2012

Here's the trailer for 2012
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyCCd8MCcZY

Looks to be a lot better then Day After Tomorrow in terms of destruction.

I love John Cusack, but Roland Emmerich needs to get a new schtick.

I'll be there opening night. Love my disaster flicks. More than likely, will stop by after a day of pre-X-Mas shopping.

F*ck this. I hope the world ends before this just so I don't have to put up with everyone running around like ninnies ala Y2K bug bullsh*t.

Why would anyone listen to one out of a fu*king million cultures?

Then maybe you should check Legion. It's got a peculiar twist to Armageddon, judging by the trailers anyways.

Way to completely miss his point. It seems like you have no comprehension.

Hey, what's with all the insults, I didn't hurt anyone! I thought the forums were to talk about things we like, not to bash other members. Isn't that against the forums rules?

You know, I wasn't going to say anything else. I just thought it was silly to bring back the TMNT should be Rated R argument in a thread that had nothing to do with it, which I didn't even insult you. I found your response a lot more insulting. If this is the game you want to play, then fine.

I don't have a problem with apocalyptic movies, I do have a problem with fear mongering with the idea of making money.

I didn't think you did have a problem with apocalyptic movies. I think I get where you're coming from with being tired of everyone jumping on the same freak out bandwagons, so it's kind of why I threw in the Legion trailer. Maybe that would be more your cup of tea on the Armageddon scenario.

But, I still like my end of the world flicks, and will be there opening weekend. I also have a few family members that are going apesh!t over the 2012 crap., and they would have been dragging me anyways if I liked it or not. But, seeing an aircraft carrier crashing into Washington D.C. should be worth the ticket price.

I am anticipating Legion more though. Looks interesting, and Paul Bettany has a unique creepy presence on screen, and I will be looking forward to him.

This whole concept has been done to freaking death and back, but I never get tired of it. I've been loving the viral ads on Adult Swim. I thought it was some religious scare ad at first until I saw the "Film not yet rated" logo. Brilliant.

Love the creepy religious ad but disaster flicks aren't my taste.

I hate all this 2012 end of the world crap. I really don't want to go through another Y2K, watching people buy up all the bottled water and batteries. Some of them ran.

The trailer gave me chills. It's going to be a very fun movie to watch, though the level of destruction seems a bit too over-the-top. I can't wait to see what they plan to do with all the animals (the giraffe being airlifted broke my heart, but i LOL'd at the same time ;P )

then right at the end they have some movie-type stuff.

it got me though... I was litteraly cussing at my TV

Don't confuse acolypse with doomsday. Accolypse also means something new, like epic discovery or something. If you read Dan Brown's Lost Symbol you will know what I mean!
