This is a very recent trailer for the upcoming move 2012 directed by Roland Emmerich written by Harald Kloser and staring John Cusack, Thandie Newton, Amanda Peet, and Oliver Platt. This trailer makes the movie look insanely good, however, Roland Emmerich's last film was 10,000 B.C. and before that came The Day After Tommorrow, two films that were generally huge disappointments. I will hand it to him though, even though The Day After Tommorrow had a completely ridiculous plot and basically made up laws of nature and science to fit an ice age into 2 whole hours, I was still completely immersed into the film while I was watching it; he can tell a human story. This next film looks like just that, a story about everyday people fighting to survive a global catastrophe. As long as he doesn't make the story the exact same again, it has potential. This is also a movie that may not require any scientific explanation for the events except for the Mayan prediction, which can give him ultimate freedom to just beat the crap out of the planet however he wants. I'm looking forward to seeing it just out of curiosity, but I have no real high hopes. This film is set to release on November 13, 2009.
