Did you know dog meat is served in restaurants in South Korea?
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...

What I like about the modern cartoon movies is their three-dimensional characters as opposed to the two dimensional characters of times past. Ralph just wants recognition for his contributions to the game, nothing more, but seems to be stuck in the role of "bad guy" no matter his personality when not in game mode.
The real story isn't about Ralph breaking out of his archtype, but how he learns to place his personal gain aside and think of the needs of others (or more specifically, an other) over his own interests.
While I enjoyed the movie, I didn't laugh at the jokes or ancient references nearly as much as my roommate. I also couldn't find any sort of emotional attachment to the character of Ralph, but that might just be me.
