google 2012

The aim of the demand to google 2012 is not to find the homepage of the film, but to find the "facts" about the Mayan Calender and the apocalypse. So I delete the Guardian critic because it is wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.219.175.233 (talk) 08:51, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I personally agree, but the Guardian article is the opinion of a relevant and notable media outlet, so it should be included. I've found a source to give the other side of the picture, but if someone could find a more notable source that would be awesome. --Irrevenant [ talk ] 02:07, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I saw a comment from someone saying that this is part of a Google/Sony cross-promotion deal. I couldn't find anything official - could someone confirm or deny? --Irrevenant [ talk ] 02:12, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Teaser Trailer

I know this isn't really relevant - well, perhaps it is of interest to note - but I just wanted to say I really like the use of the music from the trailer for Stanley Kubrick's The Shining in this trailer. Nice touch. Dingno (talk) 03:36, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is probably not too relevant to the talk page meant for improving the article. ;) We're supposed to follow the talk page guidelines and avoid treating the talk page as a forum for discussion. Discussion is better held on user talk pages (as long as you don't use Wikipedia for only non-editing purposes) or another website, like IMDb. —Erik (talk • contrib) 14:40, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies. Is it relevant, then, to make note of that fact; that is, that the music from the teaser trailer is the same as the music from the Stanley Kubrick's The Shining trailer?Dingno (talk) 07:47, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if it's an important detail to include. I recall trying to find information about the trailer when it first came out, but most articles just announced the trailer and the premise of the film. Trailers don't get that much coverage, and I think in this case, the "Google 2012" element of the trailer overshadowed other elements of the film that could have been covered. It may be of more interest to readers what kind of music will be in the film itself. —Erik (talk • contrib) 20:32, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"WHO WILL BE LEFT BEHIND?"

Is this tagline a reference to the Left Behind series? Maybe a rip-off?--189.178.27.19 (talk) 03:33, 9 April 2009 (UTC)Surten[reply]

Plot

I see there is not much about the plot of the movie. In this video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJjQMwEjC1I (fora.tv official channel, not a copyvio), the astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson says he has seen a preview, and that aliens come, and take over the capital. Is this worthy of addition? Remember wikipedia doesn't care about spoilers, so if relevent, that is not an issue to stop it being added. Gdfgrsegyjhcc (talk) 23:34, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
