Disgusting.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

Don't they eat dogs in Hong Kong? Maybe it's for the snack bar.

You mean you can't hunt dogs?

(I'm sure if there were a pack of wild bears running around in one of our parks you wouldn't complain a bit.)

OK. Let's play "What If?" Save those poor dogs!

Fast forward to the parks opening and Cap'n posts a link to a story that starts "The opening of a new Disney theme park was marred today by the fatal mauling of a two year old girl by a pack of dogs that had been living in the park since it's construction. Lawyers for the girls parents claim the dogs had been being fed by construction workers who built the park. When the workers moved on, the hungry dogs hunted the park, living on garbage. When tourists arrived in the park for the first time today, the hungry dogs descended on the little girl after she got separated from her parents."

MUCH better!

now joe, i think it has to be said that the child was openly taunting the poor dogs and laughing liudly at their protruding ribs before they mauled her. i mean, though really, it's disney and they are the root of all evil today anyway, so more power to those lawyers who are going to suck that heinous corporation clean of every last red cent they have.

now does anyone else have any more information on the rumors that they have the mother caught on security video before the attack slathering the child in bacon grease?

Was the word "literally" necessary? What would the same thread title mean figuratively?

Animation doesn't make it less literal - it makes it fictional.

Perhaps you should look up the word "literal" if you have to ask.

This is ridiculous, once dogs go wild and start running in packs, there is no way for them to become domesticated, and they need to be put to sleep. Rabis and all that. Some people need to get thicker skin, and think about the long term consequences of keeping a pack of 40 wild dogs, who are running in packs and probably killing other creatures for food.

not true. have you ever heard of cesar millan? killing is not the answer and never is. so many here pretend to promote peace when you're talking about people, but when animals come into the picture, it's jokes and sarcasim. how many dogs equal a human life? i guess more than 40.

This thread has majorly managed to creep me out...NO MORE TALKING ABOUT EATING DOGS!!!

esp. in Hong Kong...my grandfather will get upset

But yeah, lemme just say that this quote is hilarious, as if the most SHOCKING thing about Disney killing the dogs is that they've made positive movies about Dogs in the past so it's hypocritical:

"Disney, which produced hit cartoons films such as "101 Dalmatians" and "Lady and the Tramp", and memorable characters such as Goofy and Pluto, said it did not know how many had been put down, although the Post said the figure was around 40."

Dogs don't taste like chicken!

Pugs have a sweet, meaty taste, like a good pork roast. Poodle is stringy and can be dry. St. Bernard is fatty and rich. Chow is delicious with a delicate, almost veal like taste.
I must stop- I'm drooling on the keayboard!

I've always dreamed of opening a restaurant where instead of a lobster tank inside the front door, there is a pen of puppies, and you select the one you want. It's take off to the kitchen and prepared just for you, presented piping hot. I can't think of a good name. "Joe's Hot Dogs" just doesn't give the right feeling. I think maybe "Un Chien- Por vous!" Any ideas?
