The politics of small societies

It has nothing to do with the quality of this series, only the picture behind this type of series.

Inevitably, it was compared with Lost. In fact, the two dramas both talked about how a small human society under siege, in the face of external crises, derives different plots from micro-situations generated by different personalities after the collision. In fact, this is also the status quo of human society in the real world. Where there are people, there must be politics. On the vast earth, the drama of human nature is diluted by space and number of people. We live a boring life every day, we don't have to make life-and-death decisions from time to time, and we don't have to face the natural enemies who are fighting for the means of living. One day, when our social system falls apart, and we suddenly realize that we have fallen back into the law of the jungle, how will we respond?

A group of modern civilized people who were well-dressed before suddenly have to react and change to the new laws of survival. There will be a wonderful dramatic contrast between the two.

So I always think that one should not rely too much on a fixed lifestyle and social attitude.

The difference between this drama and Lost is almost the same as the difference between Oreo and Fun Duoduo. It is nothing more than adjusting some elements for different groups of people. For example, Spielberg said that the models of dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures that I left during the Jurassic period have been useless for a long time; Graves said that we should add some elements of disaster and horror; Fox said that we should also pay attention to the scale. During the family viewing period, you can almost play, don’t overdo it.

So Terra Nova was born.

As for the truth, don't bother to speculate. Because the truth has not yet been set, the screenwriter has to make adjustments to the main line from time to time based on the ratings and survey responses of each episode. This is a highly industrialized entertainment product.

Why go back to 85 million years ago? Because going back to the era before the extinction of the dinosaurs would have less impact on the history of modern mankind, and time immigrants can have enough time to find a way out for mankind.
