Trailer

Knowing Roland Emmerich, this will have an all star cast delivering extremely cliche dialogue, with an pretty predictable plot and cheesy "emotional" scenes.
But when you're seeing all of that - hopefully on a huge screen in the theater? I won't really care so much.

When you call anything with harsh vocals "screamo", it makes as much sense as calling anything with distorted guitar "heavy metal".

It basically looks like The Day After Tomorrow Part 2 to me. I may see it or I may not. We'll see.

Except bigger, crazier and with stronger lead actors (John Cusack, Woody Harrelson, Thandie Newton).

However implausible or unbelievable, a group of characters survive somehow. From this statement, I should assume you didn't even watch the trailer.

Sure, but it's still based on the impending occurence of a highly overhyped natural disaster, something Emmerich has been known for as of late.

I'll probably see it when it comes to DVD.

Saw it.

I went in expected The Day After Tomorrow Part II...and in that regard I was not disappointed.

It's a by the numbers Roland Emmerich end of the world movie. This one seemed a bit sloppier than most.

Still want to see this cause it should be pretty epic in a theater.

I probably wouldn't pay 10 dollars to see this in theaters. Maybe when it comes out though.

What's the point of watching a special-effects-fest like 2012 on a TV screen? If you're not going to see it in theatre, don't bother seeing it at all.

In other news, I will never watch this movie.

Saw it a night or two ago while on the road with the band and having nothing to do at the hotel.

I don't want to put this title on anything because there could be a couple I'm forgetting...but this could be the worst movie I've ever seen.

It was pretty bad. I don't like Cusack to begin with. I'm getting bored with the end of the world movies.

Are you and me the only ones? Vampires and the Apocalypse are getting so old. Every other movie that's coming out these days has that "the world has ended or is ending" atmosphere.
The movie industry is starving for something original in that genre, and I haven't seen anything live up to originality yet.
