2012 (2009) MOVIE REACTION - THIS WAS NONSTOP THRILLS! - FIRST TIME WATCHING - REVIEW
Embed
- Published on Mar 13, 2026
- Welcome to our first-time watching as we react to 2012 (2009).
Directed by Roland Emmerich, this film takes us on a wild ride through an apocalyptic world where earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions threaten to wipe out humanity.
We've got to say we were absolutely mesmerized by the VFX work done in this film.
2012 is a 2009 American epic science fiction disaster film directed by Roland Emmerich, written by Emmerich and Harald Kloser, and stars John Cusack, Amanda Peet, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Oliver Platt, Thandiwe Newton, Danny Glover and Woody Harrelson. Based on the 2012 phenomenon, its plot follows geologist Adrian Helmsley (Ejiofor) and novelist Jackson Curtis (Cusack) as they struggle to survive an eschatological sequence of events including earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, megatsunamis, and a global flood.
We hope that you enjoy our reactions, commentary and review as we discuss the film's mind-blowing special effects, intense action scenes, and nail-biting moments of survival that has us rooting for the family as they attempted to overcome each challenge.

Can you please make a reaction to this movie? War of the Worlds Goliath.
@24:20 That’s the Great Value brand Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnie was Governor of California when this came out.
Have y'all considered reacting to things like anime?
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! a few of us wanted you to see this !
so glad you guys watched this. Such an underrated film. A great follow up that also has Jon Cusack in it is Con Air with Nic Cage, and i swear to GOD!, if you don't watch Con Air, well.....then......erm...there's not really much i can do about it....but....just...trust me. Con Air, Face Off, The Rock, Armageddon, and Independence Day. in no particular order. these films have a vibe back then that i feel this flick managed to capture years later that hadn't been seen since those other flicks. and i really miss it. its like a Jerry Bruckheimer feel to the films even if they aren't Bruckheimer films. so you gotta check em out, or else......um....well, or else nothing. just trust me. i'd never steer you wrong. you guys are awesome
I remember I met my now wife at the end of 2012. Started to fall in love and was finally happy, only to be told “oh yeah, the world is ending this year.” I said “yeah, that does sound like my luck”
man idk u or your wife, but i hope u both have a great day cuz i laughed so hard in public over this comment.
@dya-in1997 thanks man. I appreciate it. You have a good day too
Well that year I had the same luck😂
I still remember going home from school looking up at the sky to wait and see if there was a big tsunami approaching. The best natural disaster film for me.
I was working at a pawnshop in Sydney that day and contemplating my slightly-toasted life haha
I remember people actually being paranoid and worried about the end being near, so many conspiracies and theories were being thrown around. Yet we're still here, paying bills and working and s*** 😂
@OfficialMediaKnights Exactly. It was also the same with Y2K funnily enough.
@OfficialMediaKnights Was just thinking back then what better way to go out during holiday season where everything is bright and happy
Well I am from eastern India where it happened nothing in 12/12/12 like everyone said the World's gonna end. After few months later 2013 a minor earthquake around 5.5 did happened near my state. So me and my friends got really scary thinking this is it. 😂
Its funny how people actually thought that when 2012 happened the world was going to end.
We remember those times vividly ahah, the good old days 😂
Haha I remember crying 😂
And nothing happened lol
They believe it becausevof MAYA prophecy...that was the first time the prophecy doesnot work ...that why we all believed that
I half part mayan i for all that year a Lot of ⚪ people came and trying to "apologize". Like were in in the Vatican and some sht, plus they were missunderdanteing the priphecy (like they usually do with our myts)
Imagine the astrunauts in space. They just chilling while the entire world and all they know just disappears.
I've always said this lol it would be crazy
But also they are sentenced to death essentially right? I mean nasa is essentially gone. How we gonna get them. lol
A missed opportunity of a scene they could've shot. NASA speaking to them 4 the last time. Maybe they did shoot something but being pressed 4 time, they had 2 cut it. I can't imagine the fear because after communication was lost, they'd believe they're stuck up there in space with no way of returning back to Earth & figuring out their survival in their new life essentially.
I mean they would die in maximum a few weeks or months@jasminejames1090
There is a good chance the astrunauts die with the rest of us in this szenario.
