The two best films of 2010 are A Prophet (france) and Enter the Void (france aswell).

Both are exceptional as pieces of art, and the former is an amazing story too.

Wasn't that movie released last year?

Well Ill call it by American release dates, or Australian, so 2010 for me.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

I thought the movie was pretty nice, if a bit boring at times, I hated the douchebag twins, and they got what was coming in the end lol. Yeah I felt sorry for the guy, he pretty much got assspanked out of the company even though he was the first investor, I'd pretty disappointed in my friend and upset too.. But LOL

*SPOILER*


Newspaper article about animal cruelty, when he fed the Chicken a chicken burger x)))

I don't even see that as a big deal.

I mean that shit happens every day in factory farms yet nobody cares.

Disgusting. Can you give details? What products should I avoid?


Baisically all meat that you haven't shot yourself or know the growers really. Or meat specifically labeled "cruelty free" which is going to cost you a lot more, and even then is no gurantee. Always buy local if you can.

It's really hard to tell what is factory farmed and what isn't.  Something like 60% of the world's meat is factory farmed, with the majority of that being the Western world.

Hence why in another post I was saying hunting isn't cruel compaired to farming though.

As for details, basically to save money, the butchered animal parts people can't eat are ground up into the feed and fed back to the surviving animals.  Even in countries where it's been banned to put in animal meat like the UK, they still often feed them their own blood gelatin and fat.

Seems like your biggest issue factory farm wise is Smithfield, not only is it using inhumane and unsafe methods, it's putting Romanians out of buisness.  http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/06/business/global/06smithfield.html?_r=1&ref=dining&pagewanted=all

Yeah... it's pretty  horrifying.  You basically have to avoid... everything... as even the "safe" stuff tends to adopt some of the sickening industrial stuff.

Unless you know a local farmer and have seen their actual farm.
