Neil: Absolutely. Not going is a great way to demonstrate your opinion. I don’t intend to go, though I’ll admit that I didn’t intend to go before I saw this.

Stating your opinion is another great way to demonstrate your opinion. Just because it’s entertainment doesn’t mean that he isn’t on the hook for the entertainment that he creates. Calling him out on it is fair game.

While the guy is an IDIOT, it does not mean his movies are NOT “Entertainment” IF you do not like them, DO NOT GO!

Well, the guy is making a popcorn flick designed to be enjoyed with two or three brain cells. I probably wouldn’t go there either, judging from past ridiculous outbursts from the “Muslim street.” I guess it’s cowardice, but the guy isn’t making Saving Private Ryan or 1984. Why invite controversy of any kind?

His movies are terrible though, so there’s not a lot of draw there for me.

I kinda zoned out of all of his movies ever since Independence Day.

Kinda sad when you’re like…7 or so years old and had more common sense than the military/government portrayed in the movie ~_~

The dimmest undergraduate’ thoughts I ever read in the worst paper he ever wrote were expressed more coherently than Emmerich’s rambling.

Uh…the…uh..it’s like, ironic, like…or…uh.

C’moon Balcktail………..the guy’s a purveyer of poorly thought out, and executed popular entertainment (think 10,000 BC) NOT; a hard hitting, truth telling, saviour of humanity (think Michael Moore , or Al Gore). LOL!

I think I’m going to give 2012 a pass……..I hate disaster movies, and this one looked worse than most in the trailer. Nice of the backers and producers to geek up all the excitable children who’re into the 2012, end of the world, Nostrodamus BS though.

So, a western movie depicting the destruction of the entire world, based upon interpretations of the Mayan calender, WON’T visually the destruction of a landmark in Saudi Arabia — even though we KNOW it happens?

Sounds like physical AND moral cowardice to me.
