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.
