This is how the world ends... 2012 - with Roland Emmerich shooting it!
Hey folks, Harry here... I've taken a lot of shit for a very long time for being a fan of Roland Emmerich's. There was, of course, the infamous GODZILLA incident where the premiere was so amazing that it rendered my brain mush, and I praised the bejeesus out of it - only to see it in a regular setting 48 hours later and decreed myself temporarily insane. But otherwise - I've been a constant fan of his work. I like MOON 44, STARGATE, INDEPENDENCE DAY (which hasn't aged as well), PATRIOT and THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW (which I watched on Blu Ray last night and found it to be scarier today, than 4 years ago when it hit.
Next we have 10,000 B.C. coming out very soon. Starring the brooding boy from SKY HIGH! Who I said when I reviewed that film, would go on to great things. Warren Peace was a great character and role.
Well, the strike is over... his new film is perched upon release - and Roland Emmerich has started shopping his next project... 2012 "an apocalyptic spec script" that Emmerich and the fella he co-wrote 10,000 B.C. with created. He apparently is shopping this with a Summer 2009 date picked out and his overall marketing plan in place. And according to Variety's unnamed sources - it has more going for it than just a big idea that studios love. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
If you know anything on 2012 - drop us a line - I'm very much looking forward to finding out how we all die this time... so far its been Aliens, Climate Change and big lizard thing... What's happening in 2012? Do you know? What do you think it'll be? Is it the big YELLOWSTONE VOLCANIC THING? Can't be asteroids or comets - that's been done. Hmmmm... How does the world end this time?

2012 (the reality of which I happen to believe in) is waaaay too cool of a concept for Emmerich to get put his useless hack paws on. I usually hold myself above "fanboy hating", but I feel about this guy the way that many others feel about Brett Ratner and Michael Bay. I agree with much of what's said about them, but at least they've made stuff I found worth watching in SOME way. Emmerich and his sometime co-provocateur Mr. Devlin are purveyors of the ABSOLUTE lowest common denominator tripe-bullshit. ID4 is watchable for how bad it is. Stargate was unique in ripping off not one movie but dozens. Let's not even talk Godzilla. And my love for Art Bell notwithstanding, Day After Tomorrow was a mangled, implausible pile of shit. So just retire, Emmerich, seriously. Leave 2012 to someone who doesn't suck.
-
Micheal Bay is doing something too: "Story follows an academic researcher who opens a portal into a parallel universe and makes contact with his double in order to stop an apocalypse foreseen by the ancient Mayans."
-
...London Olympics? We discover that nothing is finished and the cost has already gone over budget by a couple of Godzillas and an ID4. Now that's scary...
-
that shows him blowing himself up?
-
...London Olympics? We discover that nothing is finished and the cost has already gone over budget by a couple of Godzillas and an ID4. Now that's scary...
-
... to the world if we've gotta suffer another four years of "high concept" disaster movies.
-
So now the hacks are stealing from each other? Hmm. So when's Ratner's 2012 movie coming out? (As long as none of them try to touch 2112...)
-
The poster will be funny with 2012 coming in 2009.
-
Jesus Christ Harry. You have characters outrunning a flash freeze for christ sake.
-
It certainly looks it. And if that guy from the Covenant goes on to great things then it really is a sign of the Apocalypse.
-
He is a hack. End of story.
-
that I wanna see.

Didn't Fright Nights' Evil Ed get raped in the ass in that movie. If memory serves me isn't it by the guy who played the bug eating butler in Fright Night 2. I can't remember, please someone help me.
-
i'm kind of not scared of this, and without raquel welch i'm not too interested in 10,000. and what the hell did the mayans know anyway? if they were really prescient, their calendar would have ended when they got wiped out by the frikkin spaniards or whatever. and god bless, i love the mayans, don't get me wrong. and the spaniards.
-
Terence McKenna's novelty theory is another take on the end of a (Mayan) era.
My personal idea: the invention of the first time machine (followed by the second version, the version for all time); the end of linear time. -

I know Evil Ed became a gay porn star
by nomoredirtyjokespleaseweareyanks
but was it that bug eater that fucked him first?
-
Okay, for starters, its exactly December 21, 2012 (according to the Mayan Calander). Now, keep in mind, the Mayan's werent the only ones to claim this is when the world will end/change AS WE KNOW IT (which could mean that it doesnt actually end, just change).
-That date is the Winter solstice, when the earth is on its axis. Coincidentally, there will be a PERFECT planetary alignment in our galaxy (which hasnt happend for thousands of years). So many ppl believe that our Earth's arctic poles will change locations dramatically, which in turn will change the earth's climate around drastically.
-Now the literal translation also means that fire will fall from the sky, machines will attack us, animals will speak, blah blah blah...
I would say the first one is more likely to happen. -
Type '2012'into Google and rejoice at the sheer number of end of the world conspiracy sites out there - they beat the London 2012 Olympic site into a distant 3rd. The Sun reversing its magnetic poles, Mayan calendars ending, asteroid impacts...you name it. If Mr Emmerich has his way, I think that we'd all be unsuprised if it was a magnificent combination of everything.
I'd imagine it starts with the Mayan high priests sacrificing virgins (no complaints here) followed by a near future scenario including scientists, gutsty 'Merican pilots, Special Ops, female scientists, French comedy relief in the form of a cowardly yet loveable journalist and a Labrador. That dies.
And it'll make fucking millions.
Incidently, 10,000 B.C? Dear titty-fucking Christ that looks bad. -
Is what I was hoping for :( Rush!!!
-
you could write all Emmerich's flicks.
-
fuck off douche.
-
20:12 is usually the time when Roland calls me up - to interrupt my news-programm - and tell me he does another picture that we somehow have seen before... Now why is there no talk here about the Happening? Which I find promising from the trailer on the Apple site...

