another month of terrible games for ps plus, whoopee
---------------------------------------
great idea for a movie: the apocalypse happens and society ends and then years later a surviving generation come out of caves with no knowledge of the old world and the only surviving pieces of culture are DVDs of sitcoms
the friends from Friends and various patrons from Cheers become the new gods and are split between two pantheons. The Friends religion and the Cheers religion go to war and it's like the crusades or something and people are fighting over whether Ross or Frasier are the true god
That sounds absolutely fire. Reminds me of the Kings from
Fallout: New Vegas. Might as well have '90s nostalgia in general as the defining cultural precedent for your post-apocalyptic society. Max Max style skateboards, ratty neon Starter jackets, '90s boy band pop hits on HitClips as a valued commodity, high-stakes pog games, Nintendo 64 controllers as boomerangs... go hog wild man! Don't let your dreams just be dreams.
I know this is unsolicitied, but I too like to worldbuild and have these elaborate ass highdeas. My own post-apocalyptic novel's universe has a band of Disney-worshipping cultists in Mickey Mouse hats. Their pantheon consists of characters from Disney's movies and a ramshackle, fortress-like DisneyWorld is their base of operations and holy city. They duke it out in the misty, irradiated death zone of Florida against a roving band of drug-peddling, mumble-rapping raiders with multicolored dreadlocks and face tattoos.
There are also actual Crusaders: the Holy Dominion of the New Vatican which is like a radical traditionalist Catholic ISIS with a serious middle ages fetish. My novel will basically be about the main characters wrecking the Dominion's sh*t and starting a revolution against them. My protagonist is an anarchist / Satanist / communist who's like a mix between the Punisher, Che Guevara, and the frontman for an old-school death metal band. He brands an upside down cross into his own forehead at one point, and tortures a dude by hog-tying him and shoving sticks of dynamite up his ass. When he's one of the good guys, you know you're in for one grimdark world.
