2012

2012

A couple of months back I got a hair up my butt to go visit the towns two pawn shops, to replenish my dwindling DVD collection ( we watch more movies than TV ).  The one had no movies and not even very good guns, and this surprised me as they are the low rent area one, but the other on the main downtown strip had both in abundance.  I must have spent a half hour easy just going through their selection.  In the end I spent $2 apiece for a handful of good post-apocalypse movies.  And then there was the flick “2012”.  Okay, it was a fun movie, and I figured this was a good way to ease the girlfriend into the genre painlessly ( we are also watching the four “Tremors” movies, a jolly fun rollicking time ).  And I didn’t mind watching it again, but it certainly isn’t a good PA movie.  It was good times the whole way, the special effects enjoyable even when we lost the DVD player remote and so I can’t get rid of those annoying top and bottom bars with a universal remote, but at the end I got so agitated at the flamming stupidity of the script I couldn’t help but yell annoyingly to the TV much to the guffawing delight of the significant other.  I mean, the first three quarters plus of the movie was “no way in hell” plausible but at least it was just meant as eye candy.  But the last part was stupid, illogical retarded Movie Message.

The whole movie Oliver Platt’s character is admonishing the chief scientist dude to be realistic and stop being a whinny bitch and grow a pair of testicles.  Stuff like “it is about saving humanity” and “resources are limited”.  At the end, whiney scientist bitch is lecturing all the world leader dudes to act civilized and have compassion and to save as many people as possible, at the last minute, as the big ass waves are rolling in.  They all think, suddenly after all these years, that this is a wonderful idea and tell the American ship captain dude to load up the swarming sea of humanity at the dock.  And the movie ends, as all disaster movies do by rote, as the lone hero saves mankind and the government is portrayed as the savior who helps him.  Those not paid to think these things through like I am might be tempted to take home the following messages:  1) individual rugged he-men save the day magically, 2) centralized governments are the only force capable of saving mankind, and in this movie particularly, 3) Negro’s are the new saviors.  Whiney Black scientist guy, with accompanying super hot Black chick, want to save the downtrodden masses and chide all the old fat White politicians into doing so ( the Prez is Danny Glover but he dies early so we just see him being all wise and compassionate and grandfatherly ).  Not so subtle translation: Obammy is better than me and you because he is Black.  He is perfect because he is Black.  He will save us all, because he is Black.  But this reverse racism isn’t even what began to chap my ass.

The over riding message of this movie was not just that big pappa government was going to save us but that they can be compassionate and save more of us, and resources will still magically be available!  In the movie, the south of Africa was not flooded and was the destination of the ships.  Translation: we let too many people in the ship, with not enough food for them, but we’ll just go farm on a new island and feed everyone.  Did they know about Africa when they decided to overload the ship?  No.  They were being emotional and wanted to do the right instead of the logical thing, acting all female ( something Hollywood preaches incessantly ).  So OF COURSE, with bitches and Blacks in charge, everything works out wonderfully.  I was rooting for the Platt character or the ship captain to order a guard to blast the stupid scientists brains over the bridges wall as he was being a dumbass, but of course in our new world order, big daddy government would never act so harshly or violently ( other than, you know, if the guy were a Constitutionalist or gun owner ).  GOD!!! This movie is insidious and evil, wrapped in a fun filled special effects package.
