My significant spouse and I are debating whether to go to “2012″. I, naturally, am firmly in the “Yup” camp as destruction of this quality and scope comes perhaps once in a Sci-Fi movie going lifetime. The spouse unit thinks that maybe the movie could be depressing and perhaps a “cryer”. A sobbing wife in public is a troubling thing, fraught with hormonal minefields with plenty of room for stupid husbandy fumblings. So, I may go alone and make it a reporters outing. I’m with you Roland!

Here’s an interview with John Cusak, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Amanda Peet as they wax on about their feelings about that date thing and their experiences working on the film. Thanks Comingsoon.

A snip:

Q: What are your personal thoughts of what will happen in 2012?

John Cusack: Do you know the book, “The Return of Quetzalcoatl”? That book, I think, is a little more in line with what I think will happen; a shift in consciousness. That seemed to be more of what I think will happen rather than an actual end of days.

Chiwetel Ejiofor: I’ll just spend it kind of quietly with family and friends and hope for the best. I don’t have a real opinion about 2012. I think it is like John said, a shift in consciousness. It feels like things are converging and that something has to change and maybe it will center around that time.

Amanda Peet: I am kind of a hypochondriac, and I worry about a lot of things, so I’m really going try to not worry about it too much.
