Depends on what your values are. Some people, such as Buddhists, are concerned with all suffering, and bull-fighting looks like a lot of suffering.

All life is wrought with suffering; going overboard with worry will leave one empty inside.

'To dig out a mountain, one must first decide which pebble to move' - Me, just now. Someone probably said it before, though. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

I recorded an animated movie for my Nephew the other day. It inolves a sailor and his best friend, a Penguin, who team up with a Koala to protect their magic pudding from puddin thieves. He was just watching it again and I pointed out to his grandmother that it's that sort of story that creates vegetarians, having talking animals, then the child grows up not wanting to eat the talking animals http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif

Incidentally, recently on tv here there's an ad campaign where the spokesman for a chicken products company offers help to those unfortuante .001% of the population that don't like chicken. I expect the vegetarians to get annoyed.

I poked around a bit, and could not find anyplace that displayed planet abilities, other than each individual planet's Abilities tab.

I saw lots of kids movies/cartoons with talking animals growing up, and I still find them very delicious. Now, you want to talk about blatant propaganda films, look to Fern Gully..

Well me too naturally.

The weird thing I noticed in this movie, "The Magic Pudding", was that the main villain wanted to steal the magic nevereneding pudding so he could always eat vegetable pudding, despite the fact the pudding's guardians always had Steak and Kidney pudding. Only when he couldn't have the pudding was the villain forced to eat meat, which he didn't want to. Mind you he was a wombat as far as I can figure.

...I'd be more worried about the kid getting brain damage from the movie.

Well for the record he's only 3.

I have brain damage or something I suspect. I had 2 seperate occasions as a child involving blows to the head. I fell onto train tracks head first, and once down a hill into a rock, head first. When I describe my problems to counsellors I am amazed afterwards at the complete tosh I came up.

"Where did that all come from?" I wonder.

In high school I went around telling people I had a steel plate in my head from the second incident. I don't, but even I started to think I must, otherwise why was I telling everyone that http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/fear.gif

Veggie Tales have talking vegitibles. Does that turn people into Carnivores?
