New footage from 2012 movie released

MTV.com recently released an exclusive clip of the upcoming disaster flick "2012." The viral marketing behind the film is brilliant, but the new footage isn't as notable. The newly released footage features John Cusack's character "Jackson Curtis" and a group of frantic passengers narrowly escaping from a cargo plane that is about to crash. The airplane crash scene is the first actual footage released from the highly anticipated movie.

Cargo Plane Crash Scene

The scene that MTV.com provided starts out with a pilot losing control of a low-flying cargo plane carrying cars. The panicked passengers load into Bentley that Cusack can't start until a heavily accented passenger orders everyone to quiet down. Once it is quiet, the passenger starts the car by saying "engine start." Then Cusack hits the gas in the nick of time, driving the car out of the plane's open bottom-hatch saving them all as the plane crashes and cars go flying.

The consensus over the sneak-peak seems to be a disappointment in the special effects. Despite the hype and viral marketing behind the film, the actual footage isn't jaw dropping, even though the intense "2012" trailers have caused quite a stir.

"2012" stars John Cusack, Thandie Newton and Woody Harrelson and hits theaters on November 13, 2009.
