+370 If the Mayans were so good at predicting the future, you would have thought they would have seen the Spanish, amirite?

Thanks a lot for blowing a hole in that whole 2012 theory... I only went and quit college... disowned my entire family... blew all of my savings on horses and booze... slept with nearly all of the married women I could find... punched everybody who ever pissed me off... Now I have to worry about choosing between redemption and pulling my life back together or simply carrying on as I am beyond 2012 under the pretense that I'm actually a "free spirit". Grrrrrrrrrr!

You own horses after spending your savings on them!

Well I'm on a horse.. because anything is possible when you use old spice scented body wash.

The antagonist did in the Road to El Dorado-- because we all know that Disney movies are 100 percent historically accurate.

The Spanish NEVER would have won without the help of all the allies they got in Mexico. They would've been killed instantly, it was only because Mexico civilizations weren't united and they all went against the Aztecs.

Actually they did, that's why they received Hernan Cortes with such honors, they thought he was Quetzalcoatl coming back to take Moctezuma from power. Get your facts straight.

The Maya never met the Spanish, they were gone before the Spanish arrived. The Aztec and the Inca were the ones taken over by the Spanish.

The Mayans weren't alive when the Spanish invaded. . . And the only reason that the Mayans predicted the world's end is because they observed and recorded previous major catastrophes that apparently happen every few thousand years or so, and it just so happens that we fall in the time period of the next one to come.

They actually just said that it would be year 0 once again, a new era, and the calendar would start over.
