Enjoy it while it lasts, 2012!

With New Moon opening next weekend, the disaster flick will inevitably be knocked off its high horse, but for now 2012 is #1 at the box office!

Although critics had less than high hopes for the movie, the Sony Pictures flick is expected to earn over $61 million by the weekend's close, with a impressive $23.7 mil earned in ticket sales on Friday alone.

Have U seen it yet???

      It was good, I enjoyed it, but I mean it was a long movie. Towards the end it started getting a little corny and by that time I was just hoping that everyone would just die.



    2. 2

      It was bad ass, but totally fake! Overdone CG made it look wicked fake….



    3. 3

      So who did you blow to get them to run the ad on yer POS site Mario?



    4. 4

      Saw it,loved it!



    5. 5

      DONT WATCH 2012 !!!

      They bomb Christian monuments but not Muslims ones because the director feared Muslim backlash.



    6. 6

      Dont WATCH THIS MOVIE

      They disrepect Christianity and not Islam just because they fear Muslim backlash !!



    7. 7

      Everyone disrespects Christianity lately. This movie does and Curb your Enthusaism does too, but they never do it to Islam. Because they fear that Muslims will retaliate.

      If your going to destroy important Christian monuments then you have to do to to Jewish and Islamic monuments too !

      I saw it and was praying for it to end already. It's way too long and SUPER corny. The action in it is good but it's so predictable. Kind of makes your roll your eyes and think YEAH, what are the chances they'd survive THAT?



    9. 9

      The movie was good but it was a bit too long ._. At the end I seriously just wanted it to be over. And of course there are some critical mistakes like for example -> People talking over cellphone even though there was no radio connection possible. :P But the CGs were awesome



    10. 10

      I heard it was hilarious. I'm seeing it with friends tonight



    11. 11

      Saw it this morning at 9:45am an it was super crowded! Loved the movie…



    12. 12

      too long…over the top special effects with a titanic story line…would love to see it as a 3D movie…Sony next time take a chance



    13. 13

      OMG - I totally can't wait to seeeeeeee ;D — I hope there's annoying Christian's there protesting or some shit.. nothing pumps me up for a movie like elbowing Christian's in the face. YAY! :D



    14. 14

      If you close at that pic you can see the West Hollywood porn arcade that Mario goes to and licks cum off the floor.

      No, I haven't seen it and I'm not gonna. This movie is nothing more than a special effects extravaganza. We've seen it all before. And I don't wanna see a movie about the end of the world where only the rich and powerful are saved. I'm not a huge fan of the Twilight franchise but shit, I think I'm more interested in seeing New Moon than this piece of CGI crap.



    16. 16

      Twilight bearly lasted 1 week in the number one spot. ONE WEEK! Then it dropped of the top 10 movies.



    17. 17

      it was definitely fake how all those people lived, but it was good. slow at some parts but the action scenes were really good.



    18. 18

      It was fun, if you know ahead of time to check your brain at the door. Forget everything you know about basic physics, etc. It's pretty over the top, but the special effects are worth it.



    19. 19

      Curb is a jewish show based on a jewish man…when larry david says jews dont push their religeon on anyone hes right christians try to convert everyone (indians, chinese the WHOLE mnission thing)….the jews went through the holocaust. Leave their temples alone they suffered enough.. christianity is the one and only cause of MOSt wars in history.



    20. 20

      I haven't seen it and I don't want to



    21. 21

      hells ya it was BOMB!!
      i recommend it



    22. 22

      I wanna see it!
      Can't wait for New Moon!!!



    23. 23

      If Mario was a casualty then it wasn't a disaster film.



    24. 24

      Yahoo!

      I can't wait to see it!



    25. 25

      Not my kind of movie. Haven't we seen this before?



    26. 26

      I'd really like to see it. It just that those apocalyptic movies freakin' freak me out! I'm therefore having a hard time convincing myself to watch it.

      Saw it yesterday in France:FX are great but the story and characters are really stupid and it's a few long



    30. 30

      I SAW IT! I LOVED MOST OF IT! LOL



    31. 31

      Re: KillerBunnies – I think that's an important fact to remember as New Moon hype plays out for the next week. I much rather see this movie than New Moon and that's saying a lot because I hate overly-done-special-effects-pieces-of-crap more than anything.



    32. 32

      It was awesome!!! the ending was pretty good. i recommend it! (:



    33. 33

      one it was super long to it was corny at the end i thought they were all going to die and three with the way people hyped it it i thought it was going to be better– new moon didnt even come out yet and its already number lol funny



    34. 34

      I wanted to see this movie sooo bad!!! But they didn't have a showing when I went, so I ended up watching the DUMBEST MOVIE EVER aka Men Who Stare At Goats! *barf*



    35. 35

      Mmhmm I saw it friday and really really liked it!
      Plus I've always loved JOhn Cusack C:



    36. 36

      cheesey but entertaining, wish jimi mistry was in it more but i guess thandie and chiwetel were flying the brit flag also



    37. 37

      Oh, God. Definitely the worst movie I have ever seen. It's unbelievable just how horrible this movie was. The acting was just awful. Every cliche was put in it. OMG. Just…wow. I don't know how John Cusack and Amanda Peet went through this movie with a straight face with such dialogue. Not only it was horrible, but it was too long. And did I mention how bad it looks? It looks TERRIBLE. Like it was shot with a $150 digital camera. My best bet is the director wanted a so-bad-it's-good cult status, but that's not going to happen. I can't imagine anybody enjoying this incredibly mind-numbing piece of garbage. It's an insult to your brain.



    38. 38

      Very cliche. Reminded me of War of the Worlds a little bit.



    39. 39

      Worst fucking film of the year… don't waste your money



    40. 40

      Christians are a bunch of fucking dumb asses who believe the earth is only 6000 years old. Bash away!



    41. 41

      I'm so sick of the critics panning these movies that America likes to watch!!! It's like the Oscar's, how many times do you see a huge blockbuster nominated for awards like an Oscar?! Never!!!! I know these might not be considered the "best" movies, but these are the type of movies American's like to see!! 9/10 times, people don't listen to what the crtics have to say anyway!! I mean most of them are old anyway, of course their not going to admit to liking a movie like this!!!



    42. 42

      Re: 6one9 – I think you are right. Baby's on fire! And yes I am seeing this movie.



    43. 43

      Re: Kamilalil – So what? that's a good thing!.



    44. 44

      I am a humanitarian, and I was crying on and off throughout the whole movie. I just don't handle seeing American buildings fall down over and over…. It was worth seeing though!!! :)

      Yes, it was corny, but the CGI was AMAZING! Hence, my crying.



    45. 45

      There are some religious diehards on this one…suck it up. Who gives a flying shit



    46. 46

      the movie rocked but wont be as good as the last song i cant wait to see that:)



    47. 47

      HOW MANY MORE MOVIES ARE THEY GONNA MAKE ABOUT THE END OF THE WORLD!!!! IM SO OVER IT



    48. 48

      the muslims are loyal to their religion.

      christianty has never suffered like the jews they always punished started wars invated countries put up missons to conform native americans.



    49. 49

      loved it sooooo much =] sooo cool



    50. 50

      I thought 2012 was fantastic, it was long but interesting the entire time. The CGI was the best I have seen in a movie! I loved it including the funny homless lookin guy!



    51. 51

      ARMAGEDDON VERSION 2009!!! CHEESBALL DELUXE



    52. 52

      Please the Jews don't push their religion on anyone?
      Why is that to this day many jewish people will not marry outside of their religion. They are as bad as the Muslims when it comes to this.
      Christians don't give a shit about this kind of stuff.



    53. 53

      Re: DjMittens – There is something wrong with religion that stops people from marrying outside of their religion. Muslims and Jewish are the worst for this.
      I do not believe in organized religion because all it has caused is trouble…historically. I believe in God. That is that.



    54. 54

      Don't think very much of the way Muslims have treated their women…historically.
      I feel that women should not have to cover themselves from head to toe. This is not a choice…this is brainwashing. It needs to stop.



    55. 55

      I read the comments to find out if the movie was worth seeing but to my dismay I found a lot of Muslim bashing. What's the deal with that? It's so sad to read simple minded comments. You know your simple minded if you believe any of the following:
      1. Muslims are forced to cover
      2. Islam oppresses women
      3. All Muslims are terrorists
      4. Islam is a hate reliogion
      5. Any religion is better than the other
      6. All Arabs are Muslims and/or Muslims are Arabs
      7. Afghanistan is an Arab country
      8. Muslims are uncivilized
      9. Suicide bombs originate and/or are majority from Arabs
      10. Democracy is the best thing for Arab and/or Muslim countries

      I have heard many people make these comments like they are educated about Islam or have an understanding about the world around them. Please do the American people a favor and stop speaking about things you don't understand it is so embarrassing to our culture. People who make these types of comments also, if they ever travel, don't understand why so many people abroad are disgusted and cautious of Americans. My advice to you is just listen to yourself and you will understand.

      Viva education!!!!

      Re: *Truth* – You have many statements here. Care to provide any of the facts that you base your opinions on? Because I can pick up virtually anynews paper on the planet and dispute every single item on your list. And I can do this on any day of the week.



    57. 57

      Re: *Truth* – And my opinion is the unanimous one. You are alone with your muslim friends.



    58. 58

      Re: DjMittens – Yes but your talking centuries ago. Christians have evolved. Not all but fundamentalist Muslims continue to reside in the stone age culturally which is why they are so unpopular in every country on earth.



    59. 59

      Want to see it! Im gonna laugh is New Moon doesnt make as much as it was supposed to.



    60. 60

      The movie was great, as it comes to special effects. I would totally cut off all the corny moments, which would mean ALL the dialogues, I mean who writes this badly… This movie could have been really fantastic… but with the way it was done it was just good, full of action and totally nothing more.



    61. 61

      i liked the effects, but is the typical american movie I expected more, I preffer the day after tomorrow



    62. 62

      Re: Laury – if the end of the world comes, only rich people will be save obviously



    63. 63

      It was sooo long!!! And I wanted to sleep… Only the last half of the movie kept me up



    64. 64

      it was supposed to be the end of the world and ppl lived! i thought everyone should have died…but it was still really good either way :D



    65. 65

      Saw it and liked it! Good movie.



    66. 66

      I enjoyed all the action from the movie, but thought the family plot was kind of corny. The movie did make me feel anxious though and was on edge of my seat most of the time. Go see it for yourself :)



    67. 67

      Re: ShellySWhoa – ALSO I didnt like how only the rich were saved and that one middle class family snuck aboard. So woo all the rich fat fucks were saved.



    68. 68

      great movie



    69. 69

      I must say It was a long movie and started off slow, however it was a great movie. I mean all in all it was a good show and worth my money



    70. 70

      re: Monnie- I would be interested in hearing your rebuttle to my arguement. I'm not going to waste my time with an explanation if you cannot take the time to rebuttle first. Might I just add as a word of advice; please choose your words wisely as what you have already used to start your arguement doesn't show much.

      P.S
      Please use valid resources when conducting your arguement as the newspaper, which is written in 6th grade English, is controlled by corporations and limited to what they can write. It also has a very obvious bias. My suggestion to you is to resource outside Western media. Good luck!



    71. 71

      This video got a standing ovation at the threatre I was at. Though there is some stuff in it that doesn't make sense. For example:

      Yellowstone erupted which is true, it can happen but when they were running away from the Fallout…it's like they seriously slowed down the Fallout just so the heroes could get away. Fallout is FAST. And as soon as that plane entered it just before they got away completely, it would of died from ash being in the systems and the second was at the end. The earth would soon be covered in Fallout and a nuclear winter would set in.



    72. 72

      It's awesome. Eff the critics this time.



    73. 73

      THIS MOVIE WAS PRETTY BAD! I WAS REALLY TEMPTED TO ASK FOR MY MONEY BACK. I KNEW THE STORY WAS GONNA SUCK, BUT I THOUGHT MAYBE THE SPECIAL EFFECTS WOULD MAKE UP FOR IT. BUT NOT! THE SPECIAL EFFECTS WERE PRETTY BAD TOO…
