march of the penguins Options

[veve]

anyone see it?

I saw it today and its one of the most beautiful yet surprisingly uplifting films I've seen in a while. I urge you to watch it, if you haven't

But .... if you have, what are your thoughts on it?

[maia_dc]

I didn't see it.
Uhhm it looks cute, but nothing to scream and shout over, in my opinion.

[Im So Vain]

What in the world is that movie about. Ive seen the previews, but it dosent really explain much. So Im not gonna see it since I have no clue what it's about.

[yummy_delight]

Isn't that a documentary? Usually, those aren't my taste.

But, penguins are just so gosh darn cute, and there's a lot of buzz about this movie, so I think I might see it. My mom is all excited to take the family because it's educational and moving... all that jazz. I'm up for it.

[KELLYYY]

This movie looks cute. I wanna watch it.

[Saeglopur]

It ... was ... sold ... out. :cries:

[WhiteLotus*]

I want to see it so bad! I've haven't seen a good documentary since Super-Size me came out. I love penguins too!

[seriouslynikki]

Now that i think of it, i would love to see it with my best friend. It seems interesting, yet cute.

[elmogurly]

never seen it before. i thought it looked pretty ridiculous, but i guess if it's getting good reviews, then it might be worth it!

[rx_azngirl]

that movie looks really pointless to me. all the movie's about is penguins marching, it's not worth it.

[ktsou11]

it looks really cute! but i'll just wait until the DVD comes out :DD

it was much more worth it than Fantastic Four.

[centaur_passion]

I saw a commercial for it this morning with my dad, and were wondering how in the world they managed to make an entire movie about penguins marching. But it does look kind of cute, and I have a bit of a penguin fetish. They're so adorable and waddley.

[technicolour]

IMO, It looks like a PBS documentary narrated by Morgan Freeman. It doesn't look fascinating or anything really.

[hiromi]

I want to see it. It seems like a very interesting and cute documentary/film. I'm just amazed on how the camera guy can get such great footage!

[angel-roh]

WTF?

Wait is this supposed to be a cute animated movie? or an animal real life movie? LOL.

The mother of that baby penguin looks very scary. It has a long neck. EW



((random --- okay my mom is doing the food now. i think she's mad at me for not washing the sangchu aka lettuce. because my family wants to eat lettuce, kimchee, and soh gogi. oh wells... hehe))


btw what's this story about?

Marche de l'empereur, La < --- that's the real title. wow... that's a long title.

v credits to imdb ---
Tagline: In the harshest place on Earth, love finds a way

Each winter, alone in the pitiless ice deserts of Antarctica, deep in the most inhospitable terrain on Earth, a truly remarkable journey takes place as it has done for millennia. Emperor penguins in their thousands abandon the deep blue security of their ocean home and clamber onto the frozen ice to begin their long journey into a region so bleak, so extreme, it supports no other wildlife at this time of year. In single file, the penguins march blinded by blizzards, buffeted by gale force winds. Guided by instinct, by the otherworldly radiance of the Southern Cross, they head unerringly for their traditional breeding ground where--after a ritual courtship of intricate dances and delicate maneuvering, accompanied by a cacophony of ecstatic song--they will pair off into monogamous couples and mate. The females remain long enough only to lay a single egg. Once this is accomplished, exhausted by weeks without nourishment, they begin their return journey across the ice-field to the fish-filled seas. The male emperors are left behind to guard and hatch the precious eggs, which they cradle at all times on top of their feet. After two long months during which the males eat nothing, the eggs begin to hatch. Once they have emerged into their ghostly white new world, the chicks can not survive for long on their fathers' limited food reserves. If their mothers are late returning from the ocean with food, the newly-hatched young will die. Once the families are reunited, the roles reverse, the mothers remaining with their new young while their mates head, exhausted and starved, for the sea, and food. While the adults fish, the chicks face the ever-present threat of attack by prowling giant petrels. As the weather grows warmer and the ice floes finally begin to crack and melt, the adults will repeat their arduous journey countless times, marching many hundreds of miles over some of the most treacherous territory on Earth, until the chicks are ready to take their first faltering dive into the deep blue waters of the Antarctic.

okay that story is like... just marching through antarctic. to let their baby get their chance to swim in the water of antarctic... um interesting? LOL. okay... maybe it will be a good movie since it's kinda like ice age but different... wait this movie sounds like brother bear too. no --- wait no lol.

funny. wait i wonder if someone made this to make fun of this movie or something rofl.


that's pretty cool. i never knew they march lol. i always thought they go in separate ways.

Ok.. so I looked through the pictures. It doesn't even look like animated. It's REAL ANIMALS. Aww --- that sucks.

[freeflow]

i love penguins.. so i really do want to see it.

[veve]

angel-roh ...... its a documentary not a full feature animation. And by no means is it like Ice Age.

There's no dialogue .... there's just narrative (by Morgan Freeman, I must add). I didn't really care for penguins before this film, but its so well done that, I feel sympathy for them. They really have it much worse than us humans do.

[heyyfrankie]

I didn't see it.
Uhhm it looks cute, but nothing to scream and shout over, in my opinion.

couldn't of said it better myself. :)

[turbulent]

[Saeglopur]

It should be really good ... after all, it solded out before Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory!

I know is a documentary. Didn't you read my last line?

[*tweeak*]

It got really good reviews, and it peaked my interest, but i'm not sure i'd have pacience for a documentary on penguins. i'll probably wait until i can rent it
