Alright OT, its you against me!! Tell me why I should pay $15 (au) (roughly lol) to see ol' man Emmerich blow up the US of A with the film 2012!!

I just learnt from our good friends at the IMDB that this movie is - wait for it - 158 minutes!! Yeesh.

But wait it gets worse!! Danny Glover as the President!! Morgan must have been busy...

If you want to see a movie about the end of the world then sure. I suppose if you like special effects you could go see it too. I have a bad feeling some of my friends will want me to see it. At least John Cuscak is in it.

The end is near. You'll probably die while watching it, so what's there to lose?

I suggest you save the money and put it towards something actually useful.

Because you are going to sit in a nice warm place with walls and comfty chairs and the smell of great junk food with colleges and friends and 158 minutes of film which cost lost of dollars to make and sound which also took much detail and effort to create, lots of work hours all done just for you $15 dollars. That's just a start of why.

Lots of effort doesn't guarantee a movie worth watching, though :( I'm curious what theater you usually go to; every one I've ever been in has been freaking freezing and doesn't match what I'd call nice, warm ;)

Here's my answer: Don't see it. That simple. I'm not going to "verse off" against a view I agree with.

Lol .. Well i guess i should have mentioned i am a hot blooded person so i'm always hot, and i go to the IMAX Metreon theater in San Francisco, also the new theater with the leather seats up where the Emporium used to be, across the cabe car on Market street. I believe your from the city so you should be familiar with these places. It don't hurt me to pay $15 dollars and hit the sports bar first at the Metreon and then go and enjoy a movie with friends and co-workers.

You should not pay $15 for 2012. Nobody should. It's people trying to profit off of peoples fears and misconceptions. It's a scam based on a false perception of the Mayan Calendar. I don't get peoples obessesion with misinformation and present day perceptions of mythologys that have changed over time. Nothing means what it used too... people think it does, but it doesn't.