Imagine two Mayans back then talking. "Hey, I invented a new calendar that will last for many many centuries" "Only for centuries? What happens if the calendar ends? People could panic!" "Nah, people are smarter than that. They simply start the calendar again, don't worry"
Reminds me of a comic
“I only had enough room to reach 2012”
“Ha, that’ll freak someone out someday.”
@johnnyrocket1685 2500 years? So my estimate was correct. Many Centuries LOL
@johnnyrocket1685yet I'm sure you pronounce "2,500" as "twenty-five hundred" and not "two thousand five hundred"
And twenty-five hundred is 25x100, which means, if we're talking in years, many centuries, not millenia
Silly goose.
no. the mayan calendar supposed be have a new one its not end in 2012, i see the interview with those tribe people, but the film maker and producer purposed li left that part out to hype the movie
@johnnyrocket1685 yes and in linguistics words are defined by how people uses them.
And the term "many" is quite vague and open to interpretation, sorry but I don't think 2 millenia is many, it's multiple yes, but not many, 9 millenia is many tho
So when I'm talking about 2.5k years I'd rather say it's many centuries than many millenia if I had to pick between the two
Also, your little bit about english language doesn't affect me at all, it's my second language and I wasn't born in an english-speaking country so you know.
The graphics are amazing for a 2009 movie. The disasters look so realistic, we can even tell our kids we survived this..
it's insane how the simulation still holds up , that's how you sell your CGI effects , cinematography , lighting and know when to use it
Totally agree, the effects look fantastic, and combined with the insane sound design this was a blast to watch!
We will soon
Looks way better that many movies from the last 10 years
2009 wasnt so long ago, u act like it was from the 80's lol
Also, I love John Cusack, but Gordon didn't deserve that ending just for the sake of Jackson's family coming together. He genuinely loved the wife and the kids and was helping a lot in all this disaster.
Tamara's death was also pretty pointless
They forget about Gordon quick too. Lol. Bro was a huge reason they made it too.
the sooner you realize the ‘divorced dad’ stories are almost always written by someone who is bitter and divorced, the funnier that troupe becomes. it’s like comedians casting an extremely conventionally attractive love interest in a romcom that stars them
@MacCheekz1990 Yes, I mean she "at least" was a cheater for the guy she was dating (for money), but I guess there were multiple characters in the movie that needed to have some kind of redemption...
@pillowvibes yes. I mean in many stories the replacement dads are bad guys or idiots where it's questionable why the woman chose a guy like that, where the writers puts their perception into the replacement, but even when Gordon was a bit bitter the more they were getting together as a family, he really was a good guy and a good new dad, only dreaming about a new family, he didn't even steal the wife, simply met he later as I understood... He could've simply give up at the end and not die the most brutal death in the movie u_u
Fun fact: They were gonna make a spin-off series about how they rebuilt society after all this. It got cancelled unfortunately. I would’ve loved to see the aftermath.
Yeah, imagine all the political chaos in Africa. It would serve as a show on HBO or something like that.
A novel would be great
The shot of LA sliding into the ocean is insane - I still remember the reaction in the theater.
I like to imagine the Mayan in charge of the calendar being like “Oh, we’re out of space on our calendar… well maybe we can let it that way, I don’t think it’ll be a big deal, they can make a new one when this one ends…”, then all of humanity freaking out years later because of this😂😂
Well, it wasn't a thing about "making a new one"; it was more like "after this date, return to the beginning of the whole thing, it's common sense"... Centuries later: "Common sense says it means the end of the world!!!" :P.
It didn't help mayan writings were not understood until their glyphs were partially decoded around the decade of 1960 (even today, some existing glyphs and texts have not been fully decoded).
"we get to see the full scale of HOLY SHIT....." i'm willing to bet that's exactly what Roland Emmerich was shooting for.
My dad is friends with one the of special effects engineers on this film and she put her and her husbands initials on the Vatican when it was destroyed for a millisecond
Very cool.
I graduated high school in early 2012, and we were called "The Graduates of the Apocalypse". It was quite the interesting year growing up. XD
My friends and I watched this film after the event, and we often joked "if, or when, we have kids, we'll show them this film and tell them we survived this".
2012 grad here. You're not alone! 🤣🤣
I graduated in 2020... the year it genuinely felt like the apocalypse was occurring. Do I get included in the "Graduates of the Apocalypse" crew?
Our graduating class hoodies and stuff had the words “becomes it’s not the end of the world, class of 2013”😆
5:41 G8 summit I was one of the protestors.
42:30 I was also killed in the sandstorm in Vegas.
