Charlie & the Chocolate Factory
WHY:
Because Tim Burton spent six months teaching 200 squirrels to crack hazelnuts, sort them and then load them on to a conveyor belt.
Because it's fun - fun by way of gross overindulgence in candy and chocolate and wicked retribution.
DON'T SEE:
Soylent Green
WHY:
The year is 2020, the ecology is destroyed, people riot for their food chips ... and it's a long, cheesy ride to the punchline.
But if that's what we reduced to, would we mind so much if we still have New Jersey? A little Ranch-flavored powder can work wonders.
(But just to be on the safe side, buy organic, support sustainable practices, and read Jared Diamond's Collapse.)
