Roland Emmerich is going to be taking us all back to 10,000 B.C. next month. I’m not going along on that journey. The plot sounds a little bit too Braveheart meets Apoclypto to me. Adding a few computer generated saber-tooth tigers isn’t going to help Emmerich’s Michael Bay-ish storytelling skills. What comes after a movie about the beginning of human civilization? How about the ending of civilization as we know it.

Variety says that Emerich and Harald Kloser just sold a script to Sony for 2012. Despite the name of the movie, a release is planned for summer 2009. It deals with the year that some ancient calendars predicted the end our world. Kloser is a composer who did the music for Day After Tomorrow and other films, but switched to non-musical writing with 10,000 B.C.. This really does not sound promising unless your idea of a good movie is watching stuff get blown up on computers. What am I saying? That’s exactly what your idea of a good movie. This one will, no doubt, be right up your alley.
