As disaster movies go, this looks pretty impressive. I also like John Cusak. Could be a belter!

Saw a trailer for this the other day. Might be a fun SFX movie but the plot looked a bit daft to me.
I'll always go see a Roland Emmerich film. The science is always obscenely wrong, his characters typically flat and badly underdeveloped, and he's been known to use deus ex machina to keep the "plot" moving...
...but...
Somehow his films are just so damn entertaining. Mindless popcorn munchers with a load of giggles and amused head-shaking.

:pop: lol :shake:
At least we can say there's no Mel Gibson.
Oh man, I knew about this from the moment it was mentioned on the ARG thread over on Unforum. I almost shat bricks when I saw how the trailer changed from the simple wave over the Himalayan mountains to what it is now. 2012's been coming up a lot lately and it keep reminding me of that movie. I'm always up for a good end of the world movie, and with the main Idea being the main disastrous thing that have people worried, I'm totally going to see it.
I'm excited! <3
When 2012 comes can I have your stuff?

Quote from: "Tom62"Yep, and plot holes that are large enough to drive a tank through :pop: :D
yes you are right its outstanding movie but its kind of imagination i can,t thing its going happen in near future or future .some times such movie create bad effect on human mind or can support rumors.
Heh. I forgot i started this thread. I actually saw 2012 the other week. Nice to look at but pretty crappy otherwise. Not sure why i was so excited about it
Better than I expected, but still not a good movie. Great visuals, but Roland's usual mix of junk all throughout too. Was worth going to see if you knew what to expect.
Im so sick of all this 2012 end of the world madness. I will most likely watch the movie though. Im addicted to movie popcorn.
I came across people who were commenting on a local news coverate facebook post about 2012....the idiots thought the whole 2012 end times crap was only a marketing ploy for the movie and didn't realize that the movie is the result of idiot religious people (probably like themselves) who like to make shit up.
Haven't seen this movie yet but I'm pretty excited! I didn't know that they actually thought that this is going to happen in real life due to some magnetic something, not quite sure, but will be interesting to see

A lot of the 2012ers on youtube seem to
want the end of the world to happen, just so they will be proved rght...

Yeah. It's pretty stupid to believe, but at the same time, it would be so cool if the world really did end.
Cool? Yeah right. The world ending is only "cool" if you're the one who get's to push the big shiny button.
Those crazy Mayans secretly living in the core of the Earth!
Heh, i just found this:

We were discussing this movie on another forum I frequent, and came to the following synopsis for this movie:
[spoiler:3vi1k0c0]disaster porn[/spoiler:3vi1k0c0]
Hello,
Just went for movie last night. Well, i don't think its a good movie at all.
Kinda bored, no doubt there are many cool action part but story wise is worse.
Have you watch 2012 ??
It may be the worst movie I've ever seen. So many things with it that doesen't make any sence at all. (Unless you believe Noah buildt an ark).
Im not interested in watching it, but Im curious. what caused the disaster?
a spoiler tag here, or maybe a pm?

They cover this in like the first 10 minutes so it's not really a spoiler, but I'll tag it anyway
[spoiler:21unprfb]A massive solar flare emits a larger-than-normal amount of neutrinos at the earth. These neutrinos create a microwave effect, causing the core of the earth to increase in temperature rapidly. They do not go on to explain exactly why this would case widespread natural disasters like those depicted in the movie.[/spoiler:21unprfb]
And if you really want to know the science behind this
[spoiler:21unprfb]There isn't any. Also, by the times you finish reading this you have absorbed roughly 1 quadrillion neutrinos, assuming it took you 20 seconds to read this.[/spoiler:21unprfb]
right right.. well I didnt expect anything with (to much) intelligence anyway
