Looks really good, hope it's playing in my small town theater :)

VeggieGrettie, are you familiar with the plight of wild animals trained to do circus tricks in entertainment? If not, I would encourage you to look up elephants being trained by 'bullhooks' and the idle, sad lives of captive animals before seeing 'Water for Elephants'. I understand that the book's narrative is around a cruel circus trainer, and how mean he is, but the actual elepahnt in the movie probably suffers to tell this story.

Hi MIchelle Gonzalez and VeggieGrettie,  

Michelle, while it's good that ' Water For Elephants' shows the cruelty associated with animal circuses, and will open people's eyes to that, don't foget that the elephant used in this movie had to endure the horrific torture that is necessary to make wild animals do tricks (like handstands, headstands, etc). As kindlifers, I don't think we should support movies like this that exploit individual animals (even if it is to document exploitation). I urge everyone to please google 'bullhooks' (that breaks an elephant's spirit in physically and mentally horrific ways) and watch the 'Entertainment' section in the film 'Earthlings' if you have not already. 

The movie" Win Win" looks really cute, almost like Juno; real, with great dialog. Dialog can make or break a movie. I have no desire to see "Water for Elephants" , unless it was to wear my elephant cruelty shirt I got from PETA and protest.

Clueless! Stil a fav. Amy Heckerling is a genius!  AND the lead actress wasn't so bad either;)

Win Win is a fantastic movie!  So funny and the characters are so real and true.  It's not funny, but everyone should rent the writer/directors previous film the Visitor.  Human rights are important too.

Such a great movie!  A perfect way to spend a Sunday!

I really want to see win win, it looks like a fun-filled film :)  I wouldn't go see Water for Elephants if you paid my rent for a year.  I am shocked that Reese Witherspoon took the role.  She is now on my black list.
