if you ate anything in complete excess like he did you should expect to get sick or malnutritioned.. its not like mcdonalds or the fast food industry evil in its own
Well I wasn't hungry after seeing it............... Not as if I really ate fast food..................... Ah well, he should've expected something like that! T'was kinda dumb, but he managed to prove his point..
Agreed. Mc Donald's doesn't shove anything down anyone's throats. I think the movie should make people look at their own behavior and eating habits, and not the industry.
No, the fast food industry IS shoving it down your throat. From the age of 3-4 you see Thousands of ads a year on TV, and a large majority of those ads are for Fast Food Joints and other junk food, so by the time you turn into our teenage years, you have already been brainwashed to think that Junk Food is the best, and you load up on it. Peace and Love, Dan
I sided with McDonalds as soon as I heard about the film; as the guy above said, if you eat any food exclusively, FIVE TIMES A DAY, for that amount of time, you would get ill. Once I saw an interview with the complete **** who made it, I made it my mission to kill him. Unfortunately I was so grossly overweight from eating only doner meat for ten years that I just decided not to bother and watched some TV.
Right, I know I'm in England and advertising is fractionally less prevalent, but I saw probably the same, maybe more sophisticated adverts when I was a kid, and was not brainwashed in any way. My parents didn't take me to McDonalds every day, but when I was old enough to make my own decisions I didn't do it either, and now, guess what: I'm not fat! The truth of it is, most people who are fat are fat because they eat too much crap because they are lazy cunts. Then, when they get health problems, they try and blame the food they ate, rather than themselves for eating it, because they are just generally irresponsible. I have no sympathy, and I have even less sympathy for some prick who tries to make money out of both sides of the equation in the name of "edgy" filmmaking.
I think if people were not requesting it then fast food joints would go out of business... , we are not brainwashed by anything we don't want to be.. If he ate only gourmet food for a month would he be any better of physicaly ?? . why are predominantly good looking people used in advertising , because we have a inbuilt desire from birth to be attracted to good looks .. its realy us not them that set the standards . Eating only fast food makes you ill ... no shit sherlock
It's pretty well put together. It's an excellent expose about how McDonalds in particular markets heavily to children, who can become addicted and obese.
If there is so many adds on american tv, for mcDonalds and other fast foods,if really people make you think "mcDonald" since young age, it can be described as a kind of propaganda...
Well, i was raised here in America though I've lived in other places all over Europe. I think that the amount of advertising is exactly the same. It's a little rediculous that this guy makes it seem like we're being brainwashed since birth. I don't eat fast food that often, I'm not fat and i think this movie is absolutely rediculous.
its just a guy who found away to make money while the country is low carb crazy and weight concious...of course he's gonna spout propaganda...i'm embarassed i go to the same school he went too.
Really, you went to the same school as him?? That's interesting... I agree with you. I feel like SSM is more of a money making scheme than something used to educate the public -- especially when you're totally misinforming the public. I hope this guy's 5 minutes are up soon.
i just went to see morgan spurlock speak last night at my university - they screened the film and then he talked about it a bit. the first thing he brought up was how he's made ~30$ million off of it. what a self-absorbed jackass. then he kept talking in this lispy voice to make fun of things like mcdonald's salads, so i reckon he's a homophobe. the movie was good, but i hate him now.
