I need to ask this now

A lot of people with very little imagination (or rather, an over-active imagination) have apparently seen a mediocre money-making exercise - I mean, film - which appeals to the nihilist in all of us and have thus concluded that the world will end. I suspect it might become a self-fulfilling prophecy: if enough people believe the world will end, there's probably not a great deal that the sane can do about it.

Hi, all this caos are coming from the May calendar and theyr profecyes, they think that on 21 december 2012 the earth will end, but isn't so. With the new film and the documentary that we have see in this days, some people think it's all true, but the science say that at the 2012 it will be a special day but not the end of the earth, and also if you read the Bible, you can see that it's all false. I have seen the film and if you like to see it you must only think it's all false...

Hi Ya Gabs, I watched the previews for 2012 I think there is going to be a lot of action in this one. I will see it as soon as I can because I like movies like that. There is always a whole lot of hype done to make people want to go see them.. More money to be made. Just like the big to do over the Blair witch. No one can really say for sure when the world will end or even if it will end. And if it does none of us will be left to wonder why , so why worry before hand. Hehehe I have too much stuff else to worry about now days with out being worried about something I can't change. Hugs ~~Jodi

the Mayan calendar ends this cycle in Dec of 2012, the "end of the world" "fearests" say the world is going to end then, because the calendar ends then. Yes, they have done a movie about it, same kind of movie as the "day after tomorrow" type movies. Don't buy it for a minute. Personally, I'll believe the world is going to end when they "bring the boxes" (when I see it.)

I think people are worrying because of all the so-called prophecies about 2012. Personally, I'm not worrying. I've been through enough "end of the world's" and we're still here so.... And, if the world does end in 2012, so what? We'll all be gone... poof! No worrying! I'd kinda like to know when the time gets closer if it's really going to happen because I won't bother getting out the Christmas decorations that year and won't bother buying all the gifts.

what i am saying amigo is i will go to sleep immediately after this response,huh. in my life,i never think about the ending of world,extraterrestrial or something like that. my friend if these things sare u and make you insomnia,pls stay away from them and you say someone people show you bad words,pls leave them alone,don't take them to ur heart where this come from,i think most of them from the image of Hollywood's directors Good sleep:)

Awwwww well ya know that these nuts out there has once a gain picked a year for the world to end. I am not goin gto worry about it if it does end then we will all be gone no more owrry!

Gaby, don't worry about it - just ignore it. It is primarily a money-making thing, and it appears to be quite successful. It is a top discussion not only here, but on the streets and everywhere. No doubt the fil and books will earn some people lots of money. The idea originated from the Mayan calendar (wrongly) but you know some people: jump on anything and of course, it is always bad news or impending disaster that will engage peoples' attention. Just ignore the whole thing.

There was a thing in a magazine about the movie 2012. But they said if one really looked into this whole thing about the world ending in 2012 according to the Mayan calendar they would know they were wrong. I'm quoting straight from the magazine here. According to Harvard anthropologist Marc Zender, the idea of the world ending in 2012 originated from the 1960s New Age mystics. He says, "The Mayan calendar is a cycle, and it doesn't end in 2012." I was turned off by the trailer for the movie 2012. I feel like it preys on people's fears. Now before any fan of the movie jumps on my case, that is just my opinion. Besides all that, it looks boring to me. Just another disaster movie.

I noticed that too. I just am not going to buy into it. There is always some end of world prediction going on and has been for as long as I can remember. The whole 2012 thing comes from the Mayan calendar. Seems they have been keeping calendars and predictions and then suddenly stopped in the year 2012 so people think that is when the world will end. I could be wrong on this...it's what I've heard. I'm not going to get all scared. We should live our lives as if tomorrow might not come anyway. I remember the whole 2000 scare. I did actually think that the computers could crash and cause a lot of problems...end of the world?...never really believed that one. I remember getting out of work at 10pm that night and coming home to ring in the New Year with my daughters who were young at the time. They had a couple of friends over. I brought home snacks and we had the tv on to watch the ball drop. Just as the ball dropped....local fireworks went off. My, then 12 year old, went into hysterics thinking we were being bombed. it was a good laugh. Worrying about the world ending is just a waste of time better spent enjoying it while it lasts.

You are certainly not stupid.. LOL.. I do not believe about this 2012 saga too. To me, it's just going to be another year and the date will just pass by. Perhaps it's going to rain, or shine and etc.. . I know the movie is out, but I'm not going to watch it. I thought of watching it just to catch what it's all about, but my friend had watched already and I don't think I want to..

hi gags sometimes I think little Gissi has us all beat, he only gets upset over little things,here a lot of people are scaring themselves silly over some saying that will in all probability not come true, as for as long as i can remember people have predicted different times for the earth to end, and we are still going strong. so I wish we would all forget the movie and the silly superstitious crap and get back to real life again. I know I am not going to watch the film2012 as I think its just silliness.There are so many better topics to pick now.

Hi Gabs, I think is it so stupid really,I have seen so many discussion about and I just skip it to me that is scare mongering, look no one when it is the end of the whoe if there is and just because this stupin film everyone is going daft about it, what is the matter with people? they are just like sheep following each other over this stupid thing about 2012, well there is something is happening and I am sure of that it the Olympics held here, wheeee heeee!!!. love and hugs.

I don't pay much attention about that too... I don't want to worry and stress myself about that anyway it is only God who can tell when will the World will end really... Year 2012 is very near and I want to spend more time with my baby! No I am not going to entertain that thought! Why will I stress myself anyway???

Okay, you probably have lots of responses, but I will add my voice. December 20, 2012 is the end of a cycle of the Mayan Calendar. They do not claim it is the end of the world but some superstitious folk are making out like they do.

Whelp...heres my theory on the whole thing... I have heard all the earth is ending stories too since as long as i can remember...the date just always gets pushed up some and then we fret and stew for a few more years worrying that the world is ending...then we start at step and and keep doing the whole thing over and over... What i think it that the world is going to come to an end at the wxact precise moment it is supposed to do so and not one second sooner or later and unfortunately for us none of us GETS to know exactly when that is or IF it ever is... you know the earth has been around for billions of years akready....and i have a feeling it is goint to be around for billions more....just maybe not the way we know it right now....but it wasnt always this way before so why shouldnt it change again.... Now something may happen ON earth that wipoes out most or all of humanity but if that does happen why waste time worrying about it or hoarding canned goods and water...i mean we cant prevent it from happening and the odds are you wont live through it so the water wont do you any good and even if you do manage to be the 1 in a million that lives so what is left?? how long can your food and water keep you alive? so to spend time worrying about that now is like wasting the time we have now....because whatever IS going to happen IS going to happen and we have NO comtrol over it!

I think that there is some evil thing within humans that enjoys being terrified. My feeling it that when the world ends it will and there is nothing I can do so why even consider it?

if you are dare enough to keep aside that every thing is going to end by 2012 nd live ur normal life without caring it.then y u think that watching the movie would freak you my friend.may be it has been based on some historical evdences but no ones life is in anybodys hands so u can go ahead nd watch it. I think watching those gore english movies where people kill them selves mercilessly nd cutting off every part of humans is worser when compared to these kind of movies.gdu day.

only God knows when the world ends. just trust God and you will never be afraid. take care..

Don't bother yourself with the myth. Yes, end of the world is true but no one knows when it will be happen. GOD only knows. Don't let them deceive you... For me, those who write the story of that controversial film are the real ignorant. Sorry, but this is just my own opinion. They release that in public and everyone have the right to gives opinion.
