@leexag Okay, I agree there is no 'fair and unfair' in nature, but killing animals for sport to put their heads on our walls is just sick. Animals kill to eat, we sometimes kill to eat, even though humans really don't need to eat meat. Guns should be used only for protection, not for killing animals for fun, or murdering people, or fighting wars. Guns go both ways, for good, and for bad, and lately, they're being used for the bad.
Im born and lived in USSR and always been vegetarian, no problems :) lots of russian and ukranian speciallities of vegetarian cuisine. Vareniki, pure, salaty, blinchiki, aladushki, everything :)
@rocker22496 They aren't vegetarians because they CAN'T be. They'll get sick, and even die if they eat anything but meat. It's not part of their system. WE on the other hand, CAN eat things besides meat.
See, with hunting, a human hunting a deer is an unfair advantage. Because we have guns. If humans were to live in the wild, with nothing but their own bare hands, no guns, we'd have to live off fruits, and wouldn't be able to kill animals.
@Bookcat16 but guns weren't granted to us by some extra-terrestrial power. We made guns, from the materials we extracted from the environment. There is no "fair and unfair" in nature. Tiger has an advantage in weight, speed and claws - would you call that "unfair"? we have advantage in our uncanny ability to modify our environment to suit our needs.
@leexag I agree that there is no 'fair and unfair' in nature, but humans have the capacity--and I think any decent person would agree the responsibility--to be ethical. Ethics demand that we not cause unnecessary harm to others. If we live by the "laws of nature" then it's acceptable to kill, rape, steal, and do whatever we like to others. Humans, because of our intellect, can move beyond this Hobbesian nightmare to reduce suffering for all with the capacity to experience it.
Actually i both love the taste and being in the presence of a living animal... it makes me sad when I think of an animal dying. I just like the taste to much for that to influence what I eat.
marcluc1988~ i know! i met this guy once who said vegetarians would die within 5-10 years of becoming one. i switched in 05, so i'm a little nervous.NOT! these ppl are so stupid~with their supposed facts. they're just mad, cuz they know they're wrong.
OH DAMN! this is exactly what it's like when i order ANYWHERE!!! "& what about the sausage?" "what's wrong with you?" i usually end up having to say "i'll have a salad and water" ~ eddie murphy reference, for those of you who don't know~ you betta ask somebody. a potato, is what this guy ends up with. it figures. when will this world realize EVERYONE'S NOT THE SAME???
fuck vegetarians,humans are meant to eat animal meat.If they were not they would get sick of it (like canibals do). I love animals and i dont eat wild animals (deer,bears,rabbits,etc.),but domesticated animals are to be eaten.
This reminds me of when I became a vegetarian. My parents were very supportive, but they had a hard time realizing that vegetarians don't eat fish, sasuage and hamburgers.
I guess the only people who will understand all the references in this movie are those who lived in Eastern Europe, especially USSR. I was laughing my ass off when i was watching it. For most of the N. Americans it won't look as funny. I love this movie, really do. It captured so well that Soviet mentality
@pastamandjinka Animal cruelty isn't something to laugh over! And i fail to see the humor in 'fuck vegetarians'! And if i didn't have a sense of humor, i wouldn't watch America's Funniest Home Videos almost every day. (which i do)
@Sockr44e Fuck u! Have you seen the movie 'Food Inc.'? Then you'll see how cows, chickens, pigs, (chickens mostly) and turkeys are tortured all their lives. they make them practically beg to be slaughtered. That's why vegetarians are who they are! Animals have as much right as you do, you fucking son of a bitch! ok, if i say 'bitch' I'm making all the female dogs in the world feel bad. Animals are tortured and neglected every day and all u care about is having a slice of bacon on ur plate!
@Bookcat16 I don't think that domesticated animals should be killed but as for wild animals.... survival of the fittest. us killing a deer is like a lion pouncing on a gazelle. You don't see any lions being vegetarians do ya? Didn't think so?
@rocker22496 If we live by the "laws of nature" then it's acceptable to kill, rape, steal, and do whatever we like to others. Humans, because of our intellect, can move beyond this Hobbesian nightmare to reduce suffering for all with the capacity to experience it. Some (though they're a numeric minority) animals kill other animals. Some animals rape other animals as well...does that mean rape should be acceptable in society? Of course not--let's not look to other animals for ethics
Lol. Awesome movie. Im glad somebody made a movie like this.There should be more like this. Russian culture is awesome & almost opposite to American culture.
as austrian, i went to ukraine 2 times... have to say that the ukrainian cuisine is excellent, but of course, vegetarian dishes are not very common there;-) and maybe thats the reason why I like the ukrainian people/culture that much...
I love this scene. I'm a vegan and it's already hard to explain to people in the United States. I can't imagine trying to eat in a place like Ukraine. I would never succumb to animal products even if it were insulting, because I find eating meat and animal products insulting. Oh well! :)
This is the reality in most of the world. Vegetarians usually confuse or insult people by refusing their food. Very few places are vegetarian-friendly. It's a choice that people in extremely wealthy countries can make. Also, great movie.
@AlainWinthrope That's part of the population of one country. Doesn't change the fact that for most people in most places, refusing to eat meat is not a consideration or an option. I'm not saying that its a problem to be vegetarian, but you can't go into someone's home in places I've been in Latin America and Central Asia and say, "no thanks, I don't eat meat." People will be offended. But I know, you're too superior and important to be bothered with such barbarians.
@Zayandeh38 If that is the case, then why don't wealthy Indian people immediately turn meat-eater? Maybe it's because they are vegetarian by CHOICE and not just because of having or not having money!
@lewisfrom1995 Why don't you eat meat? I'm vegan and I don't think animals should be used as objects which is exactly what humans do with them. It's totally unnecessary despite what the meat industry lies say. I've not eaten any meat for 35 years and I'm still healthy and.....ALIVE!
@casperado666 Yes it is, but there is a lot of meat in Slavic cooking. So it makes sense that they would be confused by a vegetarian. I know my Russian friends had no clue.
@RazelG yes of course. but imeant that there are many other vegetarian dishes, like vareniki with cheese and sour cream or borsh (with pampushki, garlic and a lot of sour cream) which are typical for Ukraine and which don't contain any meat. damn, just talking about that makes me wanna go back to odessa! mmmmm
But actually the best dish my grandma does are pig-ribs fried and subsequently coocked with plums. She does that with 3 fat types and adds abit sugar. God that tastes like heaven.
@casperado666 until I have actually been to your country, I would never judge This is about making fun of a vegetarian, and i have been there! Cheers!
@19dec1981 Oooh, I get it. You actually studied geography, so now everyone else (especially us vile Americans) are morons for not knowing as much about it, as a guy who studied it. Right?
thats just shows how ignorant you are. you dont have to know details about every country and all that. but i think its pretty decent to know where a country is located so if i would give you a map to point ukraine you wont look for it in south america.
i think every person that regards him/her with a bit of intelligence should have BASIC geography skills
@chechezluvsgd actually yeah, my mom used to put it in all kinds of dishes, also parsley is very common. We usually put a bit of it on boiled potatoes (not mashed, just like in this scene), on fried meat (steaks etc) or also into salads. It's one of the cheapest and most common herbs in Ukraine.
I need to see this again. When I saw it I was like, in the third or fourth or fifth grade. I loved it even then. I think I'd understand it better now, though.
I can't understand why your teacher would show this movie to third-graders. It's very sad and painful to watch about a horrible subject (even though it's a rich, beautiful movie).
It doesnt distort any perception :) this scene reminds me of old times back in my country.. You come to the store and the sales lady looks at you with expression "what the fuck do you need here" :D
This film distorts perception of Ukraine similarly as Borat distorts perception of Kazakhstan... In actual fact to a 90% film it was taken off outside Ukraine
the thing that i dont understand about this clip is that they arent speaking ukrainian they are speaking russian. i hear no ukranian accent whatsoever. btw anyone know what the guy in glasses real name is? hes adorable! :-D
In Ukraine, it is not uncommon for people to speak Russian, because of the take over of the USSR in the past. And the main character with the glasses is Elijah Wood (it's hard to believe but yea)
Where are you from? Do you know what the USSR is? The Ukraine used to be 1 with Russia... More than half the country is straight Russian these days, not to mention the generations that were born under Russian rule are coming of age now. Of course they are speaking Russian.
its not THE ukraine, its just Ukraine, and theyre speaking Ukrainian, it has definate russian influence, more so than it was 50-60 years ago, but its Ukrainian, or at least modern Ukrainian
Dude, I'm from Ukraine. I speak both Russian and Ukrainian. I can assure you the language they are speaking is Russian. There's East Ukraine and there is West Ukraine. The East speaks mostly Russian while the West speaks Ukrainian.
it's russian. BUT when the grandfather says to jonathan "dobro pozhalovat' do ukrainy", that's ukrainian. probably on purpose, since he's welcoming him to ukraine.
I was rigid to watch this section of the cellulite interpretation of the book! I now feel oblongated to impose a premium 69 on my keyboard.

