]]> Josh Horowitz over at MTV Movies sat down with John Cusack and Amanda Peet to talk about their upcoming disaster film, "2012." I’m with Peet, who says, “I love ‘Day After Tomorrow,’ but I didn’t watch them when I was younger because I was too scared.”

But I’m definitely going to catch “2012,” in theaters this Friday, Nov. 13, 2009. Directed by Roland Emmerich, the movie also stars Thandie Newton and Woody Harrelson. Check out a 5-minute clip of the film here. There’s some major computer generated effects in this one.

]]> It may have been a disaster on the screen, but the stars shone brightly at the premiere of “2012.” 

Roland Emmerich’s tragi-film centers on a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world as we know it — seriously, check out the trailer. I also have a great 5-minute clip with John Cusack front and center.

Until the Nov. 13 release date, here are a few premiere pictures of Cusack, Thandie Newton, Woody Harrelson, Danny Glover, Gilmore Girls’ Lauren Graham, and Chin Han (read my “Dark Knight” interview with him).

Also present was Adam Lambert, who sang one of the movie’s tunes, “Time for Miracles.” Watch the video of that on Idol Stalker!

]]> Here’s a nice long clip from director Roland Emmerich’s “2012,” set for a Nov. 13, 2009 release. All the trailers have looked pretty darn intense, so intense that you almost have to laugh at the craziness of it all. I’m not really a disaster movie kind of girl, but after seeing the trailers and clip below, I’m going to have to check this one out.

The cast includes John Cusack, Thandie Newton, Woody Harrelson, Amanda Pete, Danny Glover, and George Segal, to name a few. The story centers on a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world as we know it, and the heroic struggle of the survivors left behind. I just want to know where they end up landing the plane.

]]> I posted the trailer for “2012” a couple of days ago, and here’s a new TV spot for Roland Emmerich’s disaster movie, coming to theaters Nov. 13, 2009.

This is one of those creepy, story-within-a-story trailers that makes you think this could actually happen. Like the first time you read Shirley Jackson’s short story “The Lottery” in school. You just couldn’t believe that something like that could actually happen. WILL it happen, is the question…

It creeps me out to even visit the “Institute for Human Continuity” Web site and see the words “Register Now for Survival Lottery.” It seems too real. Clearly, I’ve been watching too many sci-fi movies. What about you? Do these sorts of things creep you out?

]]> Director Roland Emmerich’s “2012” is set for a Nov. 13, 2009 release, and the trailer below looks pretty intense. The disaster movie to end all disaster movies.

The cast is impressive, too: John Cusack, Thandie Newton, Woody Harrelson, Amanda Pete, Danny Glover, and George Segal, to name a few. The story centers on a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world as we know it, and the heroic struggle of the survivors left behind. See what you think of the trailer:

]]> Talk about intense! The new teaser trailer for Roland Emmerich’s “2012″ is frightening! Take “The Day After Tomorrow” and magnify it about 100 times. Holy crap. What do you think?
