Here is Hollywood's version of the 2012 Simulacrum. Now I know what Baudrillard meant when he speaks of "Violence of the Image" being more dangerous than physical violence.
I hope they are going to make this Simulacrum a lot better than the 2000 Millenium dud. Here, I found a trailer...
Maybe we'll get to see Michael Moore explode, like he did on Team America, World Police. But in all seriousness, I expect that they will attack lots of images that they control inside the Simulacrum. People who still buy-in will probably be devastated.
P.S. I like that you posted this in the Occult subforum, as this is where this crap belongs.

yes of course they could have something planned for us for 2012 but I agree that it seems like is is just another media thing that they can build up and draw attention with for the public, keep them wondering, thinking, hoping, just like Y2K. Yes it is probably just another hoax, a diversion.

I do agree that the hype will greatly outweigh the actual events that take place. But I think the impact of the events on an individual will be proportional to their belief in the images that will be attacked. It will be the images of their own system, those that they control, that will suffer the greatest. For those who see the simulacrum clearly, I think the impact will be minimal.
