PIXAR PROMOTES ANIMAL CRUELTY

Last night I caught a movie with the DVDJERKS, Pat and Jenna.
The movie of the night: The Incredibles (or as the frenchies put it: Les Incroyables).
Now what is the best part about going to see a Pixar film?
Why thats easy. It's the short film that they always show before the feature presentation.

This short film started out with great potential. I was sure it was going to be my favorite one yet. It opened with sunny blue skies and animals in the wild. There was a sheep hopping and dancing along to a Woodie Guthrie-esque ditty. It was quite lovely...Until the mean humans came along in their noisy truck and grabbed the sheep. They shaved him clean and left him cold and naked and sad in the bitter cold rain. The little sheep was no longer happy and all the other animals made fun of him.

Thus enters stupid, moronic jackrabbit, hopping and singing along. He tells the sheep that it is not what is on the outside that counts, but whats on the inside. Now this could make just quite a moral fable, except that the Jackrabbit teaches the sheep to be happy with what he has, even if the mean men come around every spring and shave him.

The film ends with the sheep hopping through winter, all fluffy and proud, and then when spring comes along, he puts his foot out, allowing the men to grab him and tackle him and shave him.
Now I'm not sure what the intentions of this film are, but I'm pretty sure it send out a graphic message that torturing animals for our own pleasure is okay, because the animals will learn to be happy anyways... Or at the least bit that succumbing to abuse is a-okay, so long as you put on a happy face. Too bad I'm no longer a hippie... I'd so start a petition or something if I was.

And so we come to the moral of my story...
Never trust anyone from Montana.

SIDENOTE: The actual movie was incredible, hence the name. The teenage girl incredible was what Mary-Kate Olsen would be if Mary-Kate had super powers.
