2012 Movie Box Office
December 14th, 2009 · Uncategorized
Now that it’s all over, of course the end result is what matters… how did it perform at the box office?
According to Box Office Mojo – http://boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=2012.htm it did about $155M domestically and rather better in the worldwide release – almost $700M. As would be expected I suppose for a movie with worldwide repercussions.
What do you think? Should the movie have done better or flopped? Post comments below.

NASA Opposes 2012 and End of the World
November 13th, 2009 · Uncategorized
“Nothing bad will happen to the Earth in 2012,” states NASA in a new FAQ web page set up for the occasion.
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/11/11/nasa_world_not_ending_2012/
“Our planet has been getting along just fine for more than 4 billion years, and credible scientists know of no threat associated with 2012.”
http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/2012.html
One question on the faq — “Q: How do NASA scientists feel about claims of pending doomsday?” hahaha
No way! Well at least we know NASA’s not planning anything. Maybe next ask Bin Laden?

Wall Street Journal 2012 Review
November 13th, 2009 · Uncategorized
Joe Morgenstern didn’t seem to think it was a great movie… too long mostly and formulaic. Too bad. Roland Emmerich’s other films were kind of epic and interesting, but apparently this one did not make the grade. I’ll still go see it eventually, or maybe wait until it’s on DVD and will probably enjoy it. But the length of the movie is a little troublesome. I always prefer a 90 minute movie. Still, John Cusack is always entertaining to watch, and you can’t go wrong with Woody!

2012 Doomsday Scenarios – The Mayan Calendar Seems to Predict the End of the World in 2012
September 28th, 2009 · Uncategorized
Yes it’s true that the Mayan Calendar ends in 2012. But wouldn’t they just start a new one? Or were they hoping that the Mayan civilization would last until 2012? Maybe some secret Mayan society that was just hanging on is about to lose it’s last member? Maybe it’s just a numerology thing and just a coincidence? About.com has got you covered with answers to these and all your other 2012 questions –

Death from the Skies – Some Light Reading
August 10th, 2009 · Uncategorized
Plait, an astronomer and author of the popular Web site badastronomy.com, presents in loving detail the many, many ways the human race could die, from temperature extremes and poisonous atmosphere to asteroid impacts and supernovae explosions. Such a state of destruction existed some 65 million years ago, when a giant meteoroid struck Earth, sending up so much flaming debris that the whole planet caught fire and the dinosaurs were wiped out. Solar flare activity could bring on another Ice Age. Worse yet would be a gamma ray burster, a collapsed star whose radiation would be comparable to detonating a one-megaton nuclear bomb over every square mile of the planet.

2012: Supernova from Asylum
August 8th, 2009 · Uncategorized
I heard Asylum was planning a sequel to their movie 2012: Doomsday. I didn’t know any details, nor did I watch the first movie, butit struck me as kind of funny Asylum would do a sequel to a movie in which the world has already ended.
So anyway, I was poking on their web site a few days ago and again today, and I just noticed this –http://www.theasylum.cc/product.php?id=161 I swear it was not there a couple days ago. This movie 2012: Supernova, doesn’t look like a sequel, so perhaps I was wrong about there being a sequel to 2012: Doomsday, it’s just another 2012 / apocolypse movie.
Still, imagine any other movie studio. Yes, sometimes you see two similar movies coming out around the same time. Not to get stuck on the disaster theme, but a made for TV movie Asteroid came out in 1997 and Deep Impact was released as a theatrical release in 1998. But these are competing studios. Wouldn’t Asylum be worried about cannibalizing their other 2012 movie by flooding the market with so many end of the world movies called 2012. I guess not!
