2012: Out Now!!!

It looks cool, but i feel like this is going to be just like The Day After Tommorrow and the movie will end when John Cusack's family is safe, and the rest of the world won't matter.

Also, did anyone catch what it said on the "2012" logo at the end of the trailer? All I could make out was "Apocalypse".

also said End Of Days. It looked like it had a bunch of different saying on the end of the world
 
Would've been crazier releasing it in 2012 late november early december. Would definitely add to the freaking out thats going to happen around that time

That's what I thought too, but based on this, I guess the director wants us to shit in our pants for 3 years.

Wow that trailer was a lot better than that crappy teaser a few months ago with the monk.

Yea I agree, that family will end up safe while everyone else dies and they escape in a spaceship of sorts and live on the moon.

Is that really happening? I'm amused at the thought. "Oh, those long dead Mayans, trying to get us to believe that the 5,125 year cycle of the pre-Columbian Mesoamerican calendar is near its end, and the world along with it. When will people see through their propaganda?"

That's pretty archeologically-savvy fear-mongering.

Anyway. Looks retarded. I'm sure I'll see it. :)

It's not fear-mongering on the part of the Mayans and their arbitrarily-ending calendar. It's on the part of people selling books and movies about the end of the world.

I just don't subscribe to any grand theories regarding the end of the world. Sure, it'll end, but it'll happen slowly over time, not on some specific day. Although I can't wait for the lead up to December 21, 2012. It's gonna be like y2k times a billion.

No one's bothered by the fact that this guy directed The Day After Tomorrow? They are going to be the same damn films

It is not just the Mayans that predicted 12/21/2012. Also it is not the end of the world but this cycle.

As for the movie it does look like it is going to be like The day after tomorrow only with the Mayan, Hopi Indian and others 2012 predictions.
 
i could believe the end is near. shit is crazy and i dunno if its just that these types of stories get more attention or is it all happening more and more. no matter where i live i always try and figure out a few places to head to in case the shit hits the fan in any number of ways. still want to get a gun and a concealed carry liscense before obama makes it illegal.

Seriously? Well there ya go.

John Cusack and his family will be safe, while the movie will end without us knowing what the fuck happened to the rest of the world. Bullshit if you ask me.

We can stop the apocalypse with an iMac.

don't forgetting risking your life and the lives of your pals by WALKING in blizzard conditions to NYC to save your son who is nice and warm in the library.

Everyone loves a good disaster movie...as long as it's not made by NBC.
 
That looked fucking terrible. I'll probably still see it eventually just because it'll be pretty, but really? Do you have to be that "zomg look how fucked up the end of the world is" to have a crack split the Sistene Chapel RIGHT between Adam and god?
 
Oh it works now.
You know the main character guy is going to have some lame ass government type job that helps him keep his family safe.


The biggest problem with these films is akin to a Nascar race: You don't give a sh*t about whats going on during the race, you just want to see the destruction.
 
yeap its better to be crushed by a airplane carrier if you know the name of the ship LOL

USS Kennedy


first weekend this movie will EASY make 200 million....

They should of released it JULY 3


I STILL WANT ID4 PART 2


LOL IF you keep the trailer running a best buy ad pops up

I did see one of the kids playing with a PSP early in the trailer. Maybe they'll use that to stop the apocalypse instead. ;)

Umm, exactly, but that's the whole point I thought. I'll see it. I love John Cusack.
 
I hope everyone is actually going to see this movie for explosions and apocalypse rather than plot.
 
Yea, but the point is, why sit through a garbo movie just to see destruction that you have already seen before? Obviously no one would go to see the plot
 
I really hope that is an early animation of the Sistene Chapel falling. It just looks like crap and to over the top. Also not to get off topic but slidecage unless they canned it their is/was work on ID4 part 2.
 
After seeing that limo ride scene I'm now worried this movie is going to be excessively stupid.

EDIT - After watching that other trailer someone posted, I'm now more worried.
 
Meh, this movie looks like a pretty standard end-of-the-world disaster movie. John Cusack seems like the only saving grace. I'll probably wait for the DVD.
 
Didn't see this in the thread -- perfectly sums up the movie trailers.


I'll still be seeing it, though. I love disaster porn.
 
I went with my friends a few mins ago....I rarely watch trailers and such so the only thing I knew about this movie was everyone was talking about it. I thought it was going to be more serious.

The ending though....
when they announce that Africa's mountains were the new highest mountain and the continent of Africa was rising..."we" cheered.

Until we realized that in the wide shot it was just a slew of white people looking to embark the new super continent.

Something never change....

and I thought it was a weird choice to have that blonde woman drown. The theatre cheered for her during that one scene and next thing you know...she's dead. Everyone was confused. And one more thing....they built the greedy white man's character to perfection. The man was so cut throat that he didn't even give his free ticket to his own mama! Not even his favorite prositute or his barber or some random person. Now that'a cut throat!
 
Turned on the news today, and lo and behold the nutjobs have come out of the woodwork about the end of the world really happening in 2012.

I won't watch this movie until like I dunno 2014?
 
saw a news story that they are taking all of those Y2K books and redoing them for 2012.. just replacing the year 2000 with 2012..

saw one person saying the earth is going to explode on that day and to get ready they are going to make a bomb shelter.... Dude if the world is going to explode a bomb shelter isnt going to do you any good : )
 
bread's done
