Your Dodgeball

I watched Dodgeball again recently. All was well until I noticed the sign to the left of the Average Joe's logo:


"If your under 18?" How many people were there on that set? No one noticed? AGHAHGH.

Food, Inc.

Official Trailer:


This movie is fantastic. It's loosely based on Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser and The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan. It does a fantastic job summarizing both books in 90 minutes. (By the way, go read those books.) Oh yeah, and both Pollan and Schlosser produced and appear in it.

The movie is divided into 3 major segments:
  1. Factory Farming (Meat)
  2. Intensive Farming (Grain)
  3. The Evils of the Major Food Companies and Their Economic and Political Power
The film ends with tips on how to break the cycle and avoid being a part of the system that is slowly killing us all economically, environmentally, and medically.
