie.
There is also a line that "journalists get shot on sight in DC." Again, which party hates free speech? The Dems, not the GOP.
They put Texas and Cali on the same side knowing in reality they never would be. If you tried to make an objective though provoking movie this is a good idea, you vilify the right (Texas) and the left (Cali) with the moderates being the reset of the country. But-- I doubt that is the way this plays out.usmcbrooks said:

Oh I think Utah and Ga are also blue in that map so that gives the 'bad' guys a pop of 84 million with a GPD of $7T or the Worlds 3rd largest eco.
Hey might as well have some fun and do a little math, for entertainment purposes of course.
I hope it bombs.
I hope Americans can put their entertainment interests aside.
We don't need that divisive *****

We've had uncle Ronny, Governor Schwarzenegger, and President Trump…I can get behind a President Ron Swanson.
Florida?

I'm pretty sure that with Nick Offerman, Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons involved, we can all guess how the bad guys and heroes will line up.

Doesn't seem all that scientific to me
California will be on our side once we invade and conquer. It will be an occupied territory.

Which party loves their "journalist" propagandists? The Dems
Same, it's taking too long to go from fantasy to reality.Dan Scott said:

Key word. That is not free speech.Quote:
