Look Upon The Gargantuanness Of This Japanese 2012 Trailer!!
Merrick here...
A Japanese trailer for Roland Emmerich's 2012 has been brought online. Some of this material we've seen before, some is newly revealed. All is so very, very Roland.
I'm constantly astonished by how beautiful Emmerich's destruction sequences look - they're like grim, hellish, hypnotizing works of art (I mean the physical qualities of the FX sequences, etc...not the films as a whole...)
Will the movie itself work? I think we all know what to expect...although I can't wait to behold such madness unfold upon a significantly embiggened screen. Unlike many theaters who forget they're telling stories on a large canvas, at least Emmerich understands the notion of...and how to realize...spectacle.
The trailer originates HERE.

C'mon, show Bay how it's done

Emmerich rips of Bear's "Forge of God" in Independence Day, and now he does it again (in a big way) in this movie. Too bad, I would love to see Bear's "Forge of God" and the sequel "Anvil of Stars" brought to the big screen.
-
during the summer.
-
are we going to see "family man" running away from destruction with his wife and/or kid(s) in tow? That seems to be a staple of disaster movies these days.
-
He's making the same movie again. The backdrop may differ (end of world instead of alien invasion or giant lizard) but the rest of the movie is basically the same.
-
It was called "Independence Day" (or "Deep Impact") when I saw it, though. More similarities than differences.
-
Seriously - even rooting for the antagonists will be bittersweet - imagine the world they'll be living in if they survive.

I'm also sick of the Family angle in all these movies.
by derlanghaarige
I want a desaster movie, that is about a selfish prick who does EVERYTHING to survive! Now that would be fun.
They still can end the movie with letting him ask himself: "What have I done? Whatkind of monster did I become?" to please the critics, but seriously: No more families and stuff like that. -
Emmerich, if anything, is taking a cue from Graham Hancock. Emmerich is an on-the-record believer in alot of Mr. Hancock's works re: "Atlantis", ie a root civilization that existed in Antartica that was destroyed by an episode of global crust displacement when the lithosphere shifted downwards, creating mass floods + earthquakes and making it cold as hell down there! Some escaped on great boats and ended up in South America and Egypt, where they influenced the cultures there. Without knowing anything about the specific plot, I GUARANTEE you that the general plot will involve a) global crust displacement b) a reference to this happening in the past and destroying Atlantis c) An end scene where we basically have to start from scratch /w what technology we brought with us (he may even be gutsy and do a BSG-like "10,000 years later" where a new culture dismisses the myth of the "Americans and their advanced civilization and the notion that some ancient calender created by them is fortelling their doom is nonsense). This is likely to be true when you take a look at his his movie 10000 BC, which essentially fits in line with the Hancock theories...if you're familiar with them, it's all too obvious the old "white" dude is from Atlantis.
-
It's too bad all the websites about how "historically inaccurate" 10,000 BC was were so painfully unaware that it was actually a fantasy based on speculative/alternative archaeology.I mean, it was still a crappy movie, but not for the reasons history/science nerds think it was.

They outstripped their environment and the whole society collapsed.

I third the sick of family angle thing..........................
by crackerfarmboy
So cheesy: "Daddy save me!" The FX do look pretty though, I won't lie.
-
"Our movie" is THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW because she loves massive destruction. I believe our first child may be conceived the night we see this one. Yes, these movies are shit, but if they turn on your partner, they serve a purpose.
-
This one blows the American trailer out of the water.
-
... were so smart then why are they dead?
-
The same reason Native Americans did. A larger more brute force came (and to some extent, farther and superior in intellectuality) and destroyed the Mayans. Duh. Fucking go back to Social Studies.
-
I was about to log on and post a scathing pro-family response based on your subject line, but then I read your post about "a selfish prick who does ANYTHING to survive" and I realized that would make one hell of an entertaining movie; Some bitter son of a bitch pushing kids out of the way, killing old ladies, kicking people off cliffs, etc, and laughing to himself as he does it. Billy Bob Thornton as the guy...
-
Mate, it's a spin on a joke from the Simpsons alright? I know my history... Why don't you take that stick out of your arse and relax...
-
Now, I know this movie is going to suck. I know that it is going to be typical Emmerich, trying to save a broken marriage against an impending disaster family film bullshit. I know this. I know this and because of this I probably won't see this at the theaters. Okay, I've said that. Now that I've said that.... Wow. Really........Wow. That looks badass on all levels. Kicks the shit out anything I've seen in the American trailers.
-
Everyone knows they left Earth with aliens from Antares, my history book says so...
-
Then why haven't we invited anime style pleasure bots yet!? Why can't we clone exact duplicates of Megan Fox or Kathy Ireland (in her prime) for our leisure pleasures??? COME ON PEOPLE!!! End the wars and focus the genius on these more priority tasks!!! I and to pre-order two pleasure bots please! lol
-
Yes! That would be a movie I'd watch! Kind of like the old Carlin bit about the guy who would step on children and kick over old ladies to get to the exit door of the plane. A little bit of truth in one of these movies would be refreshing, you all know most of the human population would be hacking each other to bits to try to get onto those rescue ships. Show me that guy and I'll buy a ticket.
-
...and while I'm pre-ordering I'll have a PS3 Slim as well....
-
War of the Gargantuas remake.
-
I'd watch the whole thing in HD, but the Tv still doesn't work from the massive Y2K meltdown.
-
If you really want to create a stir with a character like that have Tom Hanks play him... like with Robin Williams in Insomnia etc.

Fuck L. Ron Hubbard and

by ganymede3010
-
Zac Efron would be the first one pushed off of a cliff.
-
We need a good giant monster movie about now.
-
I'd rather sit through the two and a half hours of Emmerich's CGI than Cameron's self-absorbed 3D Mo-Crap. And this trailer splodes! Thumbs way up.
-
Fuck you Merrick for getting my hopes up only to have it dashed when I found it was just another trailer for this shitpile from Hackosauraus Wrecks. Man, this site sucks so bad these days.
-
I always thought that Emmerich must've read Graham Hancock, it shows up in a lot of his work, Stargate, 10,00 BC and now 2012.
The Mayans didn't predict it was going to be the end of the world btw....just a time of great change, and there's about a 40 year window - 20 years either side of 2012. -
it's like, even in the midst of the cool destruction scenes he'll have such immense jackassery going on that it will spoil the visual. Like the scenes where California is crumbling, which I think we can agree we've all been waiting for, have that stupid airplane with Cusack flying along about 3 feet off the ground, zipping just beneath the skyscrapers as they keel over and that's the shit that is just so damnably stupid it always ruins it for me. Remember that film clip from the big Indonesian tsunami that shows a street and just some water comes flowing down the street and it gets worse and worse until there's like 15 feet of mud and water and debris rushing through the street? That street-level, in-your-face view was just AMAZING and you could fill 20 minutes of screen time alone showing a guy jumping from roof to roof and maybe helping a few people out on the way instead of showing such dumbassery as the scene where he drives his car out the back of a cargo plane. No goddamned sense whatsoever and always spoiling what SHOULD be great with directoral hackery and idiotic writing. GREAT EFFECTS THOUGH will be the mantra for yet-another piece of shit movie.
-
This looks shit! I can't believe how fucking AWFUL this looks! The CGI is shit! Nothing is ever good enough! Sucks to be me!
-
DAMN! I thought I was going to et some awesome news about a remake of that killer flick but got this shit instead, GODDAMN IT!!
-
Go to IMDB and type in "When Worlds Collide. The classic film that this film ripes off, but it acualy has a real story and and real grown up actors unlike 2012 which will be 3 hours of CGI with a story we all know.
-
cos I'm sure not going to see it for the storyline.
-
You want to give anyone credit for that, try the hundreds of special effects artists and concept designers. I don't even know why they bother having a director or writer for that shit. Just come up with a computer program designed to spew out cliches, likeable characters, and lines like "I thought we had more time" and "I'll come back for you!"
-
I scanned this article closely, and saw no typos in it at all, PLEASE continue to be this diligent.
-
I am calling out all the people that are calling out the people who are calling out how stupid this movie is going to be, making me thrice-removed smarter than the average AICNewser.
-
La viva CHAVEZ PRICK FACE!
Emmerich couldn't tell an original story to save his life. -
Oh, I mean BurnHollywood ;p
-
...then they should have made the president a white man.
Black presidents save the planet. White ones destroy it.
Did Emmerich not get the memo? -
The rest is just the result of of Harry's Earth ending Taco Fart scheduled for 2012
-
kawabonga!..you got my $11..dude
-
...how long until this kind of movie is done in the Cloverfield/Quarantine/District 9 "realistic" style of filming?
-

I'd be wiping the jizz off my screeen for new GARGANTUAS
by the green gargantua
Dick. 2012 is some space dolphin BS, they did not choose a big enough rock to draw the Mayan Calender on see? If you flip that stone around he finished it on the back, even put a smily face.
-
I would seriously slap these bitches.
-
I thought the movie was a remake of "When Worlds Collide." The scenario in that film at least made a kind of sense, but not this stuff about the earth's crust slipping wildly out of control. That's crazy talk and the mayans never said the world was going to end in 2012 or any time. It was just one of the ends for the Ages of Man, which could mean anything. While I don' mind SFX eye candy, this will just feed into the Age of Dumbness that we are currently living through and I know far too many people are going to believe this stuff will really happen. And that the government has to do something about it, of course.
-
This does not look too bad. Hopefully the director will stay away from bullshit sickly sweet sentimental scenes for once....
-
Great. Don't get enough of those.
-
I swear the ships look like the top half of the Axiom from Wall*E.
-
If California falling into the ocean is just one of the distasters what is the big kaboom going to look like? I'm thinking a gigantic horde of CGI wolves.
-
For me it comes down to quality. If all a Director's movies main hook is CGI, I pass on it. I need more than fancy CGI.
-
is that all of the disaster effects look exactly like cover paintings for mid-1970s adventure novels come to life -- especially that bit where the city is broken up onto plates and is going into the ocean.
-
The idea of "Global Crustal Displacement" involves the idea that the lithosphere rests atop the aesthenosphere, which is theorized to be an elastic layer between the litho and the mantle (This aspect is accepted geologic theory/knowledge). Anyways, the idea went that imbalances on the surface of the planet, such as large accumulations of ice during an ice age, would cause the crust to "slip" over the aesthenosphere and be displaced. I forgot who the scientist was that postulated it, but Einstein used to say from a physics standpoint it was possible given the Earth's rotation, etc. The idea cropped up in the early 20th century, however, before plate tectonics was an accepted theory, just to put things into perspective. Obviously that throws a wrench into the idea, but I thought I would just throw the cliff-notes version behind it for those who are interested!
-
As a Godzilla fanatic, I will never forgive Emmerich for what he did to Godzilla as a character and icon. Absolutely no mythology ie. Mothra, Rodan, Gigan, King Ghidorah, Ebirah, Hedorah, Jet Jaguar, Mechagodzilla, or Anguirus just to name a few. Godzilla films are brilliant fun and the hand made sets are part of the appeal and charm. I hate the US remake with a passion. TAke away the special effects and Emmerich films are compltete garbage. Only ID4 stands as his one decent film.

Again, AICN brings you... MERRICK! Lower all expectations. Or rejoice knowing that even in these harsh economic times, even the retarded are being offered employment.

"Unlike many theaters who forget they're telling stories on a large canvas, at least Emmerich understands the notion of...and how to realize...spectacle." Yes, ladies and gents... Emmerich is now a THEATRE!

Just so long as it doesn't have Dennis Quaid walking through the snow for the last hour.

But if there's a scene where an airplane collides with a skyscraper and we have to watch how the building collapses in the background while the plane continues its flight... wait, it's only a movie, right?

and i have o say cameron had a certain finess to his destruction. It had other elements and other implications than just breaking things. And this movie seems to me at this point to lack a natural grace or beauty to its destruction. It's just boom. Just something i noticed
-
An unashamed schlockmeister. Mind you, the way he finds new approaches to his stock-in-trade (iconic building or monument being destroyed) never ceases to give me the guilty giggles. He'll never be accused of making an authentically good movie, but he delivers family-friendly apocalyptic explodey tosh with enough verve to get my money.

Godzilla 1998 (USA) is the worst big budget summer movie that was meant to be a tent-pole pick ever.
Did you ever see the Gamera trilogy from the late 90s? There was more imagination and vision in the 3rd film than in all of hack Emmerich's films combined.
A serious remake of War of the GARGANTUAS would rock. Make it moody, have great effects, good score. Make it fucking scary when the big green people eating mother fucker shows up. I still like the shot in the original were is face is under water looking up at the fishing boat. Scared me as little kid.
-
yay the family unit..blah blah
-
....
-
the whole 'science' this is based on is nothing more than more psuedo religious retarded dogshit, the same pea brained teenagers will be sitting in theatre's gasping at the 'awesomeness' of this....fuckin Earthquake was a million times more realistic and entertaining..
-
Because I guarantee the studios puss out. Honestly, if they are going to run with this myth, it has to be the true end of the world. Which means no matter what you do, whatever ships you build, everyone in the movie should be dead at the end. I would do just about anything to see this movies final shot be from space, and the Earth cracks into pieces, and floats in space as a jumbled mass of Rock, freezing water, and Magma spilling out. But it won't. They find one piece of land or some shit, like the island at the end of Waterworld, or something else, and they'll "start the human race anew." I don't want that. No one wants to see that shit. Just let it end. Armageddeon is Armageddeon. Does anyone else see the inherent problem in this movie knowing it isn't going to end the way it needs to because too many mouthbreathers won't have something happy at the end? I long for the shot of the Earth crumbling and being debris in Space. If the Earth is still in one piece at the end of this, they fucked up.
-
they are alive and well and all over Guatemala and other countries, where I'm connecting from. they're pretty badass too, I might add.
any anyone who thinks the Mayans predicted THIS is a certified imbecile. they predicted NOTHING of the sort, their calendar cycle just ends there. talk to any Mayan today familiar with their history and they think it's hilarious that white men fappage has willed into existence some other braindead Y2K nonsense. -
...This Looks Surprisingly Excellent, SFX wise.
-
awesome movie.
-
Doesn't that sound much cooler than Two Thousand and Twelve ? This movie had me at hello :D Emmerich is the king of destruction !
Viva the end of the world....!!!!!!!!! Too bad we are not getting Dennis Quaid's cheesy smile at the end of this one though! Hahaha
-
...means that it will be bad. Think about it.
-
Emmerich is not the king of destruction, more like the king of crappy movies! -
I did like that film...
-
Hes gotten so bad he's stealing shots from his own movies now.
Good job Roland. -
At least he's the king of something.... and I'm a sucker for that something....I shall be there opening night with a pack of sour straws....mmmmmmm
-
I'm 99% sure all you haters will go see it with a lame excuse on how you were forced to.... my nephew, my girlfriend, my ant....etc...
-
some believe that there may be brothers of man who even now wage a battle beyond the heavens....BA BUM BUM BUM BA BUM BUM BUM BUM!
-
Just noticed that!!!! Sorry ! (English is not my first language.....thank goodness !!!!! )
-
Seriously, why does he have such a b*ner for showing thousands to millions of people killed on such a large grand scale... THROW him in a volcano and be DONE with the idoit.
-
They are looking at each other about to kiss as a massive wall of water is headed to them. Just like in Deep Impact with Denise Crosby and her husband in that movie, seconds after they send Frodo off on a Motorcycle up the mountain.
-
glad to see someone point that out, surprsingly emmerich is into all the same things im into -aliens actually exisitng, atlantis/ previous high culture being destroyed and leaving remnants/ stargate technology/other dimensions...if you look into covert ops/conspiracy theories alternative science/archelogy there is much eveidence that supports all this.
all things considered this movie looks a little fear mongering. but the gov having underground sophisticated dwellings is 100% on the money. they put this stuff out as popcorn fiction but theres alarmingly real real stuff its all based on.
heres a blog that has a ton of research on all the above
http://tinyurl.com/n2qcum
pretty mind blowing stuff -
Better than watching 17 again or Twilight....I was hoping for a tsunami during both films ;-) Anyways, you know how some people out there actually like torture porn (I HATE TORTURE MOVIES)? Well I believe there is a wave of freaks (me included) who looove movies about natural disasters, the end of the world bla bla bla...I'm a sucker for that stuff and probably need medication... ;P

