2012: Politically Correct Apocalypse
Statue of Christ the Redeemer Crumbles
The Kabaa Remains Intact
In Roland Emmerich’s latest film, you will see the destruction of St. Peter’s Cathedral, the Vatican, Notre Dame, and Westminster Abby.
You’ll also see the collapse of the White House, the Capitol, Big Ben, and the House of Representatives.
But 2012,the new film which purports the show the end of world, does not contain any scenes of Saudis being swallowed up by desert storms or Dubai being sucked into a sea of oil.
Yes, all the great structures of Western civiliation and Christianity will be swept away but the monuments of Islam will remain.
The filmmakers admit that they were afraid to depict the destruction of Mecca and the Kaaba for fear of Islamic retaliation.
Emmerich, who is well known for decimating famed landmarks in his The Day After Tomorrow and Independence Day, said that that he had no qualms about destruction of the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro because he is "against organised religion."
But remained fearful of depicting anything that must offend the religious sensibilities of Muslims.
The 53-year-old Emmerich admitted that the original screenplay called for a sequence in which the Kaaba disintegrates to dust but realized that such a scene could result in the end of his professional career, if not his demise.

I can’t wait for this to made fun of in South Park.
What a coward. Pick on Christians, women, children, the handicapped, the elderly . . . anyone who can’t fight back.
Don’t forget the animals too.
What a real man you are Roland. Congrats on the career move, it’s all worth it I’m sure.
Another reason I am skipping 2012. Just look at the cast. It is straight out of Hollywood Moonbat central.
Hey, Rolly! Take the advice of Valerie Jarret: speak truth to power!
these muslims must have been infiltrating the media industries for a generation to be able to get such ready use out of it.
Given that this movie has a trifecta of political idiots in it (Woody Harrelson, John Cusack, and Danny Glover), I guess I’ll have to miss it.
I give “2012” the Movie....several thumbs down....and assorted other hand gestures.
What’s the big deal?
It seems to me that if the producders want to stay real, then yes...
Destroy all that is good and leave evil.
Isn’t that the meaning of apocalypse?
Leaving muslims in this world realy truly is the end of the world.
what an azzhat
I was going to go see this until I read this
I was going to turn a blind eye to the cast and take my kid to see it. Not now, what a bunch of wusses.
FWIW, I know three men named Roland, two of them are witches.
Just sayin’...
My question is do they not show Muslim landmarks at all or do they just never show them being destroyed?
Forget all this...how can anyone stomach a film in which the world ends, but John Cusack survives!
f’ing cowards.
Screw hollywood.
Reason enough for me to skip this tripe. Just like “The Day After The Day After The Day After Tomorrow”
Why people make movies like this is beyond me...actuallyI know, it’s all about money but what I can’t fathom is why anyone would want to the destruction of earth.
I hate movies like this. We have enough violence in real life.
The cast listing suck also.
