And we knew that Roland Emmerich used Graham’s seminal book for his 2012 movie, but not until now did the ‘master of disaster’ credit Graham. Now he has, in this Time Out interview:

‘I always wanted to do a biblical flood movie, but I never felt I had the hook. I first read about the Earth’s Crust Displacement Theory in Graham Hancock’s “Fingerprints of the Gods”. When I discussed it with Harald [Kloser, his writing partner], I said we need a “plausible” reason, not a scientific one. Show this film to a scientist and they would probably laugh.’

If you were watching television last night between 10:50 p.m. and 11 p.m. last night, chances are, you saw a new two-minute trailer for Sony Pictures’s upcoming disaster epic “2012.” In a huge commercial roadblock, 90% of all homes watching ad-supported tv — including ABC, CBS, NBC, and various cable, local tv, and Spanish-language networks — were exposed to the disaster-iffic scene, which featured John Cusack attempting to help Amanda Peet and several other actors navigate a crumbling Los Angeles (think airplanes swooping through collapsing buildings and cars zooming over a crushed highway.

Directed by Roland Emmerich, who also helmed “Independence Day” and “The Day After Tomorrow” and clearly has never met an explosion he didn’t like, the ensemble film revolves around the idea that the world will end in 2012, and co-stars Danny Glover, Oliver Platt, Woody Harrelson and a slew of others. “2012″ will be released Nov. 13. Check out the footage below:
