I have always had a warped fascination with doomsday ideas. I still recall the first book of the Bible I ever read was Revelation in the New Testament.So every time a movie comes out concerning the end , I'm there.
So with the new doomsday flick 2012 , I have read and watched with interest all the hype around the film. The trailer looks amazing , at least in terms of special effects. The movie is centered around the idea that on Dec. 21 ,2012 there will be some sort of catastrophic event and will have massive doomsday implications. Loosely based on some Mayan ancient prediction that indicates the end . Apparently their calender ends on that date. Plus there have been other so called prophecies that indicate some form of dire event around this time.
Now I don't put stock in this stuff at all but will watch the film with interest. But I do hold all of history will one day come to an end in judgment , when the King of Kings comes in glory . That day will be terrifying beyond measure and will make all these movies or other false predictions pale in comparison.
What I do find interesting is the movie studio putting out 2012 has movies slated and are in pre production right now for 2013. I guess they don't believe their own hype concerning the movie. As they say in show biz , the show must go on apocalypse or not ...
