Roland Emmerich Is Already Working On A 2012 Sequel Fair enough. But I Lots Of Love the fact that he is actually calling it 2013. Smart. The Mayans up in Mayan Heaven are like, uh, what?

I actually hope the world ends in 2011 just to prove this clown wrong

We can come up with a better name than 2013. Apocalypse 2012 Redux? 2012inator 2: Judgment Day? Step Up 2012 The Streets? Fuck You Mayan Cosmology 2: Fuck Harder? Well, maybe not.

I'm really excited for this movie about a new calendar. "Oh, boy! And just look at these exciting new dates! So crazy!"
In reality, though, this infuriates me way more than it should. Every time I pass the New Age "The world will end in 2012!" display at the local bookstore, I feel a white-hot pain behind my left eye, a pain so excruciating it is like part of my soul has died. NO THAT ISN'T WHAT IT MEANS YOU ARE STUPID I HATE YOU SO MUCH JBNLARGHNkalsckwagl, and then death.

T.V. show. Movie. They're basically the same thing. And on a side note, because I never know when to shut up: that is a pretty half-assed apocalypse. You mean there's still people roaming the earth after it's consumed itself in a series of highly implausible yet beautifully CGIed events in its desperate attempt to murder John Cusack? That seems a little unlikely to me. I don't know if I'll be able to suspend my disbelief for this.

if we are to believe prophecies, the actual apocalypse would be made worse because there are survivors (if we believe the bible, nonbelievers get left, if we believe the mayans, about 10% of earth survives, if the guidestones in Atlanta hold the real truth, the earth will kill us off to achieve a balance of 500 million humans on the entirety of the earth)

But yeah,
living survivors = sadness;
all of us dead yields no survivors = no feelings at all cuz we's all dead

I'm still having a difficult time imagining how humanity survives the world literally falling into itself. (I'm just using what the trailers have supplied here.)

Best part of the article, "ABC, 'will have an opening in their disaster-related programming after Lost ends'" The Best! An opening in their disaster related programming. Amazing! That is a very specific kind of programming. Also, I think they're forgetting about FlashForward, which I'm pretty sure everyone agrees is a disaster.

"Good morning. Good morning.
In less than an hour, The Patriots from here will be Making Contact with others from around the world, and you will be launching the largest Stargate battle against the Earth since 10,000 B.C.
We can't be consumed by Eight-Legged Freaks any more. We will be united in our common interest in Trade. Perhaps it's fate that The Day After Tomorrow is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom. Not from tyranny, oppression, Universal Soldiers or Godzilla monsters, but from The Earth itself. We're fighting for our right to live, to exist, and should we win the day, 2012 will no longer be known as a mayan calendar apocalyptic High Crusade, but as the day when the world declared in one voice, 'We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on, we're going to suh-VIVE!'
Today we celebrate our 2013 television series currently in development.. uh... Independence Day!"

Personally, I can't wait to see people outrun natural disasters/Acts of God every week: "Oh no! It's the Plague! Let's head for that abandoned library and pile some furniture against the door so it can't get us!"

2013: Electric Boogaleen

Later

2014: The Final Chapter
2015: The New Beginning

Then look for the prequels. 2011 of them. And finally, Wall-E, the story of the true end of the world, being burried in crappy movies about the end of the world.