He ruined the Wolverine thread already.Thanks.

GET OFF MY PLANE!

who doesn't have any friends, no mommy or whatever and therefore you need to ruin the fun of others. Feel good now?
-
So here's your premise.
John Steele plays a brilliant but misunderstood javelin thrower from small-town USA. He always dreamed of competing in the Olympics but never had the confidence nor the social skills to make that dream a reality. Until....His father's life is threatened when he's diagnosed with a rare anal bone disease. Steele decides to pluck up his courage and with the help of his comic-relief sidekick (played by some shit-bag like Rob Schneider) set of for London where there'll be montages and a half-assed love-interest whose English accent is so bad, even your balls will cry! So Steele gets the gold, the woman and a little bit of herpes, while Rob Schneider gets a quip at the end. The credits roll. America sleeps soundly, knowing they won again. -
I didn't think people like you could spell let alone type.

No way an FX film tops the organic feel of Mel Gibson's film. The city sequence was one of the best "cast of psychotic thousands" segments I've seen in a film since Jodorowsky was in top form. Just give the cash to Gibson and have him make a sequel.

The last thing were gonna get is a piece of shit movie by emmerich?...this guy is THE ANTI CHRIST OF FILM.10,000 BC WILL BE MADE FUN OF FOR YEARS ITS GONNA BE SO AWFUL.

Coming in 2009.
-
A welcome ban, you will soon receive.
-
you can try to not type in caps without any cursing? I guess not.
-
either aicn talkback is having some serious issues, or the place has been hacked. DOH!!
-
Along with Stephen Sommers and Uwe Boll. Harry, I can't believe you'd champion a talentless hack like Emmerich. YUCK.
-
Feb 20, 2008 2:50:01 AM CST
Wow what do you know, retards come in pairs
by nomoredirtyjokespleaseweareyanks
fuckin hell Harry ban these fucks.
-
Enjoy your last hours EVER on this site. Kid.
-
(backs awkwardly away)....
-
the quicker the banning, the sweeter the juice.
-
their immature postings will disappear, too.
-
wow there's apparently so much that is expected to happen in 2012 - lots of end of the world scenarios and more than one mention of the winter solstice - 12 Dec...
I wonder which one he'll go for?
if he chooses the Mayan calendar thing then it won't be 2012 coming in 2009 - it'll be more like 13.0.0.0.0 coming in 2009 - least that's the way I think the Mayan calendar works?
anyway it seems he's gonna have a lot of scenarios to choose from... -
I work in an operating theatre, what do you contribute except stupidity?
-
Can you explain this for me, Mr. intelligent?
-
Do you honestly have nothing better to do with your life at this time of day?
-
Another trailer park trash twat kid, thinks he's soooo damn clever but he's just a snot in a long line of people who have done this before many years back.
Son, the best of you ran down you dads leg after he fucked that whore of a mother for a bet. Now get back to momma's titty before another one of her clients takes it before you. -
No Akira, no Matrix, baby. You wanna watch what you say. Someone's gonna take you seriously one day and they wont be on the far end of an internet connection.

