I Am an Animal: The Story of Ingrid Newkirk and PETA (2007)

Powerful

[10/10 · 21 August 2008]

I had never understood PETA, well, I mean, I had read things about their lobbying and such, but i never understood WHY. Until I watched this video a few days ago. My friend who has been a Vegan for many many years now just turned this video on while she, myself, and a few other friends were at her home for a get together. She had to turn it off after a while due to our protests against the video, or at least some footage they had there. I violently threw up for hours after it. But, Now, at least I understand them. And I am now trying to go vegetarian. (Although, i am still very knew to it) PETA is very much an organization that has my support now. Even though i haven't seen the ENTIRE film (due to my weak stomach).

I cant look at meat the same way, I cant even look at my FAUX fur coat anymore. Although i have had a few temptations towards the meat. I always remember this one clip of a cow *SPOILER* falling and slipping on blood. Its horrible. I cant even think about it anymore. Its a great emotional movie and can most definitely move people into vegetarianism.

The Hills (2006–2010)

Waste of production money and waste of teens brains

[1/10 · 16 May 2008]

This show has got to be the WORST by far on television. I would rather watch "all my children" or American idol reruns than this. Everyone knows this show isn't real, and even if it was, they live such boring lives why doesn't MTV do something useful? Like, oh, I don't know, play music? Hello! Music TV?!!?

Really I only saw about 10 minutes of it (because my friends told me I had to see it) and I swore it was the biggest load of crap. Survivor is more realistic than is!

Why are we watching shows about rich girls who have more than the need as it is while there are kids on the street in DC in NYC, there's even a genocide going on in Darfur and what are American Teens doing rather than figuring out what can be done to save the world we're living in? Watching a bunch of spoiled brats sit and eat salad and stare at each other. Seriously?

I have no understanding toward this show (or even the preceding show um Orange County?) If MTV just wants to wast money, please, buy us all a new house or something. Change someone's life for the better, don't give a TV show to a bunch of snotty brats who's biggest concern is who's dating who and why.

Waste of money, waste of brains, waste of TV.
