Anyone see it last night? We're going in a couple of hours (so don't give anything away ) - just wondering what anyone thought if they saw it.

It's out already?

I had no idea...

Opened last night.

KOST FM reviewed it yesterday, said it was a struggle just to get though the movie to hear the Adam Lambert song. Much like the life lesson given in War Of The Worlds, the question is "Why does Earth have to be razed so that one man can become a better father?"

Yeah; Friday the 13th....ooh I'm so skeered....

I've heard reviews on several radio-shows.....according to these reporters, people in the theaters were LTAO at some of the lines that were spoken.

Um....yeah; I'll pass.....

Sounds like a fuckin' waste of time & money to me. I heard this movie is just all-around BAD. All VFX, shit story/acting. It's being panned across the board as an expensive mistake.

OTOH, The Road sounds like it may be a cool movie.

Save your bucks for Ninja Assassin next week, peeps!!

Is Sho Kosugi in it?

38% from rottentomatoes.com ...

Though at least one reviewer liked it: "The Ron Jeremy of disaster porn."

Nope. At least I don't think so.

For the record, the Mayans never said the world would end in 2012. It just happens to be the end of the fourth cycle of their long count calender. For them, it marked a time of celebration, not annihilation.They fully expected another cycle to start after this one was complete. Then the Spanish showed up and that was the end of the long count system.

Well, you can bet your ass on one thing. There won't be an available pew seat the day before, and everyone will be partying like it was 1999 again the day after.

Well, the Friday night box office number alone is 23 million. Expected to do huge numbers.

Which just proves that people will watch anything......

It is a popcorn movie. Meant as a way to get a way from it all for a couple of hours.

Transformers 2 is another popcorn movie, better than it's first but not a great movie.

This is a better show than that 2012 flick.

Try telling that to sheeple...

Stop trying to confuse us with the facts, Gunby!! You're ruining a perfectly good panic.

this is going to have to be pretty bad to top Day After Tomorrow or War of the Worlds or

Mars Attacks..

shame, cuse John Cusack is a great actor that never got his due.. he sold out to the big budget..

OH, why not. He deserves a huge hit, whether it is a great movie or not, after all the great small films he has done.

Well - wasn't the worst movie I've seen but not great. Like someone said - good way to pass a couple of hours eating popcorn (plus movies are pretty cheap here ) And I do like John Cusack.

Yeah. "Paranormal Activity" made a ton of money too.

Doesn't mean it was good.

I will see it because I love John Cusack. My friends saw it this weekend and liked it so I'm hoping it will be worth it. Though I don't believe in all the Myan stuff. I mean I KNOW they were intelligent, but I am agreeing with Gunbot on this one.

I'm agreeing too.

John Cusack, huh? Nice. Ya know, he's still pretty good looking.
I like him as an actor too.

My sister (who LOVED him when she was in high school) had the chance to talk to him a few times at a job she used to have... he was a client and she had him on the phone a few times (imagine her shock!)... and she said he was kind of a dick. I think she said he came in once too. This was in the early 90s.

Our family saw it tonight and all liked it. It was fun.

Yeah? I might check it out. Not sure. The preview looked kind of fun.

Saw it and it was fun.

Some corny lines? Sure...But when you go in knowing that movies like this usually do
not have a strong script, then it;s not so bad.

Great effects and action.


There's even some good ole John Cusak humor thrown in as well.

That's just because people are flocking to the movie in hopes that Barack Hussein Obama is in the White House when the USS John F Kennedy crushes it....

Who is Obama? I only know of an Obumblefuck in the White House

Don't listen to the reviews....The wife and I went last night and the movie is GREAT!

Sure...it isn't grounded in science or anything, but it is VERY entertaining. Which is what a movie is supposed to be right?
