Week 10- Destruction Myth Sighting

I was scrolling through Netflix's "Watch Instantly" section, and I began to remember all of these movies that talked about the end of the world. I own three of them: The Day After Tomorrow (the world is being destroyed because of the melting polar ice caps that change the currents of the oceans causing huge and deadly storms), Independence Day (the world is being attacked by aliens), and The Mummy: The Dragon Emperor (the world will be taken over be an immortal chinese emperor and his army). There are numerous movies similar to those, such as 2012, Armageddon, The Core, Cloverfield, The Day the Earth Stood Still, I Am Legend, and Transformers.  All of these movies are centered around the world being attacked and/or destroyed by either extraterrestrial/divine/immortal beings, nature, or disease. However, what I did notice is that none of the movies I can think of end up with everyone and everything being completely destroyed. There is always a glimmer of hope that the human race will overcome the odds and survive. Maybe the screenwriters didn't want to depress people. But maybe it shows humans' innate will to survive, the extinct to fight and hopefully win. We don't want to be destroyed, and these movies raise our hopes that we ultimately won't.
