2012 (The Movie)

Not impressed.

The science is crap. The plot is crap. The writing is crap. The acting is crap. But I guess that was all to be expected in a film where the focus is digital effects, which sometimes also bordered on crap.

It had nothing even to do with 2012 and the supposed Mayan prophecy of the end of the world, except that the events depicted in the film had the numbers "2012" conveniently flashed across the screen before it all went to hell.

Oh, and not to mention that the writers (Roland Emmerich and Harald Kloser) were too pussy to destroy Mecca, but were completely OK toppling the statue of Jesus in Rio and knocking out the Tibetan monk's humble abode in the Himalayas. Yeah, obviously because Christians/Catholics and Buddhists are a little more tolerant than Muslims.

Oh, this just in (well it's not news, but I just found out) - Roland Emmerich is gay.

Couldn't have put that better myself.
