    Passing a video camera in front of these paintings and then editing the resulting footage together with some loud Wagnerian music would be about 100 times more entertaining than anything Roland Emmerich has ever made.

    In the second image I seriously doubt that Bamboo Reef Sharks would be in such deep water. Furthermore, in the...

    Oh who am I kidding? These are stupid cool and probably more entertaining than sitting through that movie.

    @Grey_Area: It looks like the water has just swept into the city, hence the trucks still floating around with their lights on. The poor sharks were probably swept in by the water. As soon as the water settles they will find a better place to live.
    These pictures are amazingly cool. They are my kind of end of civilization.

    On The Awl, Mary Choi posted a hilarious and very positive review about 2012 that leads me to want to see it (no matter how craptastic):

    Lots of stupid movies make a lot of money. People are dumb; it's not really surprising.

    @Klebert L. Hall: I have not seen the movie, so I have no idea if it is good or not, but to say people are dumb is well dumb. Okay, so not everyone likes the same movies you do, but being a highbrow elitist makes you a better person, really?
    Plus, why sign your name? We can all see who wrote it... #2012

    Nah, I'm dumb too - just dumb in different ways from the people who like this movie.

    I sign my name, because that's the way I was taught to end a text communication. I'm old enought to have been taught proper form for letters, where your name also appears at the top and at the bottom.

    oddly enough, when this movie is the top at the box office it's a sign of the impending apocalypse. granted i like to turn off my brain to watch certain films, but there is a small lump of it that stays active so i realize i'm wasting my time or not. i'd need a full lobotomy to watch this movie. why john why? #2012

    I saw the movie and I cannot envision a sequel.
    Let's just hope Mr. Emmerich made enough money to let him work on some more new ideas. I think he should give up disaster movies and do a hard sci-fi movie. Something with big space ships and lots of exploding planets. #2012

    @reddingofish: The sequel series is supposed to be some kind of Lost-esque nonsense. Not a lot of special effects, just people running around trying to survive bla bla. Low budget stuff for TV

    @burlybax: Don't even think it. Seriously that thought needs to be erased from all existence in the universe. Wasn't McG punishment enough for Terminator fans? #2012

    @Im_your_Huckleberry: @burlybax:
    Believe it or not the original script was worse! It had Helena Bonham Carter take Sam Worthing to some Skynet resort where hybrid human brain in cyborg body types like themselves lived in a luxury robo spa. Apparently Skynet calculated that humanity would destroy itself in less than 200 years so it was actually helping them, trying to save them from themselves.

    Fail. #2012

    what this kind of box office really means is that all the decisions that went into making the film (script, casting etc) have been validated.
    yay.
    more of the same on it's way. #2012
