    Apocalypse Now. Uh, right?

    So, it's just a few minutes until midnight, or in other words, the 22nd of May here. This so-called day of the rapture hasn't quite gone to plan. Today I haven't seen the following...



    Nor have I seen these guys at my doorstep...



    Roll on 2012.
    Gene: "Have faith in me guys, enjoy the ride—you're in good hands. I can handle this. I can do it!"
    Jim: "How do you know?"
    Gene: "I don't!"
    Jim: "I knew it."
    Gene: "That's okay. There's a first time for everything!"

    RE: Apocalypse Now. Uh, right?

    Why do people make end of the world predictions like this anyway? Either

    1) You're right (obviously hasn't happened yet), but it doesn't matter because everyone's dead anyway.

    2) You're wrong, and you look like a dumbass.

    Seriously...why?

    It's all about the moolah. Take the 2012 film for instance. That made a lot of dough. Oh, and then there's the wackos who actually believe this stuff. I cannot comprehend that either.

    RE: Apocalypse Now. Uh, right?

    Looking at the state of the pastor who predicted it, I reckon the world's a lot more likey to end for him than any of us.
    "It turned out that the ghost was just Mr. Finley, who ran the amusement park. The spooky part is that, as soon as the ghost appeared, the teenagers' dog began to speak! And it spoke in a tortured parody of human speech: 'relp me, Raggy,' it would say. 'I am an abomination and rould re rilled. Rill re, Raggy.'"

    RE: Apocalypse Now. Uh, right?

    I just don't understand how this stuff makes it onto top-priority News Stations? and why do people buy into it? It's not like anyone can truly predict when the world is going to end, anyway.

    The amusing thing about the rapture I find is that from what I've read, it does not go by quickly, but rather lasts for seven years. So it doesn't relate to an apocalypse. At all. Also, according to the bible, the rapture is meant to not be predicted by man. So what is it that supports these supposed predictions? Pretty much nothing but showing that these people are just flat-out crazy. I don't have a religion, but it's sad to see people like that try to represent themselves in those communities.

    RE: Apocalypse Now. Uh, right?

    The world has ended.

    No-one has noticed yet, that's all.
    You're asking for historical accuracy in a series where men weilding three swords in each hand, pirates surfing across land on giant anchors, horses with motocycle parts attached and feudal-era Power Rangers are the norm?

    RE: Apocalypse Now. Uh, right?

    It's crazy how many people supposedly got scammed because of this as they trusted some hoax messiah dude promising them salvation for $$$.

    Oh well, I guess it was an apocalypse for them after all, a financial one that is...

    RE: Apocalypse Now. Uh, right?

    It was great from a visual standpoint; I remember watching everything explode spectacularly and everyone burst into fl-... oh wait, that was the opening to Terminator 2.

    And that was 20 ****ing years ago!
