I feel about Roland Emmerich the same way I feel about Michael Bay. Really good at spectical, but horrible at story.

I know your blog is 'Go Into The Story,' but how would you feel about guys like Emmerich and Bay making films sans the story?

Cut out all the "Who will say I love you first" scenes from Transformers 2 and just let giant robots fist fight. Remove the scientist and his old flame the reporter getting back together and just let Godzilla wreck New York.

Though during The Day After Tomorrow, my friend and I came up with a whole side story about the wolves who escaped from the Central Park Zoo. Up to the point where a helicopter flown by other wolves show up to rescue them. If you're listening Emmerich, call me and we can beat out that story.

Spot on annalysis, Steve. "... good at specticle, but horrible at story." EASY arguements to make given "Transformers II," "The Day After Tomorrow", and "10,000 B.C." (Rolan Emmerich), which I thought was especially dreadful, despite some REAL potential.

To me, just from being forced to watch the trailer, "2012" looks A LOT like "The Day After Tomorrow." Once again good bridge, Steve. Don't know for sure their is a crappy story behind this movie, but it sure looks that way.

Rolan Emmrick and Michael Bay NEED some solid mateial. They NEED the spec. market. Pair up with some hot shot with a story that's lightening in a bottle, and THEN let them tinker with it and fuse in what they well. Need someone with such a story...

"O where, o where could it be?"

"Indians of the Ancient Plains" by yours truly. Gimme a ring-a-ling boyz, and let the kid from Bonney Lake show you what he's got in his bag...

Thanks for sharing this trailer. It was hilarious!

I read the script many months back. It has plot holes so big you can drive a mountain through them. Seriously, it was a complete and utter disaster.

That video, on the other hand, was brilliant.

If anyone's curious about the tasty retro music used in this hilarious mock trailer, it's by the Incredible Bongo Band from the early 1970s. Mmm mmm, love me some bongos.

Dang, Emmerich should recut and re-score the whole movie to reflect the sensabilities of this brilliant spoof trailer!

They'd have my $10 fer sure!

I'm curious how a rapture can be avoided by hopping aboard space ships and leaving Earth. Maybe God's like Rosco P. Coltrane, if you flee his planetary jurisdiction he just sits there twisting his hat going "A geee geee geee!"

Steve - two words: "Chapter stops". It's the only way my friend.

That was a thing of beauty.

This video won't be taken down -- it's a transformative work, which is under protection by the Fair Use doctrine.

And it's funny.

Here's another video that's similar in nature; Buffy vs. Edward Cullen (of Twilight).

EC, I'm pretty sure they're not going to go with anyone who can't even spell their names correctly.

Stop being so desperate and creepy. It's not getting you anywhere. Sorry, but somebody had to say it.
