2012 - The Movie

The buzz behind the End of the World has not fizzled, in fact, with the new movie 2012 coming out, the genre has stepped it up a notch.
Not since the 1950's have we seen such a resurgence in apocalyptic literature and film. Even on T.V.
I am anxiously awaiting the release of The Road to film, but 2012 looks to be the blockbuster of all End of the World flicks. Directed by the same guy that did The Day After Tomorrow, Roland Emmerich (does this guy love this genre or what!) it looks like a digital masterpiece. Hope John Cusack is the right lead for this movie.

Knowing, apocalyptic film

Having seen Knowing on my satellite yesterday, I'd like to quickly review it - an apocalyptic movie in absolute terms.
The way he comes to "know" is very well done. In fact the first half was definately my favorite part of the movie.
I liked the idea that they used the aliens that met biblical characters thousands of years ago. That was a theory I had read up on a while ago myself.
The movie could have gone without that aspect, but in the end, they were the only ones offering any hope at all.


All in all I enjoyed it. 8 out of 10 from me.

"I know that a single action can put in motion a series of repercussions. Should the action be positive, the repercussions are reqarding, but when that action is negative, so too are the events to follow. A single action can change you forever. Sometimes, if the deed is large enough, if the intent evil enough, the results can be disastrous." - Joel

A work of apocalyptic fiction that is akin to Lord of the Flies and The Road.
