Now I'm even more curious to see this movie...
Quoted: Pixar's new animated feature Wall-E is more than a great movie. According to the critics, it's a trenchant social commentary. So what is this powerful and profound message? Wall-E tells us that if we don't change the way we live, we'll all get really fat and destroy the world.

ok, here I am asking a question of Gov Gregoire and Candidate Dino Rossi in the WA state governor's race. please go to youtube and watch the video and give it a good rating so that it's picked as one of the final 5! (and make fun of me later...) Even if you don't live in the state, you can still vote on the video :-)

This is the goat-rental company (rent a ruminant) that the city hired to clear the brush adjacent to the dog park. See my previous Fave for details. Here is the info if you want to hire a herd for your own purposes:
1 FaverViewed: 6 TimesQuoted: Minimum herd size is 60 goats and 3 days.
The area must be at least 8,000 square feet and have access for a 40 foot truck and trailer.
Tammy lives in her truck on-site and 24-hour access to a bathroom (or Port-A-Potty) must be provided.
60 goats can eat about 1/4 acre (10,000 sq feet) in about 3-5 days. - sudha - 8 days ago1 FaverViewed: 3 Times

I can't believe Daniel Engber got that impression of the movie. Very poor correlations. Wow.
I'm not sure he actually paid attention to the movie because they made a point of saying that the severe obesity was due to being in space ... the movie even cutely mentioned it as a "change in bone density". The world was polluted and destroyed BEFORE everyone left and became obese -- 700 years later.
Exactly.
completely missed the point of the movie. clearly the movie is focused on overconsumption and all the problems that it causes but i think the fact that it's buying stuff and materialism that cause people to leave earth is the main message...
