    I think its fitting that this is coming out soon given Mayan world-views. The calander they deivsed centuries ago is far more accurate than our modern Gregorian-based calander and according to their beliefs, the galaxy will be destroyed and be reborn again in 2012, I beleive sometime around the winter solstice, hence the apocalypse. Kind of freaky how knowledgable these folks were. They charted the exact center of our galaxy long ago and new of the existence of a black hole at the center. How they knew this noone knows, but they did nevertheless. So......better smoke em if you got em, cause maybe its all going down in 2012!!

    Do we have to learn the ancient Mayan language to understand it? Let me guess, the movie will be about a group of people that doesn't believe in Jesus, so they are wiped out.

    My acumen's just fine, and your information on the Mayan Civilization was interesting- Just the whole 'oh my god the end of the world thing' kinda took me for a ride.

    just bad memories of Weekly World News

    I like Mel Gibson's work as well. I thought Passion got a bum rap- and of course everyone likes Braveheart. This and the Da-Vinci Code or tops on my list.
