New 2012 Footage Offers Pleasing, L.A.-Centric Look At The End Times

If you weren't quite as aroused as we were by those five minutes of non-stop destruction, we'll allow that they may have been pandering a bit to those of us in L.A. The clip's basically Angeleno wish-fulfillment, as no one who spends an unhealthy chunk of their life trapped in a car hasn't fantasized about a jam-packed parking structure lurching sideways to belch out of a few hundred cars so we can get a decent spot, or hallucinated that they're suddenly floating high above bumper-to-bumper traffic on the 405, watching as a violently displaced chunk of the city heaves upwards before sliding into the ocean, ending the lives of the thousands of rubbernecking assholes making them late for a morning meeting on the Fox lot. You know, just your standard, totally healthy coping mechanisms.

But you know, if you're not that interested in Los Angeles, they tell you right there, at the end, in a raspy warning : It's not just California. It's the whole world. So there's a little something for everybody who kinda sorta wishes for the wholesale destruction of their city from time to time.

Verdict: Bring it on. And maybe we need a little time away from L.A.? Nah.
