:: worth the very long queue ::

this and that : 2012

I wud say i like it :) Why?
(p.s penilaian awal berdasarkan: put aside all personal perspective, zero in mind x silap is pre-iconographic theory and well i dun take the 'KIAMAT' nye issue tu seriously in this film... as i said, it is not all about the end of the day. It's sumthing broader).

First of all, jgn harapkan kiamat berlaku dlm this movie. Sbb? This story is against the apocalypse beliefs. It is based on the American's beliefs that the world is never gona end on 2012, it is just a reformating, or refresh process of the earth (mcm yg jd kt atlantis), melalui kejadian bencana alam. (as been said by Einstein, the north pole akan switch place), thats why watak Jackson is the writer of Farewell Atlantis. Somehow US akan angkat philospher mereka juga. (xleh nafikan)

But what I love most about this movie is, the way they put many issues in it (which sumthing we can think about deeply), and ofcoz jln cite world disaster cmni, mmg x logic skit, which heroes will always akan terselamat sbb hero la yg bwk jln cite. (cmne lak kalau hero mati kan) :P

And I love jugak the way they criticize the US (though akhirnya mengangkat jugak). How US will usually manipulate the mind of the world citizen, (though cite ni pun manipulate mind gak haha), and how US ni actually a self-proclaim nye type of people! (by the plot yg jd kat Satnam). Mcmana pada awalnya US cam x nak layan Dr.Adrian, but bila tgok reports by him, trus je tanya Dr.Adrian been reporting to whom all this while and trus amik Dr. Adrian! And masa persidangan all the Prime Ministers and Presidens, trus je kenalkan Dr. Adrian as..."Our genius scientist" katanya. Padahal at first Satnam yg jumpe mende tu kan. -Even cite ni pun mcm ketidakpuasan hati Americans to the Mayans due to the Mayan's theory of 2012. (nape ek? is it sbb bukan American yg jumpe dulu pasal 2012 ke? Well, ya ya ya they really need to be the first of the first all the time. I dunno. It is just a personal perception).

And commonly there's black-white issue sikit (cliche but not so obvious), however I love about how they frame the Russian's power, about the China's conflict (penggunaan tenaga buruh)... Agak penindasan terhadap China la jugak. It's about the VETO power. (In the United Nations Security Council, the five permanent members is the United States, Russia, the People's Republic of China, France and the United Kingdom). About money can buy priority, about how selfish human can be...

After all, back to basic it is all about the HUMANISME, UNITY, LOVE... 'civilization basic'! Some are proud to say that they are well-civilized, but actually acting like a nuts! -tepuk air percik muka sendiri. And about technology ciptaan manusia memusnahkan manusia pun again a cliche issue tp bukanlah main issue tp digarap dgn baik indirectly. Bila kete Bently canggih tu guna voice command, humm kalau si Yuri tu dah mati awal2, kete tu mmg xleh guna ah kan. And masa ark dorg xleh start engine sbb pintu xleh tutup. (technology kdg2 memakan diri manusia), as all the buildings, skycrappers, ciptaan manusia smua menghempap manusia balik. Somehow they debut back yg TECHNOLOGY boleh selamatkan manusia dari the end of the world. (tak nak pikir sbb nanti lari akidah).

Tp nasib baik the writer, director x cuba mempropagandakan Islam. Tp kalau I nak being offensive, I'd say ade jugak. Which masa they show the world reactions towards the date, they showed org Islam unite pray (visual depan kaabah), and some other races/regions in the world did too. Melalui visual tu, if I am trying to be extra offensive (sensitif melampau), I'd say it is a penghinaan secara synical indirectly, where WE do not try to do anything utk selamatkan generasi manusia, but they do! Especially when President of Italy are not joining the escaping mission, someone did said "The President of Italy decided not to join and stay believing in the power of prayer" (something like that). And something fishy about the 'ITALIAN'. Why is that it has to be the President of Italy? Is it about...the Roman Catholic thingy? Is it regarded to the matter of Roman Catholic-American conflict sumwhere in the 1950's? I dunno, i dun master this issue, so i have nothing to say, it is just something to think about.

Cuma few things yg x best is dramatic moment diguna pakai byk kali (twice and more) which dah jd x best and rasa mcm wuek. Which they use significant symbolic nye moment cth : masa Gordon shopping ngn his wife kt mall yg nak runtuh tu, he said, "lately i can feel something is trying to put as apart" (camtula lebih kurg), sekali yg floor tu retak and they were put apart. And the next time they use it is masa ship tu ngah cruising, ada lagu 'the end of the world'... And dramatic moment plays on audience about the hero 2 kali x silap digunakan. Which masa Jackson jatuh dgn caravan tu, (when Gordon nak fly tinggalkan Jackson)... kita cam ooo... JACKSON!!! Sekali jeng jeng jeng, tgn dia naik! YEAY! And again masa yg Jackson swim down x naik2, pun kita audience ni disaji dgn dramatic moment yg sama. (byk guna dramatic moment yg lebih kurg sama.. so cam sakit hati je audience).

Black hero : Dr.Adrian
White hero : Jackson Curtis
(double-hero, it's a good idea!)

*uhmm jgn harapkan film-film apocalypse ni ttg kiamat semata, sbb kiamat adalah propaganda penarik audience, isi dalamnye tu, ada agenda, pengisian dan issue lain. In 2012, Emmerich combines natural disasters and global government conspiracy.
