Took us what 50 years to go from steam to internal combustion , electric cars were actually invented before petrol ones too😳

When it first came out this movie was panned and mocked. But over the years Hollywood lost all originality and produced only rebooted crap. 2 decades of hollywood pumping out equine manure have made this movie a classic.

I am a Postman, have been for over ten years. The core honesty that is the impramature of EVERY Postman is well demonstrated in this movie. Overall, not a bad effort.

The underlying message of the movie is the importance of being able to communicate with one another when we live distances apart, and letters are the oldest form of communication.

The underlying message is that it is that communication which ties a society together. That's why the USPS is IN THE CONSTITUTION.

I can just imagine the old hands thrilling the new guys with stories about how they took on the holnists.

I think they should reboot this movie and make it have a connection to "Escape from LA" and other apocalyptic films. Maybe The Road and Book of Eli. Have a group band together or something like the Avengers did and save the US.

A straight postman reboot will be great with Chris Pine playing the Postman.

I guess the important theme about society being continually threatened by tyrants is lost on a lot of commentors. Besides being a little too long, this is a great movie. Especially now.

UPS, FEDEX and AMAZON hate this movie

For thousands of years and across the world, from Rome to Mongolia to the Andes....everywhere, the people who we call "mailmen" with near scorn...they were the "Messengers," "the Couriers," the threads that tied the world together. They were honored...cultures and myth made them Gods. And Angels, for they are messengers. Our electronic age makes mock of them now. Lonely people in dangerous times and lands who let us speak over distance. This movie shows that.

Whenever I come home after. 15 year day at the post office and my back is hurting and I look around at my dirt poor apartment and think how much my life sucks, I watch this movie as Hope in my miserable hourly wage life as a.....POSTMAN

That was me 😉

loved this movie! thank you

@Sean D' Heavenmount, the knowledge of technology was not lost. it did not have to be re-invented. think about our historical advancement, those born in the late 1800s, witnessed technology advance from horse buggies to sports cars, from believing man could never fly to landing on the moon, and all these technologies had to be invented from scratch, in this movie, all this tech is already known. the problem was the chaos and disorder of society.

Ivan Belinsky That's not the point. The point is that a lot of heroes have gotten statues built out of them. Hell, even a damn dog got one. Apart from the statue, the endings are different. Did TDKR have a flashback involving a boy at the end which matches the statue? No. Did TDKR actually end with a statue scene? No, it was literally a few seconds long and it wasn't even the exact end. By your logic, these films are ripping off history because real people, real heroes have gotten statues built out of them. The films just showed how realistic it would be for a large heroic person to get a statue, because it's happened in REAL LIFE. Get it now? If you still think there is a rip off still going on, you're a tool.

The majority of the movie takes place in 2013. The end scene in this clip is set over 30 years after the movie so based on the speech, I'm guessing they rebuilt. I don't see anything any more advanced than what was around in the 2000's. No one has a cell phone out. They're using very large camera's. My guess is it took decades to get them back to the level it was at before the war.

On a first draft of the Postman's script, the final scene with the monument unveiling was set on a village still similar to dilapidated post apocalyptic towns seen during the movie, only without walls and guard towers, hinting that while it would have reasonably taken tens of years to rebuild to a 1990 like level, at least the society was pacified anew.

So circa 2050 people are still dressed like the 1990s?🤔

The book went down a lot of roads that didn't lead anywhere - the Oracle computer subplot, and the existence of the 'retired' cyborg soldiers. Also there was a strong anti-patriarchy message written into the book's closing, one that at the time our society was not ready for (and still isn't). The movie screenplay based on David Brin's novel stands well on its own. The bit with Ford Lincoln Mercury meeting a fellow courier while in Holnist captivity was the ray of hope for me... because the other courier was relaying messages for another society entirely (I won't spoil which one).

The Dark Knight Rises ripped this off

Terrible movie overall, but absolutely *AMAZING* musical score (composed by James Newton Howard). The musical score really inspires a feeling of *_Hope_* when listening to it. How much so...? I own a hard-copy CD of the musical score, kept to this day (2017) and still occasionally listened to.
