“An Inconvenient Truth.” This documentary cast Hollywood’s spotlight on the infamous threat of Global Warming, bringing the controversial issue to the nation’s forefront; as if you didn’t know. Ominous statistics, shocking photos and Al Gore’s southern charm single-handedly gave the issue of climate change the political boost necessary to rally support throughout the country, and put serious pressure on Capitol Hill to help America go green. Really and truly this movie may shape the future of our planet.
Here, my friends, is the real inconvenient truth: it’s a horrible date movie. Hands down, it’s probably the worst thing you could watch. Now, you maybe be thinking to yourself, “Stuart, why would you say such a thing?” I will tell you.
I wouldn’t want to even begin to fathom the number of pregnancies due to this film. After about fifteen minutes of pie charts and bar graphs, any couple will look for alternative activities; alternative stimulation, if you will. One thing leads to another and nine months later baby Albert is on the way. On the other hand, nothing kills my libido like a solid documentary. The CO2 statistics (summited only by Mr. Gore’s cherry picker) stand tall enough to humble even the most confident of men, and that polar bear without an iceberg always makes me tear. The only outcome is an inevitable awkwardness between two people. So do the right thing, don’t watch this movie on a date. Your social life as you know it may lie in the balance.
