Is the year 2012 the end of the world?
Mayan prediction inspires movie and millions.

The movie 2012 is getting a lot of attention because that’s the date the Mayans predicted the world is going to end. So, a lot of people are going to watch it, but there are some that don’t want to watch it at all. Nathan Espinosa, a freshman at South East High School, says, “I don’t want to watch it because I don’t have time and I think it is stupid”. He says, “that I think it is stupid because it just a myth and people over react about what’s going to happen in the future”. Espinosa says, “people are too ignorant to care about the planet and no one really cares”. The movie is impacting many people but Espinosa says, “The movie will not impact me what-so-ever”.

Richard Nuño a freshman at SEHS, said “people won’t be scared because it is not real”. he really sounded annoyed by this question. And, he said “I really don’t think the world is going to end in 2012 because a lot of people have said it is going to end and it hasn’t”. Nuño also said, “After I watched this movie I felt it didn’t impact me at all” he also added “people won’t really take care of the world after watching the movie”. Freshman named Rocio Sanchez said, “everyone has a different death date so I really don’t think the world is going to end”. She also said “people will probably be more scared after watching the movie, because it will reinforce there belief that the world is going to end”. She seems to know what she was talking about. Also, she added, “people won’t take care of the world after seeing the movie because why would they if the world is going to end”. She also said “it won’t impact her in any way because she knows that it is not going to happen”. So these people have many different perspective of this like these freshman, but they almost have the same perspective of the movie. It would be better if one of them had a different perspective. So, it seems this movie will be great.
