I went to see something awhile back and EVERY preview had something to do with the Apocalypse,
Biblical Revelation, (both of these were usually wrapped up together in the same package), Super-
Heroes, or Natural Disasters. So what does this say about our Western 'End of Days', God-obsessed, permanently infantalized comic
book culture, where we rate something as worth seeing just for the 'Special Effects' and the amount of
shit that gets wrecked and blown up?As somebody mentioned 'Avatar' may give great CGI, but what about ... a plot? I'm with PK. I ain't
spending money on James Cameron ...