47:25 I died when the Vatican collapsed.
I was paid for the New York Time Square scene but not used.
1:12:11 final scene...I survived.
That's continuity in movies for you.
wow nice!
The only guy in the comments i've seen that can say "I survived all of this" and not entirely wrong.
Bro has teleportation powers
1:10:49 - the most unrealistic thing about this movie is that American film makers went with the DD/MM/YYYY format 😂
'We're Not Gonna Make a Baby in the Supermarket!".... I would have responded "Why do you think they have a Produce Section?" ..... Ha, I Kill Me!
This is brilliant 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Okay Crow T Robot
You know there was actually a deleted/alternative ending of this movie, where it turned out that Harry and the whole ship managed to survive!
-And in the same alternate that creep Anhauser got his welldeserved punch in the face!
To me that’s the true ending.
I was just wondering why they didn’t show that part. That’s the original ending I saw.
That alt ending should have stayed in. It would show that any boat at sea had a chance... not a GOOD chance, but a chance. If the cruise liner had turned into the wave they would have been fine. Wet... but fine.
What, that's the first time I've heard of it. Now I have to look for it
whenever is see woody harelson i immediately think of the interview when he realised liam and chris hemsworth were brothers, you can see in real time when it just clicks in his mind.
24:33 The way he yelled killed me! 😂
her gasp at 48:43 gave me chills, one of my favorite scenes in the entire movie.... that isn't a horror movie. but the sheer hopelessness of the situation creeped me tf out
I remember hearing people sniffling and crying when I watched this in the cinema because as you guys said, it's during the time the world was supposed to be ending. This was a fun movie and nostalgic one at that.
Oh we can only imagine, there were many heartfelt moments in this that hit us right in the feels!
"Also love the wider shots they're giving us 'cause we get to see the entirety, like the full scale of HOLY SH*T!" - a perfect summary of the film😂
Don’t Look Up (2021) is also an EXCELLENT satirical disaster film about how the world would react to an incoming apocalypse
Man I remember watching this movie when I was like 6 and started crying because I thought this was really gonna happen 😭😭
Nowadays this is still one of my fav disaster movies
The yellowstone scene is one of my favourite diaster movie moments. Was just so epic.
I've got goosebumps, people!
1:03:07 and 1:06:51 The reason the tsunami was able to breach the Himalayas was because the land itself is plummeting into the ocean rather than the ocean swooping across the mountains. Remember the earths crust is destabilizing rapidly and entire indochina plate is sliding into the ocean.
Oh and in a deleted scene, the cruise ship and everyone one board survived 😊
If the scene is deleted, then it is not canon. 😁
But how could they survive?
@kateofone The film clearly throws a lot of average logic and physics out of the window (and that scene would play as "if you didn't see it happen, it didn't happen" XD). But, in a general sense, a capsized ship still has buoyancy; if the wave carried on its front end, rather than pushing it down and flooding it, the ship, and people in it, can survive such conditions for a relative short period of time.
I love the destruction-fest the film is, but yeah... removing scenes like that of the ship and offing characters for shock value while not giving much of a consequence to the "we sold tickets to rich people and kicked out people who helped us design this plan" gives the film and overall grim sense that this new beginning of humanity is doomed XD.
If they had left the ship scene, that would mean that humanity survived, in unplanned ways, in spite this elitist, almost eugenic, plan making up for the lack of vision, and greed, of politicians. But the scene was cut and the plot is stuck with what it shows.
@kateofone Especially those shown literally flying out of the ship.
"The World as we know it, will soon come to an end ". Such an Awesome disaster movie
This was so much fun!
@OfficialMediaKnights yall need to watch 2020 Greenland starring Gerard Butler Surprisingly good as well same concept
@ we did! haha
Just realized the little girl plays the child mystique in X-men first class.
Now y'all need to hit Dante's Peak for the disaster film marathon, and Midway for the Emmerich roller coaster!
The part where they all pile up in the Bentley, I think to myself that Yuri thinks "I paid for it, I'm going to ride in it at least ONCE!" 😂😂
You guys really need to watch "Greenland" with Gerald Butler.
