Carnage

I've never seen a use of humor in this way to promote veganism, but i sure like it. This film is absurd, but also hilarious! Too bad it's only on BBC iplayer on the UK cause i would spread it in theaters. Simon Amstell is one hell of a guy. So show it to your friends. C'mon, I dare you.

"Like a monk you'd like #x22; was rather uncharacteristic and vulgar. So was assuming everyone wants certain celebrities regardless of whether they are vegan.

A lot of the film was rather redundant, and also flamboyant, painting vegans a little crazy.

Didn't like the lack of responses to certain fallacies, or the scene where the old woman doesn't remember anything, and keeps getting upset over her food being called "It." I thought it would make a lot more sense for someone in her state to simply respond to the absurdity of the free-range argument rather than get stuck on semantics and disbelief that free-range exists. It's obvious that killing an animal is wrong regardless of whether the animal is free-range or not.

All in all I'd prefer to see a sober black comedy concerning veganism, not really this, but it was still quite amusing and had its moments.

This movie balance humor with facts. It challenge the norm, by making "carnivores" the minority. It shows a humor filled theory how the world would take tackle climate change with the help of plant based food. It also take the perspective of how animals feel in the society we live in and express their day-to-day lives with the help of music and art.

People feel judged before a vegan even opens their mouth's. Guilt and annoyance are very common associations with the vegan movement. Here, Simon Amstell, wipes that slate clean. We are all equally mocked and the absurdity creates equality so that we can all relax and watch a simultaneously informative, moving and utterly hilarious film. Whatever you eat you are, without a doubt, in for a treat. It's truly remarkable.

In a Solar-Punk future, the whole world has seen and fixed the problems of animal agriculture from both ethical and ecological perspective, yet a realistic problem, forgiving the ones who once were performing cruel acts arose. The story is about teaching the next generation the norms of the past and how the society overcame it through time.

In the movie, judgement of the young generation upon the old one provides a good parallel with non-vegans who think that the vegans think that they are better than them. It is inspiring and shows it is okay to change opinion when you had a chance to think more deeply and / or encountered with new information.

The info they used until the year the movie was relased is true, so that it starts like a real documentary, which gives it a smooth flow and a good framework for the viewers who never questioned the global food system appropriately.

The rest is fiction of course but it ties the story neatly to the past. It mentions not just the constant positive development but also the struggles the movement encountered in time.

Also, I personally liked the word "carnist" since it normalizes veganism and non-violence and alienates the system based on cruelty and inefficiency. It is not just about changing a word used in daily life. It is about changing the perspective. Imagine ordering a pizza and they asked you "normal or carnist?" instead of "normal or vegan?". So, I appreciate this idea so much.

Overall, I found it as an oasis where we are surrounded by depressive cyber-punk movies.

I suggest this movie for both vegans (to be hopeful) and non-vegans to maybe question their prejudice.
