In This Is the End, Seth Rogen, James Franco, and a handful of other famous funny people find themselves in the middle of the End Times. After the good people of the world ascend into Heaven via a Star Trek-esque blue beam, everyone else — including pretty much every Hollywood actor you can name — struggles to survive amid one seriously supernatural disaster.
Though the movie is set in L.A., the landscape of its final days looks a lot like, well, Florida. Here’s how this summer’s stoner movie proves that the Sunshine State truly is Hell on Earth.
1. It all starts with a sinkhole.
Kind of like this one that opened up in Tampa this past March:
When news happens, Miami New Times is there —
Your support strengthens our coverage.
We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to you. If Miami New Times matters to you, please take action and contribute today, so when news happens, our reporters can be there.
2. Then things get really hot.
Kind of like summer in Miami:
3. Can’t nobody drive.
Sound familiar?
4. Survivors hoard bottled water.
Hurricane supplies, hello!
5. Suddenly: Giant reptiles!
Bow down and appease your python overlords now, Florida.
6. And finally — spoiler alert — cannibals.
This Is the End opens in Miami this Wednesday, June 12.
