Lots of folks aren't watching it, it seems.
And that was before this particular little kerfuffle popped up.

Given how few people have actually seen the movie, I think they're better off not saying anything and not giving it free publicity.

Yeah, If I had the patience for it I'd write a leftest book, get Glenn Beck to hate on it, then enjoy piles of money from book sales.

They lost me when they painted The Odd Couple's Felix and Oscar as a couple of "confirmed bachelors" or some such nonsense.

They were both divorced, and both had kids.

So thanks to that article for getting my dander up on this minuscule point...otherwise I would've given zero farks instead of one very small one.

Weaver95: sometimes a dancing penguin is just a dancing penguin.

Wait, I thought a dancing penguin was representative of one's mother's penis. I'm so confused.
 
2011-12-03 05:56:35 PM
"It also makes the case, somewhat half-heartedly, for vegetarianism (the penguins see humans roasting chickens, and get spooked). This doesn't go very far, though, because penguins aren't vegetarians though I suppose they're pescetarians."

Holy shiat, are you kidding me? This is an argument for vegetarianism? Granted, we are talking about cartoon penguins here, but don't you think they might get spooked because they are afraid they will be eaten next? I suppose a fish getting spooked seeing penguins eating some other animal is outrageous as well?

Bucky Katt: Rightwing Christians always have to be whining about something.

It's a foundational part of the religion. The whole "if you are not with me, you are against me" thing. Christianity started out as an oppressed cult among the Jews and Roman slaves. They've never quite figured out that they are the majority now. They have to have outside forces trying to destroy them. And when they don't, they invent ones out of thin air.

These "conservatives" are just cowards. They see the boogy man in every corner.

I guess their morals are so flimsy that even an image of a lifestyle they don't approve of is so tempting that it needs to be banned before anyone can see it!

Hollywood's interest in stoking global warming fears seems to have peaked, which is convenient because the public has, after some frightened moments, decisively rejected the alarmist viewpoint) in a scene in which polar bears are shown clinging to shrinking icebergs

How dare they mix polar bears & penguins in the same environment!! That's unnatural (fo real, yo)

Reality has a liberal bias? Does that include the reality that abortion is murdering babies? I suppose if you're a fan of that reality, then you have some sick idea of a utopian society.

wistfulparanoia: Does that include the reality that abortion is murdering babies?

If you're going to redefine the word "baby," why stop there? Why not say women are "murdering babies" by ovulating and men are "murdering babies" when they jack off or use a condom?

Or why not say "telephone zoo electricity exercise zones" since you could redefine all those words in such a way that it becomes a meaningful sentence?

If this was a utopian society those abortions wouldn't go to waste by being casually thrown away in a biohazard bag. They should be used to make a nice stew or a classy handbag. We have a way to go to address the injustices of our culture.

IMO, the first Happy Feet film did get a little bit hamfisted with its environmentalist message in the final act but was still overall a pretty enjoyable movie.

I personally found the right's butthurt over Wall-E to be much funnier. That was a film that was at its heart just a love story between two robots and merely used a loose plot about pollution as the backdrop to drive the events in that story. But of course, the conservatives just had to preemptively overreact and complain about how Pixar was supposedly indoctrinating children with a "far-left pro-green message", completely missing the point of the movie. The best part is that the fact that they biatched about it so much that the issue ended up actually getting more exposure and more people started debating and discussing the "environmental themes" of Wall-E. How's that for a Streisand effect.

Hey, idiot. Just because not everyone agrees with your worldview, doesn't mean they're saying things to get a rise out of people. It also doesn't make one person more right on the issue. I believe conception is a life created. You may believe it occurs after a few months, maybe when the kid actually pops out. However, if you agree that at least a month after conception, that a fetus is a living being, then aborting that is murder. No other way to define it.
