Are you stoked or what Mikey?!

Seriously though it sounds right up your alley;
" 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."
I bet you'll cry.

Damn straight I'm excited C. I mentioned this in the last zombie thread. I can't bloody wait for it to come out. My mates suggested I go dressed as a penguin, which would be pretty funny I guess, if slightly insane.
They also said I should go to the popcorn counter and ask for some fish.
There is no doubt this film will be the best film EVER!

| I hope it opens with Morgan Freeman telling us "No one would of believed in the early years of the 21st century that our world was being watched by intelligences greater than our own.", and ends with him saying "Ernest Hemingway once wrote 'The world is a fine place, and worth fighting for.' I agree with the second part." :) |

Saw it last weekend. The penguin foreplay was pretty damn steamy.

I frickin love them Toby. They are, along with monkeys, the greatest creatures on this planet.
I want them to meet each other, but I am not sure how I can bring about this holy union.

the 4th of July weekend was a penguin weekend for me. Saw March of the Penguins Sunday with my son, then watched the penguin masterminds in Madagascar with him on Monday. Love the hypnotizing penguin part "you didn't see anything" in the trailer to Madagascar.
It is truly amazing that real penguins ever have baby penguins. Our dallas aquarium has about eight baby penguins that are about the funniest/cutest little creatures I've ever seen. The smell, now that is a different subject.

talking leads to touching.
touching leads to sex.
and then there is no mystery left.
it's bad news, mike, it's bad news. |

Very good Toby, very good.
I just hope they do not end up as portions for foxes though.

HPM, I saw this movie tonight and you must do so immediately, as well as buy it when it comes out on DVD.
I'm not even a penguin person, yet it stirred my soul. The penguins are to ooh and aahh over, plus the underwater scenes are especially enchanting.
Just brace yourself -- it features raw, naked penguin-on-penguin sex, during which I had to avert my gaze away from the steamy screen and onto my bag of popcorn.

| Everyone's facinated by wildlife documentaries, myself included. I suppose it's because it's a glimpse into the natural world that seems almost like fantasy, er, but it's real!! :) |

| Even as a kid I was always fascinated by the way two penguins would face each other and do their little conversational head movements. Penguin sex huh? Hopefully there is no Ron Jeremy penguin in the movie |

That's because the penguin sex is hotter than the sex in Amelie!

Went to see it yesterday with the kidlees.
You know with how many penguins die on the journey and eggs and chicks that don't make it, I'm amazed that there are any penguins.
The courtship was really sweet.

I was thinking the same thing - unless Emperor penguins can have more than one baby at a time..the population must be steadily decreasing every year?
Animals think...They're pretty smart!
Shit on the ground...See in the dark! |

it's not a definate... b/c the average lifespan of the penguin is more than one year... so they can have XX babies in a lifetime but if you factor in environmental stuff...and other factors yes that could be the case.
and yes those courtship scenes are so sweet like when they are nuzzling ;)

I bet your husband would really like it. Honestly, I don't know anyone who doesn't.
What I think this movie did such a great job of showing is the sacerfices parents make for kids. Also the sweet and tender side and very hard survivalist sides of both genders. It really brought out a more sensitive side of the typical stereo type of male animals.

All you romantics are forgetting that, according to the movie, penguins stay with their mate for a year and then it's hasta la vista baby, I'm on to the next penguin.

See what I'm getting at, C? There was a lot of loose and fast sex on that there tundra, wasn't there? And to the last one they were naked.
That movie should have been R-17.

Brilliant. I hope this is a feature of the next Pro Evolution Soccer game.
Some excellent goals in that by the way.