Listen up motherfucker - in the immortal words of Tycho: if you say anything else - word ONE - if will kill myself. And when my tainted spirit finds its destination, I will topple the master of that dark place. From my black throne, I will lash together a machine of bone and blood, and fueled by my hatred for you this FEAR ENGINE will more a hole between this world and the next. When it begins, you will hear the sound of children screaming - as though from a great distance. A smoking orb of NOTHING will grow above your bed and from it will emerge a thousand starving crows. As I slip through the widening maw in my new form, you will catch only a glimpse of my radiant form before you are incinerated. Then, as tears of bubbling pitch stream down my face, my dark work will begin and one of my six mouths will sing the song that ends the World.
-
I wonder if his mouth actually dribbles shit?
-
is your mommy typing this.
-
just nine years old or he's too busy typing senseless insulting stuff which will be soon gone forever. I guess it's both.
-
this is probably the best post ive evr seen on this page! you my friend have made my day im in stiches!!!FUCK YOU ALL INBRED CUNTS!!!! you wankers tell people to fuck off all the time for having an opinion so its nice to see you gettin it in the arse!
-
I do sweep up crap in a theater. It's a very degrading and pointless job. But do you think I give a shit? No. I get to see any and all movies I want for nothing. Not to mention all the confectionary I can stuff in my face. So who wins, not that I actually care about beating someone who had rage issues with anything that stands...
-
S'funny, I had a script in the old Hollywood Tar Pit, a while back, all about a gloebtrotting guy who unravels the Mayan prophecies about the End of the World in 2012... You know the drill: Conspiracy stuff.. Agents in pursuit... A big climax in Antarctica, etc.. But there you go.. I'm not bitter... really, I'm not...
-
I meant 21 Dec!
-
Emmerich is harmless.
-
enjoy your stay while it lasts. It won't be long.And thank you very much for entertaining us. It's still funny to see some poor little boys come to this site a try to annoy us but you know what? You'll be banned within the day, your posts will all disappear and the day after tomorrow nobody will recall that you've ever been here. But thank you anyway.Speaking of The Day After Tomorrow: I don't know what to think about Emmerich's new project. Sometimes his movies are ok, but mostly they suck.
-
You really have that Jerry Springer trash thing down to a fine art. Are you inbred too? Play the banjo son? Is your sister your last hot date? Do you drink from momma's furry cup? I bet that's just the tip of the iceberg......
-
I think he just misread my post about being a nurse. It's okay, the kids' just a moron.
-
the day after tommorow ill still be pissing myself!!!
-
Now if we could just get Schumacher in on this we could have an unparalleled triangle of suckiness which would hopefully create some kind of black hole effect which would counteract the return of the Mayans and save the world so we could continue to live long after 2012. Although with those three movies available on DVD we might not want to.
-
Maybe you can increase the size of the caps and post every one of your threads not only 20 times but 50 times? What about that? Maybe I'll get your point then. Thanks.
-
God I've been so blind! I'm actually quite slim, but I could always stand to lose a few more. Thanks for pointing that out. I wish death was only the beginning. And I'm so sorry for whining. Friends?
-
Thank you!
-
The Mayan calendar is supposed to end in December 2012. Some see this as the end of the world, but most scholars tend to believe that it is the Mayan belief that one age will end, and a new one will begin. On a doomsday scenario, I remember seeing where Earth is expected to cross the galactic gravitational plane or some such bullshit, and the resulting gravatational stress on our world may cause it to shift on its axis, creating a lot of unpleasant shit. I don't think a single fucking significant thing will happen that day. And I think HuckleberryHound will still be waiting to get laid.
-
Can I suck your cock?
-
even fucking funnier than the day after tomorow, god im so glad i looked at this talkback!
-
Feb 20, 2008 3:18:08 AM CST
HuckleberryHound is driving it up my ass! YEAH! BABY YEAH BABY!!
by evilgeek1
You're so fucking good at this, you motherfucking sex machine. Go on, tell them all how I take it up the ass! Go on! Do it, Huck! I love you!
-
my thoughts exactlty and no little fuckers who like dishing it out but cant handle it when someone fucks them back!!!
-
and since you're such a poor and lonely guy, maybe I can come over, kiss ya and hug ya. Maybe that'll alleviate your pain.
-
If i asked you to rape me with a piece of your faeces, would you do it? Don't stop man. I'm having too much fun!
-
he's whining about something but I'm not sure what it is...
-
with me and my father! Going family style on an 8 year old sister is so refreshing when you do it with someone like Huck. Aaaaagggghhhhh!
-
these fucking wankers ass suck each other and count their pubes on two fingers!!! honestly they want to have have an intelligent debate about emmerich, the only intelligent thing you should deebate about that fucker is how good he must be at sucking murdochs rotten aussie cock!
-
... is Prophecies of Nostradamus (not the heavily edited Last days of planet earth). This japanese flick has everything in it : earthquakes, ozone layer destroyed causing people to go on fire and the end of humanity with only a few irradiated mutants alive crawling on the ground looking for worms. can't beat that!
-
I just wanted to fuck with your head for a few mins. So long Fuckleberry...
-
decent people come on this site post their two cents worth and then get called a twat by you fuckers you are renowned for being the arse end of debate on film forums JUST ASK BOB ORCI WHO YOU LOT TREATED LIKE A FUCKING MUG THE OTHER WEEK!!! well at least hes got the fucking balls to face his aggresors just like THE MIGHTY HUCKLEBERRYHOUND!!!
-
I'm kinda digging this Huckleberry Hound. At least he's entertaining.
-
Sad but true.
-
the day after tomorow your ass is still going to be sore from the fist fucking you got today!!! SO YOULL REMEMBER WONT YOU!!! as will i and every one i know who ive posted this thread to!
-
Thanks, EvilGeek1, you just made my day!
-
When is Roland going to step beyond his comfort zone of disaster movies? For a movie about 2012 to work, it would have to take in so many ideas and genres that one movie wouldnt do it justice. Occult, Magick, Aliens, conspiracies, illuminati, the second coming, etc. Read the final book in Grant Morrisson's The Invisibles series. That gives you an idea of what is involved.
-
brians life has got taste and a sense of humour too! good on you sir!
-
That indeed is new to me.
-
For a second there I thought it had something to do with the X-files sequel cuz it looked like sumthin from the mythos ;What with CSM tellin Mulder that the INVASION will take place on Dec 22 2012 or sumthin.
And THEN I READ Roland Emmerich's name.... -
Don't cats clean themselves? I'm confused...
-
The world ends because of the London Olympics. Something to do with starting pistols going wrong.....
-
Stare at any post by HuckleberryBitch - concentrate....hard. Think of nothing else but of him catching fire and writhing in agony in his waterhead mother's basement.
Maybe we'll catch a break and he'll expire screaming in pyschic fire. -
Not with a bang but a whimper. "I paid $10 bucks for THIS??"
-
Not with a bang but a whimper. "I paid $10 bucks for THIS??"

