Miscellaneous Movie Musings the Sequel

[Gemini Cricket]

You know, I'd like to take this moment in the MMMtS thread to state officially that I hate the new environment friendly packaging of DVDs. Basically, it's a regular plastic DVD box with the recycling logo cut out of it leaving the box flimsy and not so easy to close and also seems to make it cave in on itself.

I'm not a big recycler. Never was. I do it because it's PC. But I'm not convinced that recycling is all that. I mean, in Hawai'i, the recycling apparently goes to the same place the rest of the trash does: to the dump. Which means that the landfill that's being created will have huge pockets of plastic and cardboard and tree cuttings instead of having it spaced evenly across the landfill which I'm thinking will cause the mountain created to be less stable. That's my own cockamamie reasoning and not based on any sort of fact. Not only that but products made with recycled material are more expensive. If they are reusing materials that already exist, then why is it more expensive? Anyway, I could go on for days and I only mean it halfheartedly and most likely am railing against it because people are so adamant about recycling in that if you don't do it you are some sort of demon spawn pirate terrorist.

That being said, I reiterate: I hate the new DVD boxes.
