Did you know dog meat is served in restaurants in South Korea? I didn't. In the United States and most western countries, Fido is a family companion and while it's not ethical to judge another culture by our standards, anyone who doesn't at least (humanely) butcher the animal first is acting without proper care. South Korea relies on western consumerism for their economy and needs to be aware that we do not accept the practice of skinning and boiling dogs alive. Originally shared by April Benney Over 6,000 restaurants in South Korea are still serving dog meat even though it is now illegal. In many Asian countries dogs are boiled alive or skinned alive when slaughtered. It's an unbelievably horrendous & torturous way to die. I know a lot of you hate seeing this kind of posts on G+, but the Asian industry slaughtering dogs & cats is how I first got involved in animal rights & it will always be my main animal welfare concern. It's intolerable what is happen...

I get it, we go to movies and watch TV to escape from the real world, to live for an hour or two in another world, a world that doesn't have to be based in reality.
I, too, liked Prometheus, and I think everyone nitpicking at the tiniest of details is ridonkulous. The story was about every story created by mankind: who are we, or who am I? It's no less 'fantasy' than the Alien it's purported to precede, or Batman or Bladerunner.
But, I am a glutton for information. It's my downfall. I really enjoy learning about the reality behind the fiction.
I adore cerebral films. Few directors make cerebral films. Aaronofsky is a favorite.