Yes! I was about to comment this too. Such a great disaster film 🎥
You two are always the best with reactions. I'm glad I found you two. Your the best on youtube much love ❤️
Aww man! Thank you, truly. It means so much to us seeing you enjoy these. You guys make our day ❤️
Yup. These guys are the best by faaaaaar! ✌🏻
@OfficialMediaKnightsYou should react to San Andreas
@OfficialMediaKnightsI wouldn't pay 1 billion euros to save my cheating girlfriend. The Russian guy wasn't wrong
@OfficialMediaKnights
crazy fact of yellowstone it’s suppose to be equivalent of 250 B-83 nuclear bombs 🌋
56:45 I watched this in theaters and let me tell you when everyone in the audience realized that he hadn’t gotten safe passage they were pissed
I love when I randomly think of a movie and type it in and see you guys have already reacted to it. Makes my day
2012 was my favorite movie when I was five years old because I always watched it with my dad and it still holds a special place in my heart
Exactly
about the Antonov plane, it was the longest plane in the world , the Antonov An-225 Mriya was destroy in ukraine on the russian invasion ...
They are planning to build/restore the plane. Hopefully we will see this mighty bird in the sky again.
For a bit more context it was the heaviest and had the largest wingspan and was destroyed by a Russian airstrike.
@TheToohey10 Lol
Woody Harrelson has been a vegan for thirty years. It was his idea that Charlie would be munching on pickles as a vegan-friendly snack.
His dad is also on the top 5 for those who may have shot Kennedy.
Ah no wonder, what only veggies do to you
@potterj09 what's funny and ironic is that in 2017, Woody played the lead role of Lyndon B. Johnson in LBJ, a movie about Johnson's transition to the presidency following J.F. Kennedy's murder. And of course, it has been suspected Johnson may have been involved
The hardest part of being a vegan is keeping it to yourself.
@christopherlane5238 What is he supposed to lie? Not like hes making commercials and such promoting it. I only hear about him being vegan through comments like these. Seems other people bring it up more than himself.
YESSS! Saw this in theaters and it was so amazing. The score is top tier and the shots are breathtaking.
Couldn't agree more! The visuals were fantastic. And the action sequences had us at the edge of our seats.
I really liked the line "we are so helpless in the face of nature" because it is so true. We think so are all that until something happens
I can’t believe it’s been 12 years since we all survived this.
It was such a hair raising time. I finally made it on the ark. Glad all is better now 😂
i use to say that if i were to have kids, i would let them watch this and tell them at the same time that i survived this lmaoo
Good one! I'm gonna use that...😂😂😂
I suggest you watch Knowing (2009), starring Nic Cage and Ben Mendelson. It's not as bombastic as this one, instead it adds mystery element to keep you engaged.
I love disaster movies so much! I watched this one in the cinema and it was so much fun. Sadly, these types of movies are underrated and hated often because people just overthink things too much. Disaster movies are to have fun with and maybe to find some enlightenment at times but people take them too seriously instead of just having fun with them! Hope you guys react to San Andreas. It makes no sense but it's fun 😂😂
Collision Earth is fun. Quantum Apocalypse is also fun. There about on level with Armageddon, but I love “dumb” disaster flicks.
36:30 - imagine if they just killed all of them off at this point and started focusing on a whole new crew 😂
15 yrs ago, and this is still a movie I look forward to at least once a year. Thanks guys
When Time Ran Out...,The Towering Inferno, and Earthquake. These quintessential disaster movies of the mid 70's-1980's should be on your list to see how everything has changed 40 to 50 some odd yrs ago in film making.
Totally agree
Agreed! When I'm sick, disaster movies, grilled cheese and tomato soup are my go tos
And The Poseidon Adventure, too. Towering Inferno is one of my very favourite movies.
@johnmckinney5809 I think When Time Ran Out is underrated in the 70s disaster movies. It's a great cast and very dramatic. More oriented on the people than mass scale devastation.
@misabissett2000 well, hopefully they'll go back into the movie vault and check out these classics.
2012 was one of my favorite disaster movie, i had the chance to watch this movie in theaters, one of the craziest experience.. everybody was scared after watching this and it haunts people for months because how real they made it, will never forget those times..oh and the vfx still amazing to this day
I love the sound FX in this film.
The poles have flipped hundreds of times in Earth's history, but doesn't happen overnight.
Well, technically it would happen overnight - but the lead up to it probably takes years or decades (or even more, since we don't actually know for sure yet).
1:04:20 there’s actually a deleted scene from this moment of Adrian punching him
I hate that they deleted it!
