I have no problem with a Director taking any aspect and making a movie of it. Although I have definite thoughts on this movie, I take care to tell you, it is his right and license to do as he thinks. The movie is his vision, with his research, it was designed as a final biblical authority on this matter. I do not criticize him, but look at the movie itself and its genre. P.S. on this matter, a Directors vision does not make it correct or the truth!
The other night we watched 2012. I would never, well almost never, go out to pay for a movie. We have a cheap seats theatre, but even in those 3.50 dollar a seat movie, we don’t usually go. We rented this movie at redbox. It was 2.5 hours or thereabout of pure unadulterated movie hype. Brought to you by computer tech savvy, green screens, and good acting. It featured a script with a few ideas adapted from the biblical repertoire, and modern prophetic scare tactics. Along with this it wove in its fabric a stellar humanistic theme and Unitarian world view. It added the ‘green theme’, ‘mother earth’ end time adaptation to bring it in union with the directors other endeavors.
