Today's "This Modern World" by Tom Tomorrow at Daily Kos ... At the link, Tom was in the trial's press room today, so you can also read his notes and observations.

From NWS Melbourne on Zombie Twitter:

"Sun 5/19 | Rounds of isolated to scattered storms are expected through the day, with a greater risk of severe storms this afternoon and evening. Large hail, damaging winds, and even a tornado cannot be ruled out. Stay weather aware!"

Captain's Log, Supplemental ...

Reading online, someone said that a particular location in the third act is labelled CORONADO, which would put it down by San Diego. This is what the Coronado bridge looks like, doesn't strike me as similar to what we see in "Kingdom."

* Much of the location is overgrown with vegetation and collapsed infrastructure, but in at least one scene we see (overgrown) a pedestal with the V-shape atop. That matches the elevated car pool lane about the 110 (Harbor) Freeway, the third photo below.

* Most of the third act occurs near a collapsed bridge. It might be the Vincent Thomas bridge in San Pedro ... If 200-300 years have passed, almost certainly L.A. had a major quake that could have collapsed these structures. (3/x)

The location is not given, however enough Easter eggs lead me to conclude it's Los Angeles:

* There's a scene where Noa, Raka, and Mae are riding away. In the background, you see on the horizon a shape just like the first image below. Without a doubt, that's the LAX Theme Building.

* From there, they wander into an observatory. The only candidate in the area is the Griffith Observatory (second photo below). Not quite the same, but close enough.

There was a time, ten years ago, when this was funny ... It turned out to be prophetic.

This is the hourly weather forecast for Cocoa Beach. Methinks I'm not going to the lap pool this morning.

The Force is with you, young Skywalker ...
