Let me make a comment about this movie.</p> <p>I feel very much confused with this movie. because it is not only Japanesewho slaughting the animals on the planet, Kangaroos are slaughted in Australia, Foxes are hunted for entertaining noble people in England, tons of stock animals are killed and waisted to garbage everyday.... why only us regarded as sin people? </p> <p>Also, who saids that killing the "nasty" people in Iraq is our justice?</p> <p>Who did polluted the ocean with a lot of Mercury or PCB????</p> <p>I feel sad when I watch the slaughting scene. But, I think that his movie is out of focus and misleading people only to stir up anger to Japanese people and culture of eating whale.</p> <p>If he insist the enviroment improvement and animal protection, we have to keep watching his act in the future.  If he is a real man of enviroment, he would continue to work for the enviroment, but if he not, I regret to say that he is just a person who just aimed at winning Oscar prize.</p></div></div></div> Sat, 20 Mar 2010 03:23:20 +0000 You are also sin people comment 10976 at http://dagblog.com We couldn't believe that http://dagblog.com/comment/10876#comment-10876 <a id="comment-10876"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/arts-entertainment/cove-wins-oscar-best-documentary-fisher-stevens-misses-point-about-saving-dolphin">&#039;The Cove&#039; wins Oscar for Best Documentary - but Fisher Stevens misses the point about saving dolphins</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>We couldn't believe that Stevens blew the opportunity actually talk about the content and purpose of the film! It was like watching an episode of the Twilight Zone, they show a clip from this profound movie showing blood filling a cove with the slaughter and all he can do is discuss how he was glad he made a film that was "informative and entertaining" when it is a film about the stark realities of ecocide! It was gaulling--I wish the Director had spoken and I'm glad he's getting his comments out.</p></div></div></div> Tue, 09 Mar 2010 02:25:30 +0000 Kate MacDowell comment 10876 at http://dagblog.com The Cove was the first http://dagblog.com/comment/10859#comment-10859 <a id="comment-10859"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/arts-entertainment/cove-wins-oscar-best-documentary-fisher-stevens-misses-point-about-saving-dolphin">&#039;The Cove&#039; wins Oscar for Best Documentary - but Fisher Stevens misses the point about saving dolphins</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>The Cove was the first documentary film, Fisher Stevens  had co-produced.
