Seth Rogen, my new hero, had a discussion with George Lucas, Seth thought the conversation was a joke, but quickly realized that George Lucas really thinks things are ending in 2012. Here is Seth Rogen's recollection of the conversation:
“He’s going on about the tectonic plates and all the time Spielberg is, like, rolling his eyes, like, ‘My nerdy friend won’t shut up, I’m sorry…’
I first thought he (Lucas) was joking… and then I totally realized he was serious and then I started thinking, ‘If you’re George Lucas and you actually think the world is gonna end in a year, there’s no way you haven’t built a spaceship for yourself… So I asked him… ‘Can I have a seat on it?’
He claimed he didn’t have a spaceship, but there’s no doubt there’s a Millennium Falcon in a garage somewhere with a pilot just waiting to go… It’s gonna be him and Steven Spielberg and I’ll be blown up like the rest of us.”
Hmmmm,
Ummm, wasnt the world supposed to end in 2000 with that whole Y2K thang… The tools banking on the old Mayan 2012 date are a little behind on their math conversion. The reality is, the world ended when idiots voted in Obama 🙂
