A question about 2012 (the film) *spoilers*

I just read that apparently it has a typical hollywood ending. How the FUCK can a movie about the end of the world have a happy ending? How is that even possible? If the main character doesn't die, then it's not the end of the world and the very premise of the movie is flawed.

*takes the internet seriously*

Member, you member...
If it's like this director's last movie, John Cusack will save at least one family member and possibly begin to rebuild the world.

"An epic adventure about a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world and tells of the heroic struggle of the survivors" - imdb

Out of all the people to survive the end of the world, why does it have to be the guy who held up the boombox outside the girl's window?

But if you survive it, then it's not the end of the world. They pulled this same shit in The Knowing. Just once I want a movie where everyone dies and the last scene is a lifeless wasteland or what used to be an Earth.
 
They find out it's panda bears that are causing the end of the world and slaughter them all using an ancient stone left by aliens from mars who had the same thing happen to their planet but they were too late so they sent it to earth so that maybe we would have a chance at survival.

At least that's how M. Night Shamamalamamamamaalana would have it end

I just saw a commercial for the film, and I think an even better question to ask is why the hell do all of these apoctalyptic movies have black presidents? I mean, Danny Glover is so awesome he probably walked right up to the Mayans and bitch slapped their predictions back to 3014, but he doesn't need to be the President to do that.

Good point.
