The Lorax...no wonder the RW is making it
a supreme court case about the tree hugging loonie left.

If you haven't seen it, enjoyable.

Hell, would not mind taking nephews to watch it. But zero surprise why they went off deep end. This is even more pro evvironment than Happy Feet.

I just saw that campfire on Skins's island a couple of minutes ago.

It seems the big guy and nadin are getting rather chummy.

I wonder just how much that campaign will change the sales figures for Mazda SUVs in the grade school children demographic next quarter?

If the DUmbasses knew the real Dr. Seuss they'd hate him as much as they hate disobedient blacks like LTC West.

I've grown tired of leftist Hollywierd movies but the DUmmies will love this. Late one night I saw the tail end of an ad for all 71 episodes of the "Amos and Andy" TV show. If I see it again I'm going to get the info and order them. That was one of the funniest shows on TV when I was a kid.

Only fur'n car I ever had was the 1968 VM the x-wife bought. Mazda SUVs might make the list next time.

So taking Friday afternoons off off your public employee union jobs is a new plank in Steve Dawes Socialist/Communist/fascist for Bellevue City Council is a good thing?

That could work against Chief crying in my beer.  More folks at the DUmp hate Nadinthebrain than like her.

My daughter loves the Lorax story, only when we get to the pages with all of the Truffala (sp?) trees.  We will not go see the movie.  The only Dr Seuss movie I like is Horton Hears A Who.

Heard it wasn't very good.
Even an NPR critic pointed out the film used the book poorly. For instance, he illustrates that there's a scene in which Ted (The main character of the film, a nameless boy in the book) is listening as Audrey (His apparent love interest) tells him about what the truffula trees were like, using their description from the book, "the touch of their tufts was much softer than silk and they had the sweet smell of fresh butterfly milk." In the film, Ted says, "Wow, what does that even mean?", and Audrey responds, "I know, right?"
So, as the critic points out, one of the only lines from the book that is actually used in the movie is essentially made fun of. I'd imagine it would be the equivalent of one of the film's writers bringing Theodore Geisel back from the dead just long enough to tell him, "What you wrote sucks and makes no sense, I'll make it funny!"
I won't even use my free movie pass that I got donating blood on it, I think if 21 Jump Street remains in theaters after Easter (I gave up R- rated films for Lent), I'll use it on that.
