Our first look Master of Disaster Roland Emmerich’s new disaster film, “2012″, has arrived online. It’s a short teaser, just barely over a minute long, featuring what appears to be a monk racing up a long slope of mountains to a temple, and then looking out at — egads, an ocean towering over said mountains! (I’m guessing oceans aren’t supposed to get this high?) The ocean wipes away the temple, while titlecards ask us what our governments would do in the face of an impending, world-ending natural disaster. It then answers itself: Nothing. Because, you know, governments suck and such. Anyways, enjoy the teaser.
Never before has a date in history been so significant to so many cultures, so many religions, scientists, and governments. 2012 is an epic adventure about a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world and tells of the heroic struggle of the survivors.
It looks like another CGI-heavy disaster movie from Roland Emmerich. Should be good, clean, a billion people die fun!
