Zeno~SPARTA~ Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Movies are a source of knowledge for many, so let us count the ways in which the world has ended or will end. Earth was destroyed in 1951 when a rogue solar system drifted through ours, a few people got away on a rocket ship to one of the new planets. The earth suffered 2 near misses from huge asteroids 50 or so years later, thanks to heroic oil rig workers and other astronauts we are saved. New York has been hit several times by giant tidal waves as a result of small impacts. In 1953 the earth was swiftly overun by martians, luckily for us they were killed by deadly earth microbes, amusingly the same martians tried again in the 2000s with the same result, not too smart these martians. Earth suffered a similar fate at the hands of John Travolta, but this time some humans managed to learn how to fly ancient combat aircraft and beat the aliens. The earth was viciously attacked on the eve of independence day but Bill Pulman managed to rally a bunch or arma players who claimed they could fly and beat the evil aliens, but not before they destroyed New York. A giant space whale comes to the earth to look for relatives (who are extinct). His attempts at communicating with them is destroying the planet, luckily Will shatner steals a romulan warbird, goes back in time based on some mental arithmetic of the pointy eared Leonard Nimoy , retrieves a couple of whales and bring them back to san francisco, thus saving the world. The earth has been decimated countless times by Nuclear war, sometimes resulting in zombieism amongst the survivors. Sometimes bombs are guided onto there targets by riding on them. A couple of times these nuclear wars are started by accident. Interestingly scientists fiddling about with geophysics slow the rotation of the earths core, leading to cataclysmic events (which, unusually, do not include the destruction of New York). Another group of scientists and astronauts (but no oil rig workers) journey to the centre of the earth in a train made out of unobtainium and detonate a series of nuclear explosions which this time save the world. The surviving heroes are rescued due to whales singing to the stricken craft. The earth was destroyed by a conglemerate to make way for an intergalactic highway. Surprisingly (or maybe not), the dolphins, who had tried to warn us for years about the new highway, all left the earth. There was only one survivor. The earths human population has suffered terribly to plagues, mostly of their own creation. Interestingly sometimes resulting in zombieism. Luckily there have been survivors. As a side note always shoot zombies in the head, its the only way to be sure. A devilshly clever twist on our deadly microbes are the ones from outer space that come to the earth infecting everyone and transforming them in their sleep into mind numbed alternate humans, luckily a boys blood is resistant to the alien infection and we are saved. 2000 was the biblical end of days when lucifers hordes attempted to take our eternal souls, luckily Arnold Schwarzenegger sacrificed himself and saved us from that fate for another 1,000 years. However the earth will suffer from gigantic solar flares, which in one case will kill everything (except for a few children who are saved by aliens of the friendly kind). In 2012 it will happen again, but I wont spoil it for you. In the 2000s an alien is sent to the earth with a noisy penis to impregnate our women and take over the world by creating a new master race. A human kills the evil leader who is under the mistaken impression that the power of the mind is greater than 140 grains of lead. Wrong. Global warming has turned the planet into an amusement park called seaworld or waterwold, but more recently brought on the onset of an iceage, americans migrate to mexico for the long winter. Birds and pigs are trying to kill us with their flu, but in the 60s the birds took direct action against us, its not clear who was victorious. The planet suffers some cataclysm where apes become the dominant species sometime in the future. In an attempt to stop all the self inflicted mayhem Klaatu brings Gort to the earth in the 50s to act as policeman, judge, jury and executioner. However in an alternate universe Klaatu brings Gort to the earth to kill all humans. Once the earth was overun by fire breathing dragons that turned all before them to ash. Luckily a few survivors manage to kill the only male dragon, leading I presume to an unproductive but entertaining lesbian dragon lovefest. Conversely the human race was under threat for a while when women became infertile, luckily it turned out to be untrue as at least one women was pregnant. Saved again. humanity created a computer to handle it defence, That didnt turn out so well, the computer built machines to kill us all, but luckily Arnold Schwarzenegger sees the light and helps save the rebel leader a couple of times. In an unusual twist the earth is not destroyed but rendered uninhabitable in the 21st century due to runaway growth in the amount of rubbish. Everyone simply leaves the planet to live on a luxury space ship. They return thanks to a small waste disposal unit many centuries later. A huge monster, possibly from space, attacked New York with particular focus on 5 manhattanites. The Air force bomb manhattan in an attempt to destroy it. Previously a giant lizard from Japan (the result of Nuclear contamination) swims over to NY and wreaks havoc upon it. The army and airforce shoot missiles and 30mm rounds into it a lot of New York is destroyed. Unfortunately for humanity the first one is still alive and the the giant lizard has some offspring. The world may fall to these monsters yet. In reality the earth was obviously destroyed and only exists as a virtualisation of earth life at the galactic museum for natural history at Andromeda Prime.

Ebden~SPARTA~ Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Arthur Dent must be bringing us these stories from somewhere along the intergalactic highway which was never challenged in council and resulted in the demolition of the earth for an intergalactic bypass. It should be of little matter in light of progress, because "Space,...is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly hugely mindbogglingly big it is. I mean you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to space" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MedicSN6 Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 What about the one where the earth's core has stopped rotating and a team of scientists have to ride this metal horse to the center and detonate thermonuclear devices at precisely the right moments? Also, what about the one where this crazy mist takes over a grocery store and the surrounding country side then alien creatures start eating people and the crazy religious lady starts spewing bible, and just when the main guy thinks that all is lost, he shoots the few remaining people he knows including his son and some hot chick he could have banged a dozen or so times but didn't, the fog suddenly lifts and the army and a bunch of survivors roll through on military vehicles? (This qualifies and an epic run-on sentence.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatal_Papercut~SPARTA~ Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 We should also not forget Judgment Day, when the Machines rose up against Humanity. The Earth looked pretty trashed, but we've gone forwards and backwards in time so much, I can't tell if it's already happened or if this disaster is still pending.
