Would the Terminator movies be included in this category? Those are more like science fiction/time travel movies, as the Terminator apocalypse hasn't actually happened in the timeframe of the movies.Anyway, I'll start off with Mad Max.Mad Max (1979): In an Australian dystopia of decaying order and violent highways, a police pursuit driver is drawn into a path of vengeance after a motorcycle gang targets him for the death of their former leader.Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (1981): Max is travelling in a post apocalypse Australia where Gasoline is the most valuable commodity. He becomes involved in a struggle between bandits and a town that has build defenses around a small refinery. He must cross the no man's land several times to allow them to make a dash for freedom, pursued by the bandits in their vehicles.Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985): Bartertown is a city on the edge of a desert that has managed to retain some technology if no civilization. Max has his supplies stolen and must seek shelter there in a post apocalypse world where all machines have begun to break down and barbarians hold what is left. He becomes involved in a power struggle in this third Mad Max film where he must first survive the town, survive the desert and then rescue the innocent children he has discovered. [Didn't like this one as much.]Plus, coming next year (knock on wood)...Untitled Mad Max 4 Film (2006): Mad Max, finally with us in his fourth incarnation, still wanders the wastelands of a post-apocalyptic Australian Outback.Anyway, besides Mad Max, which are your favorite post-apocolyptic movies? Are there any other good ones? And who, besides me, actually likes Waterworld (see below)? And what would you give to see a Gamma World movie?Waterworld (1995): Sometime in the future, the polar ice caps have melted and the world's oceans and seas have covered the land. People are few and far between, living in small communities at sea or sailing from one to another as traders. All the people seek dry land.. something nobody has seen.I know a lot of people hated this movie, but I thought it was strangely fascinating. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> Cheers!Knightfall1972</blockquote>
