2012

'2012' is a perfect disaster



i thought it should be discussed. the movie itself is about the world ending in 2012, just like the aztecs predicted.
everything in the world gets demolished. everything. every grand temple, church, historical monuments, the works. the only thing that is not destroyed though is mecca. you have to wonder why. i wondered why. i looked it up and found that they were afraid of repercussions from the extremist muslim community. deja vu danish comic? except the fact that the danish put it out there, the hollywood producers did not. i understand why they wouldn't do it, but i also have to wonder why not use courage in this? hollywood is known for pushing the envelope as far as possible and now they won't because they don't want to offend muslims? what about those times they offended jews, christians, hindus, etc.? i think that few muslims would be actually prone to retaliation if they see something like mecca coming down during a movie. but i guess it's better to be safe than sorry.