I need to see this again. When I saw it I was like, in the third or fourth or fifth grade. I loved it even then. I think I'd understand it better now, though.

I can't understand why your teacher would show this movie to third-graders. It's very sad and painful to watch about a horrible subject (even though it's a rich, beautiful movie).

It doesnt distort any perception :) this scene reminds me of old times back in my country.. You come to the store and the sales lady looks at you with expression "what the fuck do you need here" :D

This film distorts perception of Ukraine similarly as Borat distorts perception of Kazakhstan... In actual fact to a 90% film it was taken off outside Ukraine

I think it is meant to be an american's view of Ukraine, how he sees the things that are happening to him and his surroundings...

the thing that i dont understand about this clip is that they arent speaking ukrainian they are speaking russian. i hear no ukranian accent whatsoever. btw anyone know what the guy in glasses real name is? hes adorable! :-D

In Ukraine, it is not uncommon for people to speak Russian, because of the take over of the USSR in the past. And the main character with the glasses is Elijah Wood (it's hard to believe but yea)

oh, sorry, i didnt know.. btw thanks for letting me know that guys name.. hes quite adorable

Where are you from? Do you know what the USSR is? The Ukraine used to be 1 with Russia... More than half the country is straight Russian these days, not to mention the generations that were born under Russian rule are coming of age now. Of course they are speaking Russian.

its not THE ukraine, its just Ukraine, and theyre speaking Ukrainian, it has definate russian influence, more so than it was 50-60 years ago, but its Ukrainian, or at least modern Ukrainian

They're not speaking Ukrainian, they're speaking Russian.
lilpiska 2 years ago
no its Ukrainian, its just HEAVILY Russian influenced, its Odessa (allegedly) so theres going to be alot more russian influence than if it were kiev
NapoleanXV 2 years ago
Dude, I'm from Ukraine. I speak both Russian and Ukrainian. I can assure you the language they are speaking is Russian. There's East Ukraine and there is West Ukraine. The East speaks mostly Russian while the West speaks Ukrainian.

it's russian. BUT when the grandfather says to jonathan "dobro pozhalovat' do ukrainy", that's ukrainian. probably on purpose, since he's welcoming him to ukraine.
