VIDEO: 2012 Trailer - When Cali crumbles into the sea, you want a Lincoln Town Car

Although the Summer Blockbuster season has officially ended (and not a moment too soon), on November 13, Hollywood is putting out yet another epic disaster flick produced by the same fertile minds that brought you The Day After Tomorrow, Independence Day and Alien vs. Predator. Like TF2, 2012 is destined to exchange character development and a cohesive plot for Cray-annihilating graphics, but we're still planning to throw our brains into neutral and hit up the Multiplex to get the full visceral assault when it arrives.
Before 2012 hits theaters next month, Sony Pictures has put out a five and a half minute spoiler of one of the movie's ultimate scenes, in which Jackson Curtis (played by John Cusack) picks up his wife (Amanda Peet), daughter and a few other characters just as the apocalypse kicks into high gear. What follows is one of the best (and by best, we mean ridiculously green-screened and CG'd) scenes that proves once and for all that Ford's decision to kill the Panther platform will have untold consequences when Revelations (or whatever) is realized. Make the jump for the full teaser, along with a parody trailer that sums up our collective grumbling.

I thought about seeing this movie until I saw this preposterous trailer. So many plausible ways to end the world and they choose for things to just implode... and that plane... fly higher morons!

I saw the trailer before Zombieland (Hilarious) this weekend, and thought the same thing about the plane. Just freaking pull up. Also, Santa Monica Airport is like 10 seconds from the ocean, not sure why it took so long to escape.
(Yes, I know. It makes for more excitement)

Exactly, things like the dude not taking the plane higher do repel me from seing a movie. Say bye to my $10.

Shhhhh He didn't get up to 85 knots yet. See what happens when you don't get the right takeoff speed, the ground collapses from under you and you fly below the ground line.

Didn't seem like a problem in Langoliers......

"Shhhhh He didn't get up to 85 knots yet. See what happens when you don't get the right takeoff speed..."
Yeah! What he said! Didn't anyone see Back to the Future? 85 is the magic number. Even I know THAT! :-)
I dunno...looks pretty cool. But aren't there some serious dooms-dayer's who say 12/12/12 is the end? So you'll have a little less than a month to catch the movie when it does come out. Of course if they're wrong...then I guess this will be as climactic as it gets.

^^^ Umm... since when are we in 2012?

...it's what happens when you're up at 5 and try to reply when you're half asleep at 10-10:30 in the evening. My brain was done, my body just refused to go along with it. My bad...LOL and Doh!!!

I'll bet the standard amount that the plane is "too heavy" to fly higher.

For anyone who spent enough Saturday mornings watching World War II movies while growing up, the answer is obvious: "Pull up! Pull up!"

according to your rating i seem to be one of few who assumed you were being sarcastic

Man...you guys just had to find a reason to post this horrible trailer.
The movie will be horrible but for some reason people will go see it...and talk about how scared they are for y2k12 or whatever we start calling it.
balls to you

For the same reason that we see so many other movies, like Transformers: to be entertained.
EXP Jawa 9:21PM (10/05/2009)
I dunno, somehow Transformers struck me as more plausible...
