Don't believe the ark!

Wed, 24 Feb 2010 20:26:11 +0000

For those who managed to escape in the ark, in reality, they would have died of a pulmonary embolism. The problem is they went from sea level to Mount Everest height in a matter of seconds. Unless the ark was pressurized, like what we do when travelling in airplanes. However, as noted in the movie, one part of the bulkhead was open making pressurization impossible. Thus, the ark was a death trap. I hear they will be making a TV series based on this movie. It would be pretty interesting if it covers what happens after the event. Otherwise, I see an X-files type show where they cover the various anomalies and conspiracies that exist today concerning 2012.

I have not seen the movie, but from an interview I saw with Emmerich, the "2012" angle was really just a gimmick tacked on to the main story-line, which is a modern "noah's ark" tale.

My review of the movie 2012 as sent through e-mail correspondance

1). "2012"
A). Actually, it was a better movie; than, I had expected.
B). The biggest problems that the movie had was:
1). The director/screenwrite had pushed the envelope having the main character's group escape circumstances that should have killed them in favor of dramatic effect.
2). The film didn't offer anything more to the formula being used, so it was a dry storyline that they tried using humor to cover.
3). The ending had too much of a humorous tone to it.
4). The biggest flaw was when the scientist character, who wasn't in charge of the government, had convinced the ark's to open their doors to those whose ark had been rendered not-manueuverable.
C). The film did a better job focusing on the main character; than, other movies that have been coming out like "Knowing". It could have been done better.

The film would have been better off if they didn't try to focus on two different viewpoint characters, picked a better literary formula, and wrote the story fom there.

Additional thoughts
"Destroying the world makes an interesting story"-

There's technically three ways to view this statement:
1). Literally.
Some circumstance leads to the destruction of the world.
2). Individually/Socally
Some circumstance ends the world as a person or social structure knows it. Real life example, would be the change in the United State's isolationism prior to the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Drama, lost of a loved one through death or dumping. There are numerous ways to handle this prospective.
3). Philosophical
The best example I can think of off top of my head is through a question, If a sediment was removed from North America, wouldn't the world as we know it have been destroyed?-My mythology teacher had once asked me a similar question.

Hi Posh,
Like I said about my $10. It isn't going to affect Sony Pictures either way. You should go ahead and see it since you want to and you won't be frightened by it.

I'm slightly torn by the 2012 movie.

I want to watch it, simply because it looks like an awesome mindless disaster flick but at the same time, I know that if I do watch it then I'll feel like I'm supporting this 2012 scam. Such a dilemma!

I agree with that. Playing it off like it's really going to happen is wrong and BS. That's actually how I found this site - it freaked my cousin out, so I was looking for a good site to show her it wasn't real, and found this one. Keep up the awesome work! =)

Hi Tiger Dancer,
I would have gone to the movie because I too like the genre. But I am angry with Sony Pictures for the terrible marketing campaign they have used to make people think it is real and make money off their fear. I know they won't miss my $10, but I am stubborn. Thanks for spreading the word about this site.

I'm gonna go watch the movie - but only because I like that type of movie. :P

I had never heard of the whole 2012 thing until someone mentioned after watching Knowing. Now, I'm gong to post the link to this site as often as possible.
