You can tell a whole lot about this globe of ours from the movies. You probably shouldn't, though — or you shouldn't take it too seriously, at least.
The Feed's Marc Fennell both does and doesn't — sure, he's written an armchair guide to Earth as projected on cinema screens, but he's obviously done so with a sense of humour. Questions such as "which nation is best equipped to survive an apocalypse?" and "which fictional country links Predator, Commando and Die Hard?" give that away, and we expect that hearing Fennell offer up the answers will be just as amusing.