I new I've seen that before, but hey it's no big deal

If the president is black, shit happens- if he is white, world's
by particularly hard vato
I'm serious! Anyone notice this- Deep Impact- Black president- asteroid hits. Armageddon- white president- asteroid gets blowed up in space. Now, in 2012, president is black- guess what? SHIT HITS THE FAN!!!! Freakin' racist directors... And complete dumb-asses for not putting Megan Fox in this movie!!!!!! She could like, have to run out of the shower when the earth is blowing up or something- nice missed opportunity Roland- if that's your real name.
-
... getting squashed by St. Peter's Basilica. That's just cold, man, even for me and I'm a rabid atheist. I'll be first in line when this fucker opens, though. Sure it'll suck overall, but no one does mass destruction and mayhem like Emmerrich.
-
Emperor Guillotine never had it so bad.
-
... but then a city gets thrown clear, miraculously intact with an even more miraculously bubble of air clinging to it. Luckily, the town's foremost citizen and a brilliant scientist has just invented food processing machines and a gravity generator. Unfortunately, though, the ground beneath the city was transformed into a radioactive substance that begins to poison the citizenry. But luckily, the great scientist/leader just happened to have a few huge rolls of several square miles worth of lead foil he was saving "for a future experiment. So the population pitches in to roll the stuff out all over the ground to shield themselves from the radiation. Also, noting that a huge bubble of air clinging to what amounts to a small asteroid with a city on it is impossible, the citizens freak... but the scientist explains that he had invented a transparent dome just prior to their world's destruction and secretly placed it over the city... whew! But unfortunately, the dome was, years later, pierced by a swarm of meteors! Fortunately, everyone was saved from suffocation because the dome was also self-sealing, but unfortunately the meteors punctured the lead shielding and released the dangerous radiation! However, the ... of fuck... nevermind!

More over-the-top destruction that reminds me of Scorcher. Bring on Bay's next...
-
based on everything i read, it'll be like ID4. first you have the massive destruction and then we follow the survivors trying to get around in it. i'm sure there will be some sorta "aftershock" to give action at or near the end but yeah. i'd love to be wrong and everyone DOES die but the odds are stacked.

They fucked up Godzilla why stop there.

Run for the hills!! It's gonna knock the Capitol building down! We're so sorry Al! If we'd only listened!!

Looks like war of the worlds minus the aliens. dad and daughter try to make it through the end of the world. I'll just stick with THE ROAD. THAT is an end of the world movie. A dad and his SON trying to make it through the end of the world. Now thats a movie
-
Should I read it before the film? Stupid question probably. Books are usually always better.
-
I'm glad Ninja Assassin will be out at Thanksgiving to cheer me up.
-
Exactly. Why don't the actual writers just say fuck it and go with the Ockham's Razor solution...just let them all fucking die already.
-
in Natalie Portman's underarm. Is that asking too much?
-
Sign me up!!!!
-
Good riddance!!!!
-
I didn't see the "arks" in the teaser - had no idea what the actual plot might be. Now I can see it's just "Titantic" in reverse.

I didn't know about The Road. Just checked out the trailer and I'm jizzing. Looks goodly!

by uncle stan
-
it's well documented that the mayan calander ends in 2012 (and also the world), coming from Emmerich it still seems like a brain fart.
-
As others said before, THAT is the end of the world movie I want to see.
Of course, I wouldn't see this movie (2012) anyways, unless it was a free screening. Not my bag. I just checked it out because I thought it was going to have the Gargantuas from War of the Gargantuas in it. Man was I disappointed. -
But the way they cut that trailer... I don't know, something about it looks a little fucked up... like all of the subtlety and emotion has been ratcheted up way beyond what is necessary. And I read that Guy Pearce is in this- that would make this his second movie with cannibalism. Somebody should do a background check on that dude.

