So...

Has anyone watched Blackfish?
A documentary about the Orcas and the deaths at SeaWorld.

What were your thoughts of it?
Etc etc.
 
I've not seen it but I was at Sea World in Florida a few years back. Didn't enjoy it one bit. I found it quite sad to see these magnificent beasts in captivity.

If folk want to capture them and then go swimming with them while they do ridiculous little trick for our entertainment and end up getting munched then excuse me but where's the surprise in that.

On top of the I also had a hotdog there with some of that hot pour-over American cheese on it. That f*****' disgusted me as well.
 
Not watched it yet but will do soon. From what I have heard it is a little misleading in the documentary regarding the facts.

While I believe the best place to see such mammals is in the wild and these probably should not be kept in captivity. They have done wonders for understanding Orcas and to help protect them in the wild.
 
Saw it the other night, found it to be pretty good but found it was too aimed at the deaths and not the matter at hand. I was shocked to find what seaworld had been up to secretly, especially with how the orca were captured etc. It really is such a shame that these 5+ ton beauties are locked up, I found it disgusting how Sealand kept them at night and no one decided to report it?!?!?!
Definitely worth watching in my opinion, I'm not really a fan of zoos as I get a little emotional seeing the animals locked up for kids to scream and shout at!

Time for some beer before I carry on moaning!!!!
