review: March of the Penguins

Y'know, perhaps these penguins wouldn't be almost extinct if they didn't face starvation just to get some nookie.

And y'know what would make a penguin movie cooler? If the penguins had a violent car chase followed by a death cage match to determine nesting ground.

I weep for the future of the documentary.

Unless Peguins really do develope cybernetics. Actually, penguins should invent space-heaters first.

if they were cybernetic penguins, they wouldn't need to worry about the cold.

Their cybernetics would freeze up surely?
If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

42, this was my favorite line in the review:
"Unlike most movie couples, penguins do not flippantly procreate."

That made me lol.  ;D

I have a confession to make. Often, when I type the words "lol"... well... I'm always amused, but... y'know, I'm not always actually laughing "out loud." It's just, kind of ... habit I guess.

whew. That's better. I'm no longer lal. (living a lie).