Repeated shit still is shit. Doesn't get any clearer.
-
yes it must be as must be the feeling of a three way bitch slap!
god im stilling pissing myself! i bet you fucking aint! -
Always sounded better as a sinister "end of days" year than 2001 for me. So in the tradition of ID4 Vs. Mars Attacks, Armageddon Vs. Deep Impact, Volcano Vs. Dante's peak it's Bay's 2012 vs. Emmerich's 2012. Isn't that weird that both of these guys usually go up against a movie very similar?
-
all brians life said was he thought huck was funny and youd like him banned too wouldnt you! having a different opinion isnt a crime!
neither is being a fucking spunk bubble! -
Isn't that cutting it a little close? That's only a few years away...and it's always a bad idea to actually put a DATE on the film...because then that date comes...and the world doesn't end and you look like a fool...
-

am I now a member of your cool legion of three?
-
no you can fuck off looser! one day youll be banned when people realise what a fucking twat you are! it took me about a nanosecond if it werent for you mate i wouldnt have even started looking at this thread!!!
god bless you now fuck off! -
I do, in fact. 2012 is when London is holding the Olympics.
oh wait, you meant the movie?
guess i don't know anything then, sorry.
p.s. eat rancid shit, AICN. -
Thank you. Another hint at your royal intelligence, fuckleberry.
-
The concepts of what could happen on 12/21/2012 are entrancing theories. None of them belong in a movie. Emmerich needs to stick to ruining random ideas. If he takes on something like this and ends up lying to millions of half brain dead trashy backwoodsman about how the world is going to end(in 2 short years from said film's released)...the backlash from HuckleberryHound and his family of traveling carnival ride technicians could be astronomical.
-
you my good man are a legend! i thank you!
-
But thank you for the information, smurfdick.
-
but it wont be directed by that useless german cunt
-
"loser" is spelled with only ONE "o".Second, that cool guy of the legion of three morons is called "davidlyons" not "davud lyons".Third, my name contains SIX characters. I'm not with Motorola, if you can get THAT joke. Kids...
-
Does Roland put FV on-hold while he pursues this? Does Fox assign another helmer to FV? Inquiring minds...!!!
-
ive invented a new word just for you its LOOSER as in your arse is loose!
nice to see you cant read fucko
-
and only one of you minge face
-
Agreed. 100%. I'm sort of excited to see if it truly ends up being the time that the world changes forever. Even to die during a cataclysmic event like that, would be worth it just to see how it went down. Sign me up. Emmerich, needs to keep away from this one. Think about it. He's got TWO SOLID YEARS to sell this idea after it's 2009 release. Then, he'll never make a sale on it again. If 2012 rolls around and nothing happens, people will pass that movie up and go "Shit, it's 2015, whatever happened in that movie was a lie". Or else, we'll all be dead from the Earth shifting on it's axis. See the world end, see Emmerich fail...it's win win.
-
quote "how badly I mispell hs name" unquote? Lol! You're hilarious! Really. I love ya!Oh, and BISHÔJO SENSHI SAILOR MOON reminds me of you, that's why I like her so much....

-

-
Who's that?In other news, I didn't say that you are going to be banned within an hour, just soon, within the day. Btw, creating a new account won't help, davidlyons, 'cause they're banning your IP, my friend.
-
if you had ever read any of my posts before you would realise how much I can't stand haters and people who tear others down. I, unfortunately, also cannot stand people who repeat themselves.
-
and so's my wife!

-
SURELY YOU REALIZE THAT THE GRAMMAR POLICE WILL BE THE FIRST TO GO? WE BELIEVE IN FREE SPEECH, EVEN FREE FROM RULES.
-
As I said: "soon". :-)
-
I feel your anger, but all I did was make up a stupid name. You don't have to ruin it for everyone except for david lyons and Co.
-
This thread is a real mongoloid porn inferno thanks to you and your be-smirching. Legion of doom! Bah! It takes a little more than an 8mb connection to run a legion! Come one man. I'm sure you can get people's respect and attention in the real world. You just have to try....

I thought your argument was against people who abuse others on this, a movie talkback. How about you give us a reasoned argument against Emmerich(it wouldn't be hard) or find some place to duke it out with moto. Either way I'm sick of this.

If anyone knows about the Mayan thing it was just a part of their hypnotic calender. And they had these ages that were dated every 56,000 years or so. In the future and in the past, one just happens to be in 2012. No big deal really. The only real prediction they think is going to happen is the earth will tilt on is axis. It may or may not happen, no one knows, so this is like Y2K part 2.

This Movie will suck the life out of your brain as surely as the rest of his other turdflicks!Believe it or not the only one of his campy disaster movies I slightly enjoyed was Godzilla because it had a giant dinosaur in it!Stargate was very Lame, Day After Tomorrow was dull, independance day was retarded, the patriot was like a TV drama and I never heard of moon 44 but it must have been shit!Emerich's like a slightly more competant Eue Boll and 10,000 BC looks like a more Mamothy Stargate so who cares what 2012 is it's bound to be shite!

what I've heard about 2012 is that an asteroid will be very close to earth's orbit and has a high risk of smashing into us, thus ending life. But I rather like the Mayan's idea of 2012 where people just ascend to a higher plane of existance.
How is it that Huck hasn't been banned yet? -
it's not JUST about the Mayan calendar thing - there's so much more attached to that year it's not funny! apparently planets and stars are meant to align and all kinds of other mystical bullshit as well! there's even talk of aliens - those Sirius guys, sure, but there's a particular distance - to do with Pleiades, aka the Subaru star cluster, about 135 parsecs or 440 light years from here - which is the first step in the so-called cosmic distance ladder of the universe...
anyway, so it's not just about the Mayans -
But the book by Daniel Pinchbeck is the best one I think. Nothing scarier than realizing oneself. Tho I think Shyamalan would do a better job of it.
-
...and the best prediction as to how the world will end in 2012. It all has to do with American politics. In this year's Presidential race, of McCain Vs Obama, all McCain has to do to secure the votes of every other bible-belter crazy person is release the impending, nationwide smear ad which says, "Barack Obama? More like IRAQ OSAMA! Vote McCain. Keep our country safe." McCain wins. Fucks up international relations in the next 4 years so badly that even the most liberal lefties will wish we had Bush back. In this time, Obama gains this "experience" his opponents love to point out that he lacks. Does all kinds of good shit, and runs against McCain again in 2012. Obama wins in a LANDSLIDE victory. Crazy old Yahoo McCain, in a fit of anger at losing to "Iraq Osama," pushes the button. In fact he pushes all the buttons. Nukes the whole world. End of story. End of everything. There you go. Hope you're ready for it.

