Show Biz Animals

As i watched The Myth (2 stars je kot, may be less), my heart was touched not by the movie but by the animal stunts in the movie. Yeah, I know, in the movie no cruelty against animals on the set. However, when u watched the movie it seems almost so real the horses been beaten, shot, killed, etc. Jatuh-jatuh kuda tu. Sedih rasanya. Kesian la.

The same feeling goes to while watching the Lord Of The Rings, animals mainly horses are been used. Kesian gak tgk how the animal coach kerah and trained those animals. Yes, I know, no cruelty on the set but then how sure are u on that? Especially part perang naik kuda. Kesian kan tengok horses jatuh-jatuh. Ish... kesian.

Bergenang air mata watched Godzilla (years ago). Not because it was a sad movie. If u remembered, at the end men won against Godzilla. Sedih tengok Godzilla been attacked. Tengok camna mother instinct of Godzilla, protects her eggs (Ok, don't get me started on human low morality bila depa buang anak, total cruelty). Kesian Godzilla tu. Eventhough, mana ader Godzilla exists, but still it disturbed me.

Honestly, I don't watched Free Willy. Sebab kesian tengok dolphin tu. I know it was a happy ending, still the process nak be happy tu kinda disturbed me. Kesian. Though, the Willy was graphically created, looks real to me and.... kesian lagi. In real life are we that cruel? Rasanya macam ye je, sbb if u watched documentary, banyak tunjuk hunters buru animals, killing sharks, whales, etc.

Most movies about animals, I don't watched it. Jaws, did not watched it, Deep Blue Sea, nope, did not watched it. Lagi apa yek? Even citer Bidasari, I rasa tak patut bagi ikan tu tercuap-cuap bila tak de air. Kesian. Kuda Puteri Gunung Ledang pun sakit and mati. Not on the set la. After been a star mati. Tengok Lion King pun I rasa sedih. Cartoon pun I can be emotional. Menangis tengok bila bapa Simba mati. Ish tu cartoon, kalau real animals on the set, lagi la sedih. Nasib tak tahap meraung. Itu kes teruk kalau camtu. Might as well, I don't watch any movie or TV program. Hehehehe. Tetiba teringat Ewoks. Ish sedih gak tu bila rumah meka terbakar... or I'm confused with other story? U guys ingatkan Ewoks? Emmm...

I don't watch Ananconda. Tak de hati pun. Not because sedih for the ananconda, but more towards geli. It's a snake! Goosebumps all over. Ish, if I'm in Fear Factor, depa tunjuk je ular, I'm out of there baby. Ish.... cannot tolerate with that. Goosebumps goosebumps....

Usually at the end of the credits, mesti tunjuk 'No animals was hurt or injured during the making of the movie or on location'. Boleh percaya ke? Of course they have to train the animals kan? The animals mesti work hard. May be cruelty is a strong word, not the correct term. Tapi kesian la binatang ni. Kalau tengok mata depa, berair jek mata those animals. Macam plead for help. 'Help Me', 'Save Me'. Ala-ala dalam Tru Calling. Hehehe

Tapi kalau citer animals cute, tengok gak. Macam Stuart Little, geram tengok cute cats. Lassie pun tengok gak. Cute and adorable movies tengok laa. Animals turn wild and bad, tu yang sedih. Tak tengok. Isn't it because of us they turn bad?

Kesimpulannya, I just can't bare to watch movies with animals mati. As if, those animals mati sungguh-sungguh. Sedih laa... Kesian...

Quiz: Berapa kali I use the word 'kesian'? :D

    wow...didnt know that u're that emotional wan....i mean , when it comes to animals...well, to tell u the truth, i guess, i have the same feeling too towards those animals...tapi takat horses je kut..bab2 lain takde perasaan....but the thing that will get to me the most is nature itself...kalau nengok Nat. geo. tu...sedih , especially bab kawan ni makan kawan tu...animals....kenkadang terpikir, those cameramen...tak "kesian" ke,(there, i used up the word already wan..hehe) ..as if, if i were in their place, nak je pi halau depa dari gaduh2..heheheh...but who are we to stop nature....peace can only be seen in movies/cartoons...
    and talking about animals, i will always think of this word - ...incest ( a word i learnt from wawa during his presentation on the subject)...

    dah melalut dah.....

    btw..mcm mane nak get rid of katak???..tabur garam ker? tu siput kan??

    Hehehe.. bukan dolphin ye aneh? Ingatkan dolphin sbb leh lompat2. Btw, aneh, yang emos tu bukan wan, elly. hehehe. Tp aneh, yg nature tu tak leh nak sedih sangat, sbb mmg dah nature dia. camtu cara meka survive, tapi bab biler binantang kena kerah kat dlm movie tu yg kesian. especially part perang2. kesian la tgk binantng tu keje keras. kalau banyak kali 'cut', kan kesian lagi. depa bukan merasa duit berjuta dollar, unlike actor n actress.

    chup aneh, incest bukan sumbang muhrim ke?
