2012

Watched 2012 yesterday. The story is kind of expected.



It’s definitely not a movie that will be nominated for Oscar. But the market needs these movies. I also need these movies sometimes.



I recalled when I was young, in most Hollywood movies I watched, yellow faces were always appeared as stupid passer-bys. Black people usually died first among a group of people.



Now………the ark is built in china. The abnormal earth movement is first discovered by an Indian scientist. The US President, the key person of the project are black people. At the end, Africa seems to be the only place unaffected by the disasters. Things changed.



There’s actually one scene I like.



2 monks in a Tibet temple. Young and old.



The old monk kept pouring water into the young monk’s cup. The young monk asked him dont pour anymore bcos the water was spilling from the cup.



The old monk said, if he needs to get the water, he had to empty the cup.



I forgot whether they are discussing about knowledge, or faith on god. Anyway, they are basically the same to me.
