    So it seems after that teaser that Roland Emmerich has nothing but an enormous boner for tidal waves.

    Also if that is the extent of his disaster, a giant wave sweeping the planet, and the rest is some fucking shit story about family I'm going to fucking lose it.

    The Day After Tomorrow had plenty of promise but for a disaster movie it was surprisingly short on disaster. A giant tornado and and a tidal wave. That was it.

    I am coming to your movie to see the world torn apart. I don't need to see Jake Gyllenhal being useless holing up in a fucking library while his father walks from Philly to New York in under 24 hours.

    Your fuckin' family's dug into the Southie projects like ticks. You, however, grew up on the North Shore, huh? Well, la-di-fuckin'-da. You were kind of a double kid, I bet, right? Huh? One kid with your old man, one kid with your mother. You're upper-middle class during the weeks, then you're droppin' your "R"s and you're hangin' in the big, bad Southie projects with your daddy on the weekends. I got that right?

    You only have a handful of them left; enjoy.

    I think that if the End of the World really does come around in 2012, I would probably enjoy it with a nice bottle of scotch. Maybe some whores. Yeah, definitely whores.

    Yes.

    You were born on the solstice.

    You may also be the anti-christ, though I have a better claim to it.

    The Mayans didn't know shit.

    The Olmecs were where it was at.

    They built temples.

    Hidden temples.

    They still tell their legends...

    Hogwash, they're making a third one.

    From what I've been able to glean, the whole 2012 issue boils down to a slight shift in the Earth's magnetic poles. It has happened many times in the past and will continue to do so in the future.

    http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2001/ast15feb_1.htm

    The only thing I'd really worry about is the severity of the shift and how it would affect the climate. A few degrees? No big deal. If the poles flipped completely 180 degrees in about a day, then we would have thousand mile per hour gales sandblasting the surface of the planet smooth.

    So, you know, maybe we should start digging.

    edit: Yeah, the article only says that we're "overdue" for a pole shift, I know.
    the earth's magnetic field shifting doesn't really have an noticeable effect on weather, so the only people that would notice would be people monitoring the earth's magnetic field (and of course you can monitor it in a crude sense with a compass and it would react to the polar shift)

    I'm not too worried about this, because I'm going to die on April 18th of 2009, probably around 1:25 in the morning.
