Books, movies, video games.
Post them if you got 'em!

For movies, I really like Castaway and The Gray. Would Book of Eli be considered /out/?
Books I'd have to say Hatchet by Gary Paulsen. Great read.
Video games I'm not too sure on either. Fallout? Rust? DayZ?

Give me some media that is /out/ related and enjoyable. Wilderness survival, island survival, or post-apocalyptic.

I'm gonna second this recommendation. Probably one of the earliest and most realistic novels in the genre. If you enjoy humor I'd pick up some Bill Bryson, especially good to listen to on audiobook when on a walk.

Two Dan Beard classics:

American Boy's Handy Book (430 pages of everything and anything to be a jack of all trades while /out/, organised by seasons)

Shelters Shacks and Shanties (240 pages of every kind of shelter or /out/ home you could think of - from survival snow shelters, to snowball forts, to proper log homes).

Since these books are like a hundred years old there aren't ay earthships ^_^

It maybe hasn't aged great but, when Gun first came out? Man... running around that old-west landscape felt amazing.

Or maybe it has aged fine. I think I'll go play it and find out.

But it makes me want to run around outside.

If you haven't *actually* seen the movie but think you know all about it from banjos and shit, please just watch it before you judge.

it's one of the best movies ever made imho, and not only that but probably the movie most relevant to us as modern first world /out/ists

it's excellent and horrifying, not for the actual horror but for the situations and aftermath. i think many of are /out/tings could easily turn bad just like it did for them :s

rage is very much like mad max. its kind of awkward and disappointing (just feels incomplete for some reason), but is pretty fun for a short fix if you can find it for cheap. i got a solid few hours out of it before i gave up on it.

Whilst it's not specifically /out/, one of my all time favourite books is Good Vibrations: Coast to Coast by Harley by Tom Cunliffe.

As the title suggests it's a recount of a trip the author and his wife made across the US on two Harleys. As a city-bound Brit the book gives me hope that there's more out there then just cars and concrete.

Skyrim with immersion mods to add Hunger, Thirst, Sleep, Cold, and Disease along with other cool shit like weather and stuff makes for an awesome innawoods game. Don't even gotta play the main game. Just put yourself deep in the mountains or southern forests with barebones gear (the clothes on your back) and try to survive on the hardest settings. Shit's fucking hard but it is sooo much fun.

That was an alright game but it was a little short if you ask me. The only /out/ problem I had with it though was it felt like the transition between different eco-systems was too abrupt. One minute you're in the desert, cross a creek and now you're in a forest.

I hear banjos everytime I visit my cousins.

Was watching The Adventures of the Wilderness Family, old and kind of funny, crazy staged 'nature scenes' they would never get away with today.
