Food Inc.
I'm so glad I don't eat pork and beef.
I'm now rethinking my decision to eat chicken and turkey because of this movie.
The film-makers take an in-depth look at the places where our food in super markets comes from. And it's definitely not the places we think it's coming from. The fresh fruit, vegetables and meat that we think are coming from a farm are actually coming from a plant where our food is manufactured rather than grown. Animals are genetically engineered to be larger than they are naturally supposed to be. And the vegetables that we buy that are out of season are picked off the vines before they are ripe and are ripened on the way to our stores with gases and chemicals.
Probably the most shocking part of the film is what food "engineers" are doing with corn. There is an over-abundance of corn being grown and then genetically modified into cheap easy foods like chips and pop. They even show a family who goes to the grocery store to try to feed their family of four and instead of buying fresh fruits and food they have to settle for the genetically engineered food because they can't afford nutritious food.
It's crazy that it's taken someone this long to trace the footsteps of where our food has come from. But now that someone has, I wonder if it will change the way we eat. Probably not since the genetically modified foods are so delicious. It's kind of like Supersize Me where they told you all these bad things about McDonalds, yet you left the movie with a craving for french fries!
This movie is enough to turn anyone into an organics-only health nut

Zombieland Update
I just realized that I had talked about how excited I was for Zombieland, but never really followed up on it. Good thing my computer crashed...
I LOVE ZOMBIELAND
Everything about it is great. It's bloody, it's funny, it's got woody harrelson and bill murray... I can't get enough of it. I don't know how many times I've watched it already, but I could watch it over and over again and not be bored at all.
Although it has nothing to do with zombies, this is probably my favourite part of the movie. (total spoiler if you haven't seen it)

Inside
I've been making an attempt to watch all of the films included in the Dimension Extreme list. At some point, I would have to get to Inside.
Inside is about a pregnant woman who gets into a car accident in which her husband is killed. Some time passes and the woman continues deals with her grievance and her pregnancy until we see her on Christmas Eve. She is home alone and there is a stranger outside her house. The stranger knows her name and she wants the baby inside her tummy!
I won't tell you anymore about the movie...Because no one told me about it and it's one of those movies you need to experience first hand. I will tell you, however, that it's bloody as all hell.
Definitely not meant for the weak of heart...or stomach. It's one of those movies you watch through spread fingers with your palm over your face. Do I watch? Do I look away?
...But I think you know the answer to that.

action figures are not just for children...
Look at what I found while getting my daily (and completely unnecessary) update of celebrity gossip!
I think I should get one of each... and then have battles to the death!