The stupid marketing fucks already GAVE AWAY the ending
by big dumb ape
I fucking HATE the way the cut modern trailers. They already gave away the fucking ending to this thing! Meanwhile, I can't believe that some of you are writing "I wonder how it will end?" or "I bet a few people survive somehow." For crying out loud, weren't you paying attention while watching either the American trailer or this Japanese one? They spell it out clear as day for you...I swear, I HATE modern movie marketing people. They have no idea what the fuck they're doing. I guess they figure if they don't show you EVERYTHING, you won't leave the house. Seriously, who the hell cuts these trailers or better still what jackass of a suit approves them? Anyone with half a brain should have said "Look, we have MORE than enough action and cool SFX shots to easily sell this thing. So pimp that all you want JUST DON'T GIVE AWAY THE ENDING."So, of course, being the most stupid and uncreative people on the face of the planet...they gave away the ending. Dumb asses. I wish Hollywood marketing people would get swept away by a giant wave in 2012.
-
It feels like the Wienstein Bros had to tinker with it to try and make it more "commercial." I got the same feeling from the ROAD as I had right before GANGS OF NEW YORK opened - something didn't feel right.
-
But I spotted an annoying kid. WTF? Ban those friggin' kids from disaster movies, plz. They just suck.
-
Leaping to safety, that'll make me feel better about the other six billion people he's ruthlessly slaughtering onscreen for my popcorn-mouth-crammin' entertainment.
I mean, kill the DOG?? That would be UPSETTING. -
...... and thanks for all the fish.
-
I mean, doesn't make great in quality movies, but makes a sure hell of a ride! As days go by, it's becoming a director that would drag me to Imax anytime. If only once he got a great screenplay!
-
these are the Irwin Allen movies for this generation. Have a disaster, mix in some well-known and not so well-known actors, a few notable character actors, fire up the popper, and turn off brain.
-
Who doesn't?!!
-
So instead of Wil Smith being chased by baddies in a jet, we get Cusak being chased by destruction in a prop plane?
Producers prophecy comes true....at the end of the film, Earth population is ZERO which happens to mimic the total number of people today that want to see Emmerich's shit movies. -
In the immortal words of Florence Evans from Good-Times: "DAMN! DAMN! DAMN!"
-
Never trust those planets either...
-
And sometimes that is all I want from a movie, guarantee this will be more visually arrsting than Revenge Of the Fallen!!!!

The mayan callendar didn't predicted the end of the world
by asimovlives
For fuck's sake, this builslhit is still going on? The mayan callendar just stoped, because some indian astronomer/mathematicians/priest of the early 16th century though that having made a callender that accounted for the next 4 centuries was already a good enough advancement and decided to give it a rest. Next century, the next fellas would count one or two more future centuries.So, instead of the people praise and be impressed that a stone-age people like the mayans were able to make a very exacting callender that matched up the next 4 centuries ahead (something the europeans of the time would had a hard time and could not calculate as exactly), instead of that we have this new age stupidity bullshit of the end of the world because of when the mayan callender ends.This shit is beyond retarded. And of course, Emmerich would make a movie out of that, because the man is in a quest to make the most retard movies imaginable. And most worrisome of all, there's geekoids who are actually very eager to see this bullshit, are eating all this fucking retarded shit up, and mistake this kind of shit for good cinema. For fuck's sake! It's not the end of the world that's coming, it's the end of geekdom, when the geeks sold their asses cheap for the hacks. Fucking ass!
-
Fuck Roland Emmerich, fuck his mvoies, and fuck all those who support them, double fuck if they are geeks.

by kirttrik
I mean, Jesus, well, I guess it will be kind of good in 20 years when it get's that Earth Vs. The Flying Saucers nostalgia feel to it.
-
Just like in Deep Impact with Tea Leoni and the actor who played her father in that movie.
-
Haha I noticed that, too! I guess in a time of crisis, we need Imperial Officers to bring us together.
-
someone in another talkback i believed mentioned that each final destination movie could have ramped up the idea of death's design getting more and more out of wack and eventually becoming a worldwide problem. This movie could have been the last final destination in that case
-
The real Earth was destroyed hundreds of thousands of years ago. Before humanity was wiped out, it had gotten to the technological point of learning the electrical configuration behind consciousness. Unable to stop the impending catastrophe, they wrote a software simulation of Earth's history which to this day plays on an infinite loop on a satellite orbiting our dead planet, forever powered by the sun, so that life, consciousness, would live on. Dec 22, 2012 is merely the date where the simulation resets and loops back to the beginning again. Probably because it was the date the original Earth came to and end, they simply had no more data for the simulation and decided to just let it continuously reset at that point so that it remained a controlled simulation.

before coroline. Goddamn the 2012 trailer looks a million times better on the big screen. I know I shouldn't, being all cultured and shit, but fuckit I probably will go see this at the cinema... Oh and Disney just bought Marvel for 4 billion or something...

The ending will be the waters recede, the people and animals walk out of the boats and a dove lands on someone's hand. They hold it up looking at the sun and the bird flies off. The land looks all clean and all the buildings and cars and dirty power plants are gone. The president says..."CHANGE! CAN YOU DIG IT!" The survivors will rebuild a better world. Happy ending.... or I hope those are spaceships and this is really a "remake" of WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE ( could still have the same ending on second thought : )
