Subject: Did the trailer for the movie "2012" scare you when you've first seen it?
Written By: inconscious on 03/17/25 at 1:59 pm
I remember back in 2010 when I was 9, I was watching a movie on DVD in the living room with my family. There were a few trailers before the movie began, and one of those trailers was for the movie "2012".
From what I remember, the trailer showed the whole world falling apart and people trying to escape with their lives.
It scared me so much that I started breathing hard and fast. My mother had to calm me down after that.
It's just a scary thought to think about the whole world ending.
Did this trailer scare you when you were younger?

I never saw the movie. I knew the whole 2012 doomsday thing was BS. My 2012 was Y2K. There was a lot of panic about computers, which had always been dated with two-digit years. e.g. '71-'99. (I didn't have a computer yet. $$$) But what really got me was when David Letterman and Paul Shaffer kept telling me "Everything will explode!" (He even had Jame Earl Jones do a Top Ten list where number 10 was "Stuff's gonna 'splode!") Mom, who's none-too-bright, had to talk some sense into me. (Ironic, I know.)
But no. I never once bought into the 2012 doomsday hype. But I did poke fun at it all. On another forum that I was on, I posted a thread "Well, the world ended today." Plus, I wrote the parodies "Lyin' Mayan Clock" and "The Mayans Were Right."
But you know who did fall for it? Future actress Millie Bobby Brown. She recently revealed this during her current press tour for The Electric State. She was so terrified she wrote down everything she was grateful for, then she woke up the next day. ;D :o I don't know if she's seen the movie (or many), but I wonder if she'd have traumatic memories from it, or she's just humor herself? (She was eight, around the time she started acting. I don't know if she had her SAG card yet.)
