I've got to love that an overly serious summer disaster movie starts with a pretty stupid factual error in referring to the Mayans as "mankind's earliest civilization."

It wasn't even the first "great" civilization since the Egyptian pharaohs had been going for about a thousand years by the time the Mayans were starting out.

Stupid to care, but helps establish the expectation bar.