The obsession with December 21st, 2012 of course has become amplified ever since Y2K (the date of choice for "end of the world" prophets, etc.) came and went.
So my question is, what's the next big date that people are going to glom on to after 12/21/2012 comes and goes without anything happening? -
... since a person's ideas about it indicate how they feel about the whole concept of prophecy. What is wrong with the human psyche that we cling to this idea that the future is somehow already committed? The existence of the lottery industry should be enough to disprove it to the rational mind. Imagine an ancient culture, whose #1 concern is acquiring enough calories to survive, "seeing" a distant future so clearly it becomes a part of their culture, but not in specific tales, just a subtlety of calendar design. Nutty. Isn't it much more likely that the calendar was designed like a modern odometer? I don't expect a catastrophic failure in my car at exactly 100k miles.

It's the end of a cycle in the Mayan Calendar. (I think it's called the Long Count). And every previous end of the cycle had some sort of serious nigh-apocalyptic occurrence (obviously not apocalyptic otherwise the Mayans wouldn't have been around to create the calendar). Here's Wiki on it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayan_Calendar#Long_Count (remove spaces)

Yeah you are right. Its the same dude. By the way he played in Terminator 1. Hes one of the guys Arni snatches his cloths from.

but bizarrely everyone seems to sense the end coming. And it's like, people react in different ways to it. Everyone knows the end is coming, no one really talks about it.
And then, the night it happens, most people just have dinner with their families, do the dishes, tidy up, and go upstairs to sleep, make love and wait for the end. -

Hard-core environmentalism is a religion; Al Gore is its prophet, carbon credits are its tithing, carbon footprints are sin, capitalism and technology represent the fall of man, and global warming is its apolocalypse and judgement day. Any doofus who sits around worrying about what the weather will be like in 100 years is just stupid as someone worrying about the lack of horses for transportation in the 1890s.

One of the worst big budget summer movies ever? I think so. The only one worse was 1998's Godzilla. Oh wait, Emmerich did that one too? Oh wait, this will suck so bad, maybe it will be the end....of that hacks' film career.

Hey Harry,
Actually, it could be fun. Some people believe that there is a 12th planet called Niberu which visits Earth every 3600 years. This is where all the gods of mythology originated from. When this happens, the gravity from this other planet will change the Earth's axis due to a shift in polarity.
Think Day After Tomorrow meets Stargate.
It could be fun. -

Make one or two extra payments on your loan each year to bring the principal down and you will save a lot of money over the life of your loan. When submitting the extra payment, make sure you notate that it is to be applied to the principal.
Your priority is to get rid of the credit card debt first and foremost. Suck cock if you have to, but credit card debt is the destroyer of lives.

...Sure Emmerich's movies are crap, but they "look good". They're mindlessly entertaining eye candy and sometimes that's all you're in the mood to watch. I'll be in line for 10,000 BC when it opens. Sure it'll be another dumbass caveman flick, but Emmerich's effects dudes have managed to create a saber-tooth cat that looks cool, so on that point alone, it'll be worth the ticket price.

is a hack. Every one of his movies have been about shallow characters overtaken by grand effects. I wish todays directors would get over the fact that you can do the impossible with CG and put some plot in the movie too. I've seen the trailer for 1000BC and it just looks like Caveman meets Smallville. Stunning looking cave people with perfect teeth and hair. What a load of rubbish..!

I am neutral on this guy leaning towards hatred. While I genuinely love Stargate and ID4 is entertaining....The Day After Tomorrow is absolutely horrible. I didn't care about any of those characters...except maybe the CGI wolves that trek into Manhattan from a place only Emmerich knows.

The date of December 21, 2012 is the end of the current Mayan cycle, developers of the most accurate calendar known to man. Aztec and Mayan ideology says this cycle will end with massive earthquakes (hence the apocalypse)corresponding with various cosmic events (such as one theory that the sun will move in front of the dormant super massive black , but this is not the end of the story.
Mayan ideology never talks about an ultimate end, or even considers an ultimate end, which debunks the apocalypse. Yes the cycle will end, but it is immediately followed by a new cycle. Just like a spiral.
One theory that is the premise of David Pinchbeck's book 2012: The Return of Quetzacoatl, is that we are in store for an evolution in consciousness. -

MAYAN CALANDER DOESN'T EVEN REALLY END IN 2012
by guy who got a headache and accidentally
That's common misconception, it's even on fucking wikipedia. God damn there's a bunch of uneducated misinformation going around here. It's just the end of a cycle, the end of a cycle also happened in 1600 hundreds or so and not a god damned thing happened then. So sorry, you'll still be paying your shitty taxes and working your shitty jobs, no Mad Max scenarios for you.

ANCIENT MAYANS ALSO CUT OUT HEARTS AS SACRIFICE TO GODS
by bringingsexyback
You wanna rely on their calendar for the Apocalypse?

That turns everyone gay when it goes off. Nothing wrong with being gay, and the world would be fabu, but this would bring about the End of Man. Beware the Gay Bomb.

what happens when you get a bunch of frustrated film maker wannabees in a virtual room?..... see above...
thank you, that is all. -
Their civilization ended already. Their world did end. What do they know? Predicting the apocalypse is truly grasping in a modern world desperate to find meaning.
-
Sure now in 2008 we know that the Mayan calender is only a cycle but this is a fairly recent discover.You see the problem was created back in the 70s when all the software we use today was being developed. The developers didnt know any better than to use the Mayan Calander so all of the programs are based off of this 2012 end. So in short, at 12:01am 2012, all of our systems will shut down and will begin the end of the world as we know it.
-
I just watched and interview with Steve Jobs on the History channel about the whole calender thing and it's true its not a conspiracy. They had not thought to look past the Mayan Calender cause back in the mid 70s it was inconceivable for them to think that we (the human race) could make it past 1999. So at the time they truely believed that the sytems would be full proof by using the 2012 calender.

-
Sorry, I think it has something to do with Bill Gates and how they created the windows format along with the calenderSorry about 2000 I sure would like another end of the world party.
-
the douchebags finally got banned!!!
-
From what I saw on A&E the other night they were discussing how they based the entire windows format on the Mayan calender. Once the Mayan calender runs out the windows stop working. If you really look closely at the codes that make up the windows format you can see how they incorporated much of the Mayan symbolism.
-
Another problem discussed was how the hard drives are not going to be able to recognize the metephysical change that the human consciousness will under go after 2012. Its' really a trip I wish I recorded the show.

by bringingsexyback
after the Y2K debacle. Y2K was a great cottage industry for the tech field. Also lots of companies made money off 9/11 with off-site storage systems, backup systems and "disaster contingency systems" or whatever the hell they called them. You could make billions just on selling fear itself.

Yes iPods will work but only until the sun engulfs the earth.Apparently Steve Jobs strongly disagreed with Bill Gates decission to use the Mayan calender and thus created the well know competition between the two. It was a fundamental disagreement that will eventully cause Microsoft billions.

Use your iPod to store any or all important information.

I like it.

Silly or not I would get your self an iPod quick. All this stuff has been documented on the main stream media,A&E and History Channel. Its big
-
Granted it's not the most intelligent thing ever published but it sure was entertaining. I would make it a loose adaptation, though. The whole chosen warrior angle or whatever the hell it was would be unbearably corny in a movie. But it would make a pretty cool alien invasion picture. Plus the nuclear confrontation at the end would make for a tense finish.

I have an Archos, a French-made multimedia player that totally blows away anything else. It's also a DVR so I can record off Cable, DVDs, videocam, anything. Don't buy an iPod without checking out the Archos first.

Dude you have got to look into an Archos before buying anything else. I love this thing. Check out archos.com and look at their refurbished units. They're a steal for what you get.
A bit of advice - don't go for Gen 5. Check out the AV604 (it's the 4th Generation). It has a large screen, and BUILT-IN WIFI. So you can browse the Web at any hotspot. The 5 Gen has wifi too but they charge you extra for the freaking browser! I have the AV500 which is older, but I am never giving up on this thing. The 604 can also record off video sources like I mentioned but you do need an accessory adatper. I recommend the cheaper travel adapter instead of the $100 homebase, unless you can swing it, in which case it has far better connections available.
Also check out customer reviews of Archos products at Amazon to see feedback. Many people say it blows the iPod away and I totally agree. -
I haven't laughed this much in a week...awesome talk back! If the coming apolocaypse is half this funny, I'll consider it worth the wait.

It seems like Emmerich and Devlin haven't worked on a movie together since Godzilla (although Devlin did produce The Patriot). Did they have some kind of falling out?
-
Celtic wont hang on! Don't worry, they are the epiteme of "Plucky Losers"
-
Though I don't know any of it. Seriously, I can't remember any sources, but 2012 is definitely speculated upon a great deal (by various groups and cultures it seems) as the year the world ends. This should be a goldmine for Emmerich as it takes on the same strategy as Day After Tomorrow did - exploit the paranoia of potential global disaster. Personally, I love apocalyptic stories, but in all the variations on this theme, I have yet to see one that is really convincing in terms of the mass chaos that would ensue. A well-made monster budget version is long overdue. I'm not a bible-thumper, but how great would it be to see the Old Testament description of the apocalypse adapted to film with a great script and director behind it? 2012 will be big budget fun, but I'm not a fan of Emmerich. He's Michael Bay with a little more intelligence, but still panders too much to the status quo for my taste.
-
I already scored one and i'm playing like a God whilst talking about roland emmerich.

that it wasn't one source talking about 2012, it was many cultures and people, even scientists. not like y2k.

...the Mayan calendar ends. Also, the prophecies of St. Malachy tell that the pope who succeeds the current pope (of the Benedictine order) will be the FINAL pope, which, given the current pope's age, could fall around the time of 2012.
So, given the time lines of the Mayan calendar ending around the same time as the Catholic Church would elect the new (final, according to the prophecy) pope... it would fall around 2012.
I am dying to see what Emmerich is coming up with by specifying that particular year for a movie about the world ending...
Here are links to the Wikipedia pages of the Prophecies of St. Malachy and the Mayan Calendar so you know I'm not talking out of my ass.

That Bill gates was warned about this many many years ago before he started populated the world with his demand windows program. I watched the interview with Steve Jobs and he made it very clear that his products would work and would be the only thing that works after 2012. Now if you really would like to save anything of value i would have to say go with the iPod
-
Celtic are choking under thr pressure of the holy trinity of Ronaldinho, Henry and Messi. Fuck. Crazy shit.
-
That was "demon windows" and "before he started to populate"
-
2012. Final Crisis reality.
-
Sorry back on topic now, I heard Mel Brooks was making this movie not, Emmerich. Is that just a rumor? Honestly I heard he's been working on it for years and it's going to be a sequel to "History of the World"
-
Fuck I rule.
-
Ronaldinho, Thierry Henry and Lionel Messi at the frontline most of the match. Fucking hell.
-
From an elder of Mayan descent, apparently the world will go into decline, will die, and then be reborn. He doesn't go into who will gain new enlightenment or extra-sensory powers but I'm pretty sure everyone south of the border is a candidate. No talk of doomsday or anything like that but I've been seeing a huge tidal wave in my dreams as if it were prophecy so I'm keeping my boogie board handy. But if what I've heard is true and I gain a new consciousness, then I won't have to worry about it much cause I'll see it coming.
-
I'll be walking around, helping people out from looters, rapists, and other evils with my samurai sword, dressed in black Claiborne jacket, black slacks, and a button white shirt, and cool sunglasses. I figure I'll be able to have an automatic weapon handy but I prefer to use the sword unless the shit really hits the fan and I have to take a few guys out at once.
-
I can't praise Daniel Pinchbeck's surprisingly-sane insane book highly enough. If 2012 is a bad year, it'll be entirely our fault. It's not fate, it's not doom - it's our choice.
-
It was a more innocent time. Hateful, cynical movie fanboys weren't really in full force yet. George Lucas was still considered a genius. CGI existed but wasn't yet used for every effect. And the image of the President in a flight suit made people cheer instead of making them sick. It was a fun movie.
-
For you non-military types that's 8:12pm. What that has to do with the apocalypse, I'm not sure. Maybe the movie is about the end of the world taking place during the first commercial break of some new prime-time television show. Stay tuned!
-
Is there something special with the year 2012 that everybody thinks will coincide with the appocalypse and as far as godzilla goes, I fucking love that Movie and Jean Reno kicked ass as the French spy but Mathew brodick was a little bitch, always has been . I even hated him in Ferris Buler.
-
That's what I was planning to do. But with a Punisher skull on my chest. Or I was thinking carving the S Shield into my chest like Superboy-Prime.
-
Even then when I was just a kid I was thinking "Harry Connick Jr? What the fuck?" confused as to why a jazz pop singer was playing a fighter pilot next to the Fresh Prince. And back then Will Smith was still the Fresh Prince with the high top fade until he lost all his blackness and rapped even more happily.
-
Another apocolypse movie. Even worse, an apocolypse movie from the Eight Legged Freaks guy. I don't know how anyone can watch any of Emmerich's films and take it seriously or be entertained after finding the infinite number of plot holes in all his movies.
-
Like all of his movies, there'll be exactly five minutes of an interesting concept followed by wall-to-wall horse apples.
-
ive heard about the whole mayan calender thing. apparently the calender ends on 12/21/2012 which is when our world ends as we know it. now i was watching the history channel and they had this show on the sun and apparently in 2012 the sun well begin to rotate in the opposite direction which some scientist say can cause catostrophic sun storms which can send nucluer radiation from the sun to our humble planet. it apparently does this every 11 years but the 2012 one could be the worst one yet. or it could just not have any affect at all. i think the show said most likely it would cause worldwide blackouts which technically could "change" our world. . . or not.
-
There sure are a lot of crackpot misconceptions surrounding "2012," and tripe like this film will not help. Whatever shite actually goes down in five years, and I suspect it will be quite subtle, it's still probably a good idea to plan a massive, blow-out party starting on or December 20, 2012. In the meantime, you might actually want to read up on why "2012" is such a fascinating construct of time, space and human evolution to so many. For starters, there's this English bloke named Geoff Stray, who has done a great service in attempting to catalog all of the various competing theories and coincidences surrounding the date, all while cutting through the Art Bell-style B.S., but still keeping an entirely open mind. His reviews of other 2012 books are essential. For lovers of culture, mysticism and the like, I highly recommend his book and reading through his 2012 blog here: www.diagnosis2012.co.uk/1.htm.
-
An end-of-the-world film has the enormous potential of being really, really visceral and badass...and all of that potential for 2012 got flushed right down the toilet with Emmerich helming. Now we're sure to get a by-the-numbers light actioner with a couple of cool-looking scenes - all of which will be revealed 3 months ahead of time in the trailer - and a clunky script that will make us cringe every 4 and a half seconds. Wow, this is bad news.
-
That's the dumbest reason ever, i don't like this guy but you watch movies and focus on plot holes? It's the execution. Here's some news. Time travel isn't real but doesn't make Back to the future a less movie. It all depends on how it's execued, no matter how far fetched.
-
people here are saying 'ohh people are stupid to buy into this' but the thing is, it's mutiple sources throughout time, not just one dude saying it and people believing it.

