Global Warming and the Big Screen …

March 12th, 2007 · No Comments

While the Sports Illustrated cover is one indication of Global Warming’s becoming part of the societal lexicon in the United States, the growth of Global Warming as a theme and issue in Hollywood movies is another indicator. As per The New York Times, On Screens Soon, Abused Earth Gets Its Revenge. The big-screen will see ever more films with the following as a core part of the story line:

“Tired of abuse by mankind, the earth is angry. Worse, the planet is out to even the score.”

Environmental-related themes will show up in movies like the Transformers, dueling alien races, the Autobots and the Decepticons, bring their battle to Earth, leaving the future of humankind hanging in the balance.

The Times quotes the film’s co-author, Roberto Orci, “With this thinking all around, it’s obviously leaking into the popcorn movies.” From the article, “Mr. Orci added that he had seen a number of development projects recently in which the monster was created by environmental change.”