He definitely would’ve deserved that
I remember watching the deleted scenes on DVD and when I first saw the scene Adrian punched him in the face, I was so happy but mad they deleted it. Still the best deleted scene I've seen
I was walking to school during the big 1964 earthquake in Seattle as a kid. I remember crossing the playfield and suddenly seeing the ground forming into waves that bounced me around for several minutes, hearing breaking stone and glass, punctuated by screams and one adult voice, presumably yelling at me, to stay down; that I was safer outside. And both the visual of the ground undulating, and the roaring rumble of thousand of tons of earth, grinding against each other, is very accurate. It was like the deafening roar of jet planes, yet slightly muffled from being in the ground under your feet, instead of overhead.
i saw this in theaters when it released. it was wild to see some of these images on a big screen. the tsunami wiping out dc in the dark was one of the most terrifying visuals to see.
Just FYI, while I love this movie, the bits about the neutrinos are wildly inaccurate:
Particles don’t ‘mutate’. They don’t have DNA.
Neutrinos CAN physically interact with regular matter, they just don’t normally do it often which is why our neutrino detectors are so large.
If there were enough neutrino reactions happening to overheat the Earth’s core to the point of a total resurfacing of the planet, our atmosphere would likely have been stripped off in the process. Not to mention the event could very likely disrupt the rotation the Earth’s dynamo, changing or deleting our magnetosphere.
When a star ‘explodes’ in a supernova, much of what pushes the star’s guts out into space is a massive burst of neutrinos. Think about that!
Cheers guys!
Space is such a fascinating thing. We know just enough. So much more to learn! The scenario of neutrinos stripping our atmosphere somehow sounds even worse!
I remember that my friend and I started laughing out loud when he said that neutrinos were mutating, like wtf, they couldn't come up with something just a bit plausible 😂😂😂
There's a lot of things with this movie that are wildy inaccurate. Just have to enjoy the ride :)
Everything about this movie is wildly inaccurate and utterly preposterous. I love it! If you wanted a movie to demonstrate the meaning of "suspension of disbelief" this would be it. In one sense the mutation of neutrinos is not the worst example - since they can oscillate between different forms. Agreed - this is not mutation in the DNA sense but the word mutation can be used to describe the phenomenon. And yes - sufficient neutrinos to heat the core would strip the atmosphere and all life pretty quickly. It is not impossible despite the very rare interacctions. Neutrinos carry 99% of the energy of a supernova and production is increased by a huge factor. Neutrinos from a supernova within a few light years would destroy us. This may be before the accompnying electromagnetic radiation finishes the job. Althought they travel (just) slower than light in a vaccuum they can get here first as they are not as impeded by matter.
Oh, thats by far not the only inaccuracy of this movie. I hated it when it came out, I appreciate it by now and even rewatched it with friends who hadnt seen it before... but its still kind of a guilty pleasure for me.
What still pisses me off every time is how the producers killed off the russian woman. She's in a compartment with closed bulkheads but the water still rises making her drown. To avoid that is the reason to built in seperate compartments with bulkheads. And those compartments were undamaged, the reason of the water coming in is the open gate at the back. OK, I see why the producers wanted to kill off that character, but there were countless better occasions to do that.
Deep Impact with Elijah Wood.
Great reaction. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻⚡🥃
I love how the government guy at the start you were worried would ignore everything like in Day After Tomorrow, but when he was on board immediately you liked him. Then over the course of the movie you grow to dislike him from his actions.
Then the Russian billionaire you start off not really liking with how selfish he is, but in the end gives up his life for his kids.
Some great character development in this movie. I remember liking it, but I think it got dunked on when it first came out, though I think that happens with a lot of doomsday movies. That then later get recognized as fun movies.
One fact about this movie but not a fun one is that the stunt at 34:18 seriously injured the stunt driver. When the camera stopped rolling he fell out the vehicle and had to be sent to the hospital. Luckily he recovered.
25:20 The timing of "that the worst is over." and then the San Andreas fault line saying "I'm end this man's whole career" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
If you two didn't know, the earthquake triggered the San Andreas fault and both 'wiped LA off the map'. The scene showing those chunks of what used to be part of LA sinking into the water was what I call 'falling into the ocean'. Anyway, I'm happy you two reacted to this! 2012 is my favorite disaster movie where you can just relax and enjoy the destruction that had no science or logic in it most of the time. It's amazingly inacriate and I love that. I personally see the destruction of LA scene as the most action-packed for several reasons lol
Un terremoto de 10.5 es posible. . . . El nivel de daño seria exagerado. . .
