The man who wrote the Mayan calendar didn't get sick of writing it, he just died before he could finish it.

I agree; I want to see another deep impact style movie- i loved that movie!
I'm not the biggest fan of that kind of movie myself (though they can, occasionally, be exactly the kind of mindless flick one wants to watch).
I just meant that I don't see any pretense about 2012 being anything but a disaster movie. And those definitely have their niche.
They make all of these films about how the world ends, why can't we have a film about the end of Michael Bay? I really want to see a Michael Bay disaster film. That is, not a disaster film about Michael Bay, but a film about Michael Bay being a disaster (and I am not refering to his film making, although that is a disaster).

What I wouldn't give to see Michael Bay erupt in Bayquakes and see huge fissures form on his body, before he finally collapsed in a heap of dust while people run away, screaming in orgasmic joy terror for their lives.

More lies!

He knows that 2013 will not happen, so seeks to cloud the issue by claiming it will happen. This proves that 2013 will not happen! What more evidence do we need? IanBrazen is obviously from Alpha Draconi and has been sent by the Reptoid Empire [http://www.nibiruancouncil.com/html/reptilians.html] seeking to stop us from transcending when Nibiru gets here in 2012.

What you are doing is wrong sir. If you keep this up you will be reported to the Galactic Federation of Worlds [http://www.nibiruancouncil.com/html/galacticfederation.html].

EDIT: In seriousness, I hate that damn website.

http://www.nibiruancouncil.com/

Not for all the crap about the galactic federation of light or whatever, but the use of the word "Workshop". Anyone who uses the word "workshop", who isn't involved in light engineering, is a wanker.

Ahh the GFW they have always been a thorn of goodness in the side of my mostly evil backside.
HOWEVER (pause for effect) I do not work for whom you say, I am actually an agent of lord XENU.
(apology's to all Scientologists...I think.)

This may reflect poorly on me, but I LIKED The Day After Tomorrow.

As for the world ending in 2012, I'll be doing the same thing I was doing on New Years Eve, 1999: Hiding in the basement up to my elbows in Spam and bottled water while clutching a 16 gauge shotgun. (Yes, I'm paranoid, but as years of video gaming and tabletop gaming have taught me: "If you're not paranoid, you're dead")

I recently posted on a thread about "the last thing to make you angry".
when I realized that I need to share my anger with everyone else in the hopes that I will keep people from seeing this movie (even though it wont).
So here is what I posted,




Well I went to see a wonderful film yesterday ("this is it") and when I went into the theater I was immediately assaulted by the newest disaster film under the guise of an actual movie, 2012.
Listen people,
People say that the Mayans predicted the end of the world occurring on this date, but those people are completely

The Mayan calender doesn't predict doom, it just ends, probably because the person writing got sick of his job.
In fact here is a quote from Wikipedia if you all think I'm talking out of my pasty white ass.

"The idea of a global event occurring in 2012 based on any interpretation of the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar is rejected as pseudoscience by the scientific community, and as misrepresentative of Maya history by Mayanist scholars."

the world will not end on 2012, I promise.

Now about the movie.
So far I am very very unimpressed with what I have seen, the only plot I got out of it is "Stuff gets blown up, run away."
Sure the CG is impressive, but CG does not a good movie make, and no amount of John Cusack can save it.
Some people are ok with watching priceless monuments and world wonders getting destroyed but I would like a little more bang for my buck. (no pun intended)
You may say "but how can a movie about shit getting annihilated possibly be boring?"
I would say, just watch "The day after tomorrow."
but if you want to know about this particular film then I have two other movies you should look up made by the same people.
1. Godzilla (1998 remake)
2. 10,000 B.C.
I shouldn't have to say anything else, but I will say that these jokers ruined Godzilla for me for about 8 years.
there is not any apology that can make up for that.

Does anyone else feel the way I do about this movie,
or am i just pissing in the wind?
I agree with you 100 %. It's a lot like that other movie the same guy made, "The Day After Tomorrow"; a movie with a retarded plot based in nothing in reality except a doomsday theory with very little actual grounding in reality. The whole movie was just a series of pointless special affects.

2012 is Roland Emmerich once again using peoples fears to make a quick buck. Its the same shit over and over again, with whatever people are scared of at the time (aliens, global warming, an ancient calender) destroying famous buildings. Im surprised he hasnt made a a movie about a world-wide pandemic yet.

I think the global warming nuts will disagree with you.
"The Day After Tomorrow" is right next to "An Inconvenient Truth" in their dvd racks.
damn now I have to buy carbon credits so they wont feel insulted about this.

The difference between the global warming and the other stuff is that there is loads of evidence for it.

It won't happen in terms of rapid disaster like The Day After Tomorrow, but long term it could be pretty catastrophic.

I'd like to bring to attention the magnetic qualities awesome monuments have to attract devastating disasters. From the looks of all these movies, an underdeveloped region would be your best bet.

I was half joking. But all kidding aside, no matter how bad things get they won't wind up like they did in the day after tomorrow, that was fiction.

I like how a disaster movie is called 2012, perhaps after 2012 olympics? I'm British and i know, and can admit, it will be terrible.

I've considered seeing this movie, because there's a theatre on my block, i really should.
British people don't say block.
Come out of your costume.
And never come back.
Also, they don't say theatre much either.
LOL, what?=]
Yes we do, well i do, though that's because i live on a city 'block' (as in surrounded by roads) in London.
Theatre, well i'm from Ireland, so if not theatre, what do you TRUE BRITS, call a movie theatre?

Or is this a class thing?
I'm from Ireland as well, actually.
Why would an Irish person say they're British, anyway? Oh, and pretty much everyone in Ireland, in my experience, has always said cinema. Or pictures. Or films. Or, in rare cases, movies.
But not theatre.
Also, nice clearing up on the block thing. I thought you meant the classic Yank's block.

To the rest of the Escapist, Yank is not always an offensive term. It is just what we call Americans.

Ooh, and a funny thought occurs.
Everyone who believes this shit will be fucking made fun of for the REST OF THEIR LIFE. The first day will be so embarassing for them.
Roll on... what is it, November 21, 2012?
I want to see their faces, mainly. Embarassed. I am evil by definition.

Wrong again. It will happen on Friday, 21st of December, 2012, at 11:11:11.

The clock is ticking [http://www.timeanddate.com/counters/customcounter.html?month=12&day=21&year=2012&hour=11&min=11&sec=11&p0=0].

It isn't too late for you all to wake up to this. Do not be fooled by the agenda of the Orion Reptoids [http://www.greatdreams.com/reptlan/reps.htm] who are really the ones controlling our planet, up until recently anyway. The recent events (such as Obama being elected and the credit crunch) can be directly attributed to this actions of the Andromedan Council causing the reptoids to leave:

The Andromedan Council has ordered all extraterrestrial presences on the planet, in the planet, and on the moon to be completely out of our space. They want everything that's ET, benevolent or not, off the planet. This will be very interesting since there are over 1,833 reptilians living in our planet and over 18,000 grays living underground and on the moon. The council would like to see how we will live with each other when we are not being manipulated by ETs, as we have been for the last 5,723 years.
It is amazing how people can't see the truth. The problem is the Illuminati still have all the power. People need to fight back!

I was born, and raised in the Republic of Ireland, then moved to England, then America, Off to Canada for a little while, back to America, then i flew back home to Ireland, and now i'm living in England again, so i'm a British citizen. British.
Needless to say, i've quite a lot of airmiles. that and quite a large over-draft.
