The logical progression

Roland Emmerich is a director who loves disaster flicks. Independence Day, Godzilla, The Day After Tomorrow are some of his, ahem, masterpieces. His latest movie - 2012 - is simply a culmination of decades of visualizing the destruction of famous architectural landmarks. This time, naturally, his canvas is Earth itself. How original.

After watching this preview of 2012 is there a point to seeing the movie at all? We know all the major "events" that will occur. Oh well, at least somewhere, some CGI specialists are able to take home a regular salary and feed their wide-eyed babies.
