2012 Japanese Trailer

It must be trailer week at Sony Pictures International. Yesterday they released an international trailer for Zombieland, and today they've released a new Japanese trailer for Roland Emmerich's new disaster flick 2012. It might start off similar to the previously released domestic trailer, but about half way through we begin to see a lot of scenes and sequences we haven't seen before. We also begin to learn more about the story — where are the main characters going? How will they survive? The countdown clock is introduced.

To be honest with you, I'm more excited for this film than I should be. Yes, I'm not expecting a great movie, or even a good story, but the sequence we saw at Comic-Con with a limo outrunning an earthquake was so ridiculous, yet fun in all the ways that Transformers 2 should have been, but wasn't. Check out the new Japanese trailer embedded after the jump. Leave your thoughts in the comments below.
