a5c7b9f00b Fifteen years after a permanent global blackout, a group of revolutionaries seeks to drive out an occupying force posing as the United States Government.
Our entire way of life depends on electricity. So what would happen if it just stopped working? Well, one day, like a switch turned off, the world is suddenly thrust back into the dark ages. Planes fall from the sky, hospitals shut down, and communication is impossible. And without any modern technology, who can tell us why? Now, 15 years later, life is back to what it once was long before the industrial revolution: families living in quiet cul-de-sacs, and when the sun goes down lanterns and candles are lit. Life is slower and sweeter. Or is it? On the fringes of small farming communities, danger lurks. And a young woman's life is dramatically changed when a local militia arrives and kills her father, who mysteriously - and unbeknownst to her - had something to do with the blackout. This brutal encounter sets her and two unlikely companions off on a daring coming-of-age journey to find answers about the past in the hopes of reclaiming the future.
I got stuck in Central Asia with blocked access to movie databases, so I decided to buy this DVD to watch while I&#39;m waiting for my business to move. The idea of no electricity is nothing new if anyone has ever travelled to 3rd world country. I myself grew up in 3rd world country and lol the show shows that creators have no clue what it means to live without electricity and functional government.<br/><br/>Below contains spoilers (Don&#39;t read further if you want to watch the show - Generally don&#39;t watch it) <br/><br/><ul><li>For a starter, most of self sufficient communities without electricity would never be able to sustain overweight people like they do in Revolution, in times of poverty in 3rd world countries people usually live on 800-900 calories a day, yet in the opening we have, after 15 years of no electricity, the whole bunch of healthy looking teen, over weight people, how&#39;s that even possible?</li></ul><br/><br/><ul><li>Further more, how did the Americans wasted all ammo within 15 years? Right now according to stats there are over 350 million guns owned and a lot more bullets in the US, how did it all disappeared within 15 years? Unless there was a real hot revolution, where Americans just shot non stop everyday, I just can&#39;t understand why only 19th century rifles and swords are left. Not cool :(</li></ul><br/><br/><ul><li>Characters are absolutely awkward and fake.</li></ul><br/><br/><ul><li>The amulet it&#39;s just ridiculous, how does that work, what&#39;s a science or imaginary science fiction behind it?</li></ul>
Revolution is a post-apocalyptic science fiction television drama series using many action/adventure scenes to develop the plot. The drama begins with all electrical power on planet Earth turning off over the space of a few minutes. The reason for the loss of power is explained using flash-backs during several episodes in Season 1. As a consequence of the loss of power, the United States has splintered into a handful of regional governments, with the Monroe Republic, named for its leader, Bass Monroe, being the primary focus of the series. The focus of the main characters is to restore the power and either overthrow Bass Monroe, or destroy the rebels, depending on which of the characters you&#39;re considering.<br/><br/>I enjoy the show because of the ongoing development of the characters and the back-stories, the strength of the acting (including Billy Burke, Giancarlo Esposito, David Lyons, Elizabeth Mitchel and Zak Orth), and the shattered backgrounds used for various scenes.<br/><br/>It is science fiction, and requires the viewer&#39;s willing suspension of disbelief. Nit-pickers focusing their unhappiness on scenes that aren&#39;t possible seem to have overlooked that primary requirement of enjoying science fiction. Unlike the Star Trek series regular sacrifice of only a red-shirted member of the security detail, but no recurring characters, this series has already killed off at least five recurring characters. This adds an element of danger, suspense and (science fiction) realism that is refreshing.

Guns do work. There&#39;s many scenes of characters using guns. However, the country the main characters live in, The Monroe Republic, has outlawed private firearms ownership. Most of the guns are in the possession of the authorities or criminals.<br/><br/>In addition, it&#39;s been commented by several characters that ammunition for modern, pre–Blackout, firearms is essentially impossible to manufacture* and thus rare. It&#39;s use is reserved mainly for important militia uses. Even rank and file militia members have resorted to using black powder weapons. A flashback scene in the first season fall finale shows fierce fighting in the early years of the blackout and General Monroe comments that they are running out of ammunition and will soon need to ration it.<br/><br/>*This of course doesn&#39;t explain how people in the pre-electricity era had copper jacketed bullets for use in their S&amp;W six-shooters and Winchester rifles. Most local gun clubs have members that regularly make new ammo by refilling their spent cartridges and casting their own bullets. Not every technological ramification of the Blackout will be shown immediately, but we do see across the first season that some of these technologies do still exist. There&#39;s at least one working steam train in the Monroe Republic and bicycle are in use in some urban areas for transportation. Diesel is used to power electric engines, so just as gas powered engines do not work, neither does diesel engines.<br/><br/>There are some diesels that will start without glow plugs, but they are larger industrial engines. But, even so, getting such an engine started in cold weather would be very difficult as hand cranking would not be easy to accomplish. While obesity rates have increased in the modern era, and particularly among wealthier nations, obesity is by no means dependent on a modern consumer society. There have always been obese people and will always be obese people. The in story explanation is that whatever happened caused systems to fail over the course of several seconds. Some failed before others. Modern airplane controls are electronic so the rudder and flap control would have been lost along with the shutdown of the jet engines but there is no good explanation why every jet would enter a flat spin instead of just diving at high rates of speed. Pilots on one of their discussion forums claim it is hard to put an airliner into a flat spin so having all of them perform the maneuver would not have occured.<br/><br/>But not all modern aircraft would go into a dive. 737&#39;s would revert to manual reversion. If would make the aircraft very difficult to land but it could be done.<br/><br/>The real reason that the lighting was still on is that television is a visual medium and it&#39;s much more visually effective to allow the characters to look around and see the lights flickering out than it is to have them all just suddenly go out for no reason.<br/><br/> The cities were largely abandoned, soon after the electricity stopped. The Matheson family was shown walking away from their home, with what they could haul in a child&#39;s wagon. As they walked through the streets, they were nearly alone. Almost everyone has fled from the city.<br/><br/>All cities would become uninhabitable, soon after such a disaster. In the immediate aftermath, there would be widespread looting, and other violence. Then there would be shortages of food, medicine and other essentials. Within weeks, disease would spread throughout any areas of concentrated population. People would flee, to escape the violence and disease, and to seek food.<br/><br/>Well-built buildings can last a long time – if they&#39;re occupied and maintained. Deserted buildings soon start to fall into disrepair, and then decay. In the second episode, we see buildings burning, and no fire departments to respond. The fire fighters have probably left – and even if they were still there, their equipment no longer worked. It&#39;s apparent that looters have vandalized many buildings. Vandalized buildings decay rapidly.<br/><br/>We don&#39;t need to imagine what happens to unoccupied buildings, that have suffered from vandalism. Just search for photographs of the urban decay in Detroit, over the last couple of decades.US Governments created a nano technology that absorbs electricity. It was originally used to remove the power of a third world country as a way to quickly win a war, yet a problem occurred which resulted in a world-wide blackout.<br/><br/>There are several hundred trillions of these nano technology robots around the world It takes days to weeks to properly shut down a nuclear plant so that there is no meltdown of the core and years to decades to properly decommission a plant so what happened to them? Why no nuclear fallout?<br/><br/>It&#39;s possible they are still running or have been shut down carefully after 15 years.. The nanites that absorb electricity might be destroyed by the radiation of the fuel or there maybe a field around the plants similar to how the amulets work to shut off surrounding nanites giving the military time to shut down the plants.
