    Reality for a post nuclear war would be far worse. In fact the northern hemisphere would have very few survivors. Some studies show as little as 100-300 million people left on Earth afterwards. 300 million is about the total population of the Earth in 1AD. So the biblical thing is kind of fitting.

The setting is great, the cinematography top notch, and the acting just as good. But the underlying storyline is laughable and utterly pointless to begin with. Dude could have just made up bullshit he halfassedly remembered since he WAS alive during the time the book was around, and was forced to watch thieving priests and pastors ruin his mothers life until he snapped and killed her. Shits in the special features of the blue ray, a half animated comic really that explains his reasoning further.

    I bet that Solara’s mother denied to tell him she could interpret Braille due to carnegies sinful actions, realizing that she has one ability over him. So since she knows it’s the Bible, she wouldn’t tell Carnegie that she can read it. And plus, even if she did tell him but denied to read it, Carnegie couldn’t kill her due to her being the only one knowing Braille.

    This movie is an excellent commentary on religion and how we interact with it. Eli represents those who truly believe its teachings and takes its overall messages to heart, whereas Carnegie represents those who CLAIM to believe only to use those messages to further their own goals to the detriment of others. As a Christian myself, this central message was the biggest selling point for me. Eli saw these teachings as a genuine hope for the future, whereas Carnegie saw it as a tool to control others.

The scene with the old people kept me up at night for a few days. Whenever I hear the song "Ring My Bell" it reminds me of it (and also Mila Kunis smiling like it's the first she's ever heard music, which is nice).... then the old man says "I think we have a little meat somewhere" and pulls out the human sandwiches...

    10/10 Beautiful and dynamic musical score, flawless world building, A+ fight scenes, PERFECT characters. Great ending and a great message for a great movie Also, The Book Of Eli had SO MUCH wasted potential, that it's astounding to me how people just gave up and forgot it, other than the movie, i haven't seen anything else about this story, which is ridiculous, because this could have become so much more If the creators followed the movie up with prequel or sequel content, it would have become one of the most mainstream movie series of all time for sure, if they made a series about it, it would have rivaled classics like The Walking Dead and Breaking Bad, if they made comics about it, they would have probably competed with MARVEL comics My idea is 1 prequel movie, 2 sequel movies, and a 2 season series Prequel: it shows what life was like for young Eli, how the apocalypse really happened and showcases his early journey heading west Sequels: the first one shows Solara protecting the town that used to be governed by Carnegie, she keeps the people away from the brink of chaos while setting an example, and in the sequel, Solara dies protecting the people, leaving the legacy of her and Eli's faith to the people of that town to carry on Miniseries: the first season shows the journey Solara took on in order to get back home with her mother, maybe in the way she runs into and finally ends the gang that attacked her and Eli in the first movie, freeing the woman they were using as bait for so long, the second season shows how the people of Alcatraz finally went out to the outside world to spread all the knowledge they had compilated while perhaps showcasing new villains, baiting the audience to more seasons or movies THERE, if they had done something like that with the story, you would have one of the best franchises ever, probably of all time

    There are so many moments like this that are super subtle and you don't notice them until you watch a second time. He doesn't shoot the cat until it meows. He doesn't acknowledge the hanging man's boots until he feels them. He backs up into the darkness under the overpass to put his attackers at a disadvantage. He kicks the front step with his boot without looking, so he knows where it is (Solara on the other hand, looks down at it).