Poseidon Adventure is a must Towering Inferno. Both massive 70s movies and I loved them as a kid. Love u guys too. Love from the UK
2012 is one of the last great Disaster movies in 20 years.
Greenland (and getting a sequel), San Andreas. Both (in my opinion) really good disaster movies - and way, way more plausible than this one at least :D
@nebraskabecause lmao good one
@nebraskabecause you just had to ruin the good vibe here with your hate.
I wish they ended up making the sequel
Thought The Wave (2015) and The Quake (2018), both Norwegian films, were pretty good. Not nearly effects driven as Hollywood movies, but good enough to not kill the movie.
The Burning Sea (2021) is a spiritual successor, third movie to complete the trilogy. I haven't seen it yet to know if it's any good, but has around same approval ratings on IMDB.
In 48:34 the two bratty twins were on that ship and I just noticed 😂
Lol
Little fact: The tunnel where the man talking on the phone and gets blown up. Same man who was putting away the Mona Lisa. Same tunnel and exact spot Princess Diana was killed in.
Not-so-fun-facts: One, scientists have stated that the eruption of the Yellowstone caldera as depicted in this movie is far more optimistic than it would be in reality (it's estimated that an actual eruption today would be a thousand times worse than the movie shows).
Two, considering Yellowstone went in the movie, there's a very real chance that other supervolcanoes did as well. Namely, Campi Phlegrei (the Phlegraean Fields of Italy), which are located not too far from Vesuvius and lie *directly under the city of Naples.*
If Yellowstone actually errupted it would probably be the end of the US as we know it. The state of Wyoming would just be gone and the ash cloud would eventually cover most if not all states.
Thankfully it's less likely than we thought @MrHillBilly-j7f
@MrHillBilly-j7f the entirety of north america
@muffinssupreme84 Around 2000 cubic kilometers of ash, dirt and lava.
@MrHillBilly-j7f you can edit probably out of there and trade it for guarenteed
I think the idea is that the mantle became more liquid breaking up the continental crust plates as they sank into it. That leveled the land out out more with the oceanic plates and sea floors. And the big under sea trenches probably sealed up and sank into the mantle, even while the seafloor rose. The tectonic plates are like the skim on the surface of simmering gravy, and that scenario seems most plausible if you raise the heat.
For more disaster movie recommendations I'd suggest Twister and Geostorm is underrated.
They already watched Twister and Twisters, my dude.
@oh7henry cool. Still have Geostorm to watch. Just don't mention sharknado and we'll be fine 😂
Loved Geostorm. Twister was also good.
@britishrose5308 I have seen sharknado, and still have no idea what the heck they were smoking when they thought of making that film.
In an alternate ending, the cruise ship got caught in a rock. Adrian’s dad and Tony did survive the wreckage
I think the tunnel where the car blew up is the same one where Princess Diana passed away.
Don't know if anyone else has seen the alternate ending. The arks come across the cruise ship that didn't survive in the original. In the alternate ending, the cruise ship survived.
Oh they’re gonna land in the water? What’s the plan after that?
Swimming 😂😂😂
I remember the “end of the world” in 2012 😅 glad it didn’t all end back then! Another great disaster movie to react to would be San Andreas with the rock about the San Andreas fault in California
I love how Charlie was practically in love with the idea of staying for the eruption, but he still urged Jackson to take the kids and run.
Great special effects and disasters raining down!!!
this NEEDS to be a game, it would be SICK driving through all that destruction and hopping on a plane to escape in a game!
Great film. Glad you guys finally got around to reacting to this film. It's a great representation of how human society will react once everything goes to hell in hand basket. The rich and powerful will be saved while the rest of humanity is left to perish and witness the end of human civilization. I love how they incorporate the San Andreas Fault and the Yellowstone Caldera. Two very real and very serious dangerous that people aren't asking IF they'll go off.... BUT WHEN!
"Get back with the other green cards or I'll have you detained."
Since the only place to detain me is on the Ark... okay, yes please.😂
What makes you think that?
Aye my favourite Dr Charles was in this Movie!?... i completely realize it just Now after watching this video today
26:38 you'd be a great drive to if you had plot armor
Yes
I've always liked this movie as a bit of a guilty pleasure because it's so outlandish, but hearing you 2 break it down at the end made me start to think it's actually just a solid and fun movie.
Love the energy you both have, I look forward to binging your videos in the very near future!
