Fan Film Friday: New 2012 Trailer

10 July 2009 11:00 AM, PDT | From The Flickcast | See recent The Flickcast news

We haven’t posted all that much about Roland Emmerich’s epic disaster movie 2012 here at the site because it doesn’t really look all that good. There was a punchy little trailer about a month back, which we posted for your viewing pleasure, but that didn’t really raise our expectations. Thankfully, the friendly folks at i09 put together this lovely remix of the trailer, to show off it’s true nature, and help us all comprehend how ridiculous the movie really looks.

For those still thinking optimistically, the film is written and directed by Roland Emmerich, who brought us such films as 10,000 BC and The Day After Tomorrow. According to IMDb, the movie is “an epic adventure about a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world and tells of the heroic struggle of the survivors.”

Those survivors include such names as John Cusack, Amanda Peet, Thandie Newton,

Synopsis: Never before has a date in history been so significant to so many cultures, so many religions, scientists, and governments.

'2012' Trailer, Shot By Shot: The Beginning Of The End

19 June 2009 3:31 AM, PDT | From MTV Movie News | See recent MTV Movie News news

John Cusack and Amanda Peet run for their lives in this action-packed sneak peek.

By Larry Carroll

"2012"

Nobody makes a better movie trailer than Roland Emmerich — the man behind "Independence Day," "The Day After Tomorrow" and "Godzilla." And while many might be tempted to insert a joke here about how good or bad those movies actually turned out to be, we'll hold our tongues and simply say this: "2012" looks awesome.

So, with our fingers crossed that the November 13 apocalyptic action flick actually delivers the goods, we present our shot-by-shot breakdown of the latest masterpiece by the world's greatest movie-trailer director:

Shot 1: "Mankind's Earliest Civilization ... "

Shot 2: Some Mayan ruins

Shot 3: " ... Warned Us ... "

Shot 4: Outer space. Uh-oh, this isn't looking good for the little blue marble we call home.

Shot 5: " ... This Day Would Come." Darkening forests and the eclipsed sun, with the words playing over them.

Roland Emmerich’s 2012 Trailer Starring John Cusack

18 June 2009 11:50 PM, PDT | From FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news

There was a time when Roland Emmerich was one of the biggest directors working in Hollywood, both in terms of box office numbers and spectacle, but lately his FX-heavy blockbusters have started to feel somewhat dated and hokey. It's true that his last film, 10,000 BC, was pretty awful, and The Day After Tomorrow wasn't much better, and yet, there's still something about a new Roland Emmerich flick that feels like an event. Up until now, we've only had a small hint of what his new movie 2012 is all about, but this week the full trailer has been unleashed and by all accounts, it looks to be a fine return to form for Emmerich. Starring John Cusack, Thandie Newton, Woody Harrelson, Amanda Peet, Oliver Platt and Chiwetel Ejiofor, 2012 is quite simply about the end of the world as predicted by the ancient Mayan calendar. The trailer is chock full of global

Explosive Domestic And International Trailers For 2012!

18 June 2009 11:23 PM, PDT | From FilmShaft.com | See recent FilmShaft.com news

Can I just say, director Roland Emmerich concerns me. It seems to me that finding the most painfully creative and apocalyptic ways to destroy our civilisation in film, is possibly not the healthiest past time. I shudder to think what would happen were he ever to become President of the United States, suffice to say we would all either be underwater following a panicked chase scenes or being blown to bits by aliens.

Having said that, the films are pretty good. And adding to his list of apocalyptic blockbusters this year, is a little film called 2012. Now finally the domestic and international trailers for 2012, starring John Cusack, Amanda Peet and Chiwetel Ejiofor have been released!

While some have been knocking the over-blown special effects, I have to say that having watched the trailers, the visuals are truly breathtaking.

2012 destroys UK cinemas on 13th November 2009, check out the trailers below:

The Trailer for Roland Emmerich's '2012'

18 June 2009 9:10 PM, PDT | From CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news

Move over Michael Bay. It's time for Chicken Little, a film by Roland Emmerich. Yes, we jest, but only mildly. In the trailer for Emmerich's latest disaster film, 2012, the sky really does seem to be falling, along with practically everything else on Earth, and the VFX-heavy film seems destined to give Michael Bay's visual effects-oriented movies a real run for their money. To watch the new trailer for 2012, click on the Trailer tab above.

In 2012, a large group of people must deal with natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, typhoons, seismic catastrophes and melting glaciers. The idea is born from the Mayan calendar, which predicts the end of the world in 2012.

The new film is written and directed by Emmerich, the man behind such large-scale films as Independence Day, Godzilla and The Day After Tomorrow (his other large-scale disaster flick).

2012 stars John Cusack, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Amanda Peet, Oliver Platt,

2012 Trailer = Bananas

18 June 2009 9:00 PM, PDT | From CultureMagazine.ca | See recent CultureMagazine news

Like all good Roland Emmerich movies, 2012 looks to have no shortage of massive destruction: meteors, tidal waves, blizzards. But don't worry! The end of the world, as foretold by the Mayans, is no match for . . . John Cusack and Amanda Peet? Well, at least Chiwetel Ejiofor thinks people should fight for their lives. Fight what, I'm not sure, because like the earth is careening into the sun or some such, but fight they must! That sexy dude commands it. In the meantime, watch the trailer and n [...]

One trailer premiered via Yahoo! Movies is the American version, while the other one is a German version. Displaying cataclysms happening around the world which include erupting volcano and giant tsunami, the trailers also give out a look at how people fight for survival in the world that is collapsing quickly before their very eyes.

From the man who brings forth "10,000 B.C." and "The Day After Tomorrow", "2012" presents an epic adventure about a global cataclysm leading to the end of the world and focuses on the heroic struggle of the survivors. It

18 June 2009 1:34 PM, PDT | From cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news

Roland Emmerich.s next disaster movie, 2012, seems to exist in a future where everything just sort of falls over. The film.s first trailer is a marked improvement over the teaser, which showed a few monks drowning. This time, it.s explosions and earthquakes and collapsing buildings right up until the very last moment when an aircraft carrier named John F. Kennedy falls over on the White House. Oh and there.s John Cusack and Amanda Peet, trying to drive faster than the end of the world. Emmerich.s last few movies have been a waste of time, but maybe, just maybe he.s returned to form with 2012. Watch the trailer below, or in high-res at Yahoo with a special intro by Roland Emmerich.

The world destroyed (again) in new '2012' trailer!

18 June 2009 11:53 AM, PDT | From screeninglog.com | See recent screeninglog news

Roland Emmerich is back destroying everything on the face of the Earth in "2012," his latest apocalyptic adventure that will hit theaters Nov. 13, 2009.

A brand-new trailer for the action flick has just debuted online, and you can check it out below. Judging by this footage, chances are we'll see more destruction than ever before in an Emmerich flick.

The film focuses on a little group of people struggling with the large-scale cataclysm ensuing from the end of the world in 2012. John Cusack, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Thandie Newton, Oliver Platt, Danny Glover and Amanda Peet star.

Trailers for Emmerich flicks always look epic and neat, and this one is certainly no exception. Okay, Cusack driving a car out a moving plane is a tad too insane for my taste, but then again, is there ever anything realistic in his films in the first place?
