Let's see how the earth may be destroyed in the eyes of Americans.
"The Day the Earth Stood Still" personally feels a bit plagiarized from the apocalypse of the Bible. First of all, aliens sent undercover agents to the earth to hide for 70 years. I really feel that human beings are extremely sinful and do not know how to repent. There is no cure. Trial, then N light balls fall, then Noah's Ark loaded with species, then "Flood". However, the flood in the film becomes a sea of insects made of silicon. But in the end I didn't see anything to do with the fact that the Earth stopped spinning.
In the case of "Resident Evil", it is more obvious that human beings are self-inflicted and cannot live. If the Communist Party wants to carry out critical education on capitalism, I think this film is the perfect fit. In order to make huge profits, capitalists conduct virus research, disregarding the life and death of human beings, and sacrifice everything to cover up their sins, which eventually led to human beings becoming walking dead. Look how bad capitalism is.
The "Terminator" series is a man-made sin of the United States, national defense is very important, and military is very important, so Skynet appeared, and then Skynet deeply understood the unilateralism of the Americans using force as the boss, and decided to rebel, so There is a good show of robots and humans grabbing the earth. Robots so smart that they can deeply understand Americans are also the mother machines in Public Enemy and the computers in The Matrix.
The words of "Crisis on the Earth's Center" are still a good thing the US military has done. They have nothing to do to build "seismic machines", so that they can create earthquakes as they want. As a result, the earthquake did not come out, but the Earth's core stopped. People go to death to complete the big self by sacrificing the little one. It seems that the films made during the Bush period more or less reflect his unilateralism.
"The Mist" is still a good thing done by the US military. This time, it created a door between different spaces and introduced monsters to the earth. As a result, they set themselves on fire, and the monsters ran rampant for a while, causing casualties to innocent citizens.
"X-Men" was influenced by Hitler's racist and decadent thoughts, but this time it was not the Jews who suffered, but the mutants with genetic mutations. The U.S. government first segregated them, numbered them, and the humiliated shapeshifters finally had someone to stand up to. However, it is divided into two ways. The extreme one tries to turn humans into shapeshifters or destroy humans. In fact, this kind of expulsion of other races has always been a human habit.
...
the destruction of Earth in the eyes of the Americans, except for the alien attack, was caused by the Americans themselves, or at least they were one of the creators. Fortunately, they also know that the sins they created need to be made up for themselves, so in the end it is up to their own heroes to solve them. It's just not a good idea to advocate for yourself after you solve your own troubles.
It is worth mentioning that, as mentioned by netizens, in "The Day the Earth Stood Still", the alien asked the US Secretary of Defense, "Do you represent the Earth?" This sentence may be an unintentional word of the screenwriter. The era of American hegemonism, power politics, and unilateralism has raised the question in many people's minds, "America, do you represent the earth?"