I actually went to see this movie in the theater when I was in middle school. One of the best experiences I've had at a movie theater. I can't believe how well the special effects and CGI have held up.
You guys
need to watch battleship
Adding it to our list, thank you so much for the recommendation!
The guy on the tv talking about the 2012 end of time idea the people of ancient Central American held.
He kind reminded me of the dad from day after tomorrow and the actor who play the dad in modern family series….
It’s so weird to see the Yellowstone scenes and recognize terrain around my hometown,
Actually technically Antonov isn't Russian but Ukrainian but the founder started the company in Russia in Novosibirsk in 1946 . And yes the biggest plane is the Antonov-225.
Antonov was a Soviet, ethnic Russian designer. Ukraine inherited the company after the fall of USSR and they destroyed the plane to avoid let it be captured by the Russian paratroopers. Ukrainian propaganda is hilarious.
Was...it's been destroyed in the war.
@Stratigozokay a few fact checks
1. The Antonov Serial Production Plant where the plane was built
Is located in Kyiv Ukraine, and the government of the Ukrainian SSR is credited alongside the Soviet Union as the commissioners
meaning the plane was built in Ukraine, under the Ukrainian Soviet representatives,
and thus is ethnically Ukrainian by every metric.
2. The plane was hit by a Russian air-Strike which is the official record
Here I've got a job exam after two days...and I'm watching this in the middle of the night. 😂 Btw, I've just discovered your channel and I enjoyed your reactions and discussions. Love from India.❣️🇮🇳
1:04:23 there's a deleted alternate take on this scene where Helmsley does actually punch out Anheuser.
1:04:48 probably around five point an ungodly number of kilonewtons (per square centimetre)
i woud give knowing a try it got some grwa disaster scenes too and a interesting story
In highschool in 2018 Anchorage Alaska got hit with a 7.1 and it was so scary I can’t imagine something over a 9 wild
This is one of my all time favourite disaster movies.
A great "End of the World" movie you need to watch, that's little known and underrated is 'Knowing' staring Nicholas Cage.
The Core! One of the best end of times films.
Yall should watch knowing staring Nicolas Cage
I remember 2012 so well, just like you guys - i was a teen and it was strangely on everyone's mind
The funny thing is, the Myan Callender only predicted the end of an Age of time. Not the end of the world. Everyone just took it as the end of the world.
This was a great movie.
There's talk about a pole shift/flip in our future so who knows what sort of shenanigans that will cause.
Either that, or they said “hey, we’ve made enough calendars for the next 600 years. I think we can stop now.”
Antonov (An-225) WAS the biggest plane in the world... Made in Ukraine, but only one was built... and it was hit in a Russian strike near the start of the war.
Makes sense, big target. But that sucks, thing is a marvel, would be cool to see it be rebuilt
Not really true. It was made during Soviet Union by Antonov design bureau by a lead designer who was Russian. Its soviet russian plane inherited by Ukraine. Made in Ukraine only, everything else about it is russian.
Only one completed there's a second fuselage if I remember right
@Stockfish1511 "Soviet Union" was not a country.
The plane was made in Ukraine, by Ukrainian hands, Ukrainian equipment and by a Ukrainian Company... but correct, the designer was a Russian who moved to Ukraine during the Soviet Union.
@babalonkie The plane was built by a Russian (Oleg Konstantinovich Antonov) and only left behind and passed on Ukraine after the fall of USSR like many things including nukes and a vast military arsenal. And the plane destroyed by Ukrainians to avoid get captured by the Russian paras. Liar motherf*cker lol.
They did my man Gordon dirty.
I'm a senior person, so it was great fun watching this movie w/you guys. Thanks
53:06 he should have quickly gottten up from here and run back out of the plane like don't wait to find out if the plane Will fall or not
the detail of the land masses shifting thousands of miles is quite literally the shifting point of the movie.
i’m not a physicist but i’d assume the sudden MASSIVE shifts and earthquakes caused for entire countries to be submerged, which was why (i’d assume) the water level reached near the top of mount everest
Denise, it is simple displacement. The amount of land on the continents that basically fell into the ocean displaced all that water. It's like, when you fill the bathtub too high, and then you get in, and the tub overflows. Same principle.
"get your watch back"😂
You loot goblins.
AHAHAHAHAHAH the compulsion to loot cannot be stopped 😂😂😂
Watching that film in the cinema mindblowing
