Why is it that we enjoy seeing movies depicting the destruction of everything we've built as a society. I'm not excluding myself here. Floods, fire, gigantic ants, godzilla, whatever. A common theme is the destruction coming from a natural force amplified by human actions. I never get tired of watching our cities torn apart. Is it a desire for a return to nature? A sense of guilt for our exploitation of the
earth? Or do we like to see humankind surviving through adversity?
Anyway, "2012" might be entertaining. As "men on film" would say, I'm sure things will blow up real good!