Nah, i'm just saying that some people take it like the ramblings of a single mad man, when it has been a few cultures, different scientists, astrophysicists etc. I don't think anything will happen but it will be cool if the world ends. better be more imaginative than Revelations. That sucked. Give me The Blackest Night.
-
everyone here thinks it will be the american timezone. when it could be dec 21 in another timezone and dec 20 in us timezone. fucking americans.
-
and a badass beard is what I will need for 2012.
-
No prob - it is very cool. I checked Archos' site and they have the AV 604 Wifi for $185 refurbished. Count in some necessary accessories, and I'd say you top out at about $250. What can you buy in an iPod for $250? Not much. And this thing you will have a DVR, Video Player, MP3 player, 30 GB hard drive total that you can use for backups, Wifi browser so you can meet cool Starbucks chicks, a voice recorder, photo viewer and more. All for less than a cheap iPod that does nothing close.

I'd go see that.

If there is some sort of cataclysm, you'll definitely be seeing a lot of mercenary types and factions, basically anarchy and having to choose between sides of like-minded people. Me, I've just always been a person who's wanted to help right the wrongs but in a society like this it's hard to know what is truly good and bad, which is why I think something on a planetary scale actually might need to happen. I'm not advocating terrorism or anything like that but yeah, if I survive or somehow develop a higher state of consciousness and/or superhuman powers, walking around with a sword and a gun, without having to worry about police, government and its laws, helping out those in need. Come to think of it, it wouldn't be such a bad existence. I kind of look forward to it.
-
I thought the same thing. Too abd if global anarchy happened, it would be mostly badguys. That would mean I would have to read my Ennis' Punsiher Max and then go out and fuck some cunce up. But it would be helpful if I had a power ring and a corps behind me.

Only on AICN does the vision of a post cataclysm, spiritually reawakened renaissance consist of talkbackers with superhuman powers roaming the wastes of earth like Jules in Pulp Fiction, riding motorcycles and carrying shotguns and ninja swords to the aid of oppressed refugees. And, don't get me wrong, I'm with you on that, and given the chance I'll see you motherfuckers in Thunderdome, but I just got done reading The Road, and now I'm convinced it's just gonna be a lot of creative scavenging and walking, kinda like a cross between MacGuyver and Man vs. Wild.

And I don't think Independence Day has aged badly at all. Recently watched it OnDemand actually. It was cheesy, over the top, silly and 100% implausible back then - still looked about the same to me. They just got lucky with the event marketing; folks got all swept up and went to the theaters en mass. Good times. I dig it. Never seen Moon 44, and I hate his Godzilla, but I dig the rest of his films quite a bit. Excited to see 10KBC, and looking forward to the glut of films about our impending doom in the year 2012 (which is actually totally incorrect, but it'll make for good movies, so who cares?).

Anyway my thinking was more along the lines of walking everywhere like Jubei from Ninja Scroll or having a horse but I would think people of that time will not readily share water with others. Either way I'm gonna have to loot a good pair of shoes. Maybe some Sketchers will do the trick.

...is the British 1984 TV movie Threads. Hands down. It's a near-documentary depiction of the events leading up to and after a nuclear war between the U.S. and Soviets, as seen from the view of a family in Sheffield.
The first time I saw it, back in 1984, I started watching it about ten minutes in and didn't know what it was. When things went kaboom, I was horrified, but that couldn't compare to the absolute nightmare of the rest of the film, which ends 13 years after the war. It is the bleakest, most unrelenting horror show imaginable.
I bought the DVD a couple of years ago, thinking maybe that my impressions would be diminished after all those years, but I was just as drained after seeing it again. Amazing film.
-
scariest dystopian sci-fi flick ever
-
Good flick, until the last act when it went off the rails.
-
and saw threads when I was about 6. It traumatised me for ages.Scary, scary shit.
-
...I was 17 in 1984 and it fucked me up for weeks even at that age.

Will I be able to somehow have cool looking shades, slacks, jacket, Sketchers, automatic pistol, and samurai sword? I have those items now, except for gun, but I figure I'll lose them in the ensuing chaos of trying to stay alive. Fuck it, I guess I'll just wear those articles or keep them near me during the month of December in 2012. I'm usually against guns but I guess with harsh times like the promise of a post-apocalyptic future, you just gotta be prepared........
-
I, too, like Independence Day. This was one of the first movies to receive an Internet-fueled backlash. Today it's considered crap by average critics, but I enjoy it for what it is. It's a popcorn movie, pure entertainment that's not meant to be taken seriously. I had just graduated high school when this thing came out. The theater was jam-packed and people cheered during the final battle scene when that alien ship crashed and burned into the mountain. People clapped when the Bill Pullman delivered his somewhat cheesy speeach about July 4. I ended up seeing that movie about four times in theaters that summer, but even then I knew it wasn't going for any Oscars. ID4 was pure mind candy, nothing more. Those who bash the hell out of it just need to get a life.
-
Actually, I also like the third act and especially the very cool ending!On the other hand, I never understood why they spoiled the ending in the opening credits...
-
It fucked me up for about two months. You can see it on youtube, some dude put it on part by part.
-
2012 is just the point at which their calendar resets one of its (several thousand year long) cycles, and the point at which several other cycles coalesce. They didn't "predict that the world would end" then.
-
Threads was brilliant; around the same time there was a U.S. miniseries called The Day After (is that what it was called? I may have forgotten the exact title), which was cheesy. Threads was grim and grey and depressing. The Day After, I remember, started promisingly before reverting into Movie of the Week corn. Does anyone else remember this?
re "2012", is this going to be based on "Fingerprints of the Gods"? -

Looks like a teaser campaign... or is this a real end-of-world cult. Either way, it's very cool. Check it out.
