What I am trying to do: Record any instances of violence against animals or appearances of meat in movies and tv shows so that people with sensitivities around those subjects are not surprised. I personally have a phobia of meat, so for anyone else like me this tool might be useful. At the very least it's for me, and if it's not for you or if you think it's odd I'm doing this, I'm sorry to tell you that I don't care.
What I am not trying to do: Say violence against animals should never be shown on screen. As long as no animals were actually harmed in the making of the movie, art should be allowed to be uncomfortable. This blog exists to put content warnings under movies and tv shows.
What I will do: Log any time an animal appears to be endangered, harmed, or killed on screen, or meat is shown, while trying not to spoil anything. If something is a spoiler, it will be put under a 'Read More' section with a 'Spoilers!' line of text above it.
What I will not do: Watch movies upon request. Please don't comment on a post with something like 'Can you watch XXX?'. Unfortunately I probably won't have access to a lot of streaming services. If I forgot something in a log though, you're always welcome to point that out.
Do not reblog or comment on this blog with statements like "this movie has massacres of humans yet this post only mentions a hot dog being eaten" or something similar. Claiming I am devaluing human life by bringing attention to how animals are harmed in cinema is an argument I've had brought against me before, and it is a dishonest one.
