Provide a brief description of the film/program's story plot for our readers 

It is supposed to tell the viewer about what is expected at 2012 but it does not. They can say that it is a possibility but that is not what will happen.

What is your personal opinion of this film/program, as entertainment?  

I saw the preview and I decided not to go see the movie. It is full of action if that is what you are looking for.

What is your personal opinion of this film/program as a social and/or cultural message? Does it succeed or fail in this regard? 

If you go to hopefully see what the future is you will not see it in the movie. It fails in this reguard. I think it wants to continue to feed fear to the public. 2012 itself will bring in a new world into existance, an end to duality, an era of peace and community of oneness for all. I say this because most every one in the world has been asking for a change and this is coming. It has been about 26,000 years since the last major change of this magnatude.

What impact do you feel the movie will likely have on the way people worldwide will perceive the Mayan Calendar? 

I think many people will perceive the the Mayan Calendar as predicting doomsday not what the Mayan Calendar is truly saying, that we are entering a most incredable time a time which many of us have come here to be a part of.

If you had the chance to remake this film/program, what would you do differently? 

I would show it providing the diffierent possibilities and not feeding fear into the public.

Would you recommend this film/program to your family, friends and colleagues? Why or why not? 

I would not recommend this film to my family, friends and colleagues if they are looking to see what will happen in the future. If they are going just for the excitment that is another story and realize it is a fiction story.

What would you like to say to the film's director, and/or the production studio? 

I think you have provided a great action movie but not a movie that tells it like it really is but that probably would not make it a box office hit.

("2012" only) Roland Emmerich is allegedly planning a television series "post 2012". What do you think of this idea? 

I think if he does this it should give an honest and non-fearful approach even though the public wants action.

Any other comments you'd like to add 

Let it tell the truth and not have sensationalism.
