Has anyone seen this film yet? It's in our cinema's here now, though I haven't seen it as yet. For those who haven't seen it yet, the lowdown is; filmmaker Morgan Spurlock, creates a film about him living on nothing but McDonald's food for an entire month with three simple rules:1) No options: he could only eat what was available over the counter (water included!) 2) No supersizing unless offered 3) No excuses: he had to eat every item on the menu at least once. Apparently; quote:
It all adds up to a fat food bill, harrowing visits to the doctor, and compelling viewing for anyone who's ever wondered if man could live on fast food alone.
Sure would be interesting to watch! (I don't work for the film makers or Maccy D's - honest!

Yick - I know.
I haven't seen it, but from what I understand about half way through his Doc tells him to stop or he'll end up dead.I barely eat it anymore. We got MickeyD's on Friday and I had an half-day stomach ache as a result. IP: Logged |
