BLACKFISH
-
Blackfish Saw this film late last week and have been unable to stop thinking about the content since. :sad: :sad: :sad:
-
I didn't hear of it until you posted this and I happened to see a Peta facebook post mentioning it. Is it on DVD now and does it have a pal or region free release? I watched the trailer and would like to see it. I can imagine it would be upsetting
-
Hi, Yes, Blackfish is currently available on DVD (PAL/Region 2) and available for pre-order on Blu-ray, released on the 11th of November. This film is also available for download at iTunes if you prefer. http://blackfishmovie.com/ Anita

Thanks Anita, I'll see if I can find it locally. It looks like something to learn a lot from.

I saw it the first time it was shown, and it just made me cry and I was so MAD about the way they treat the animals and the trainers. They are a bunch of liars who are so greedy they are willing to do anything to make a dollar. It showed Tillicum (sp?) the 'killer whale' who killed the trainers because he has been held captive for over 40 years now. He is isolated and is so miserable he just floats lifelessly in a tank alone. Last week The Barenaked Ladies cancelled their concert at SeaWorld and today I heard Willie Nelson cancelled his concert there. EVERYONE SHOULD BOYCOTT SEAWORLD! Let the beautiful sea creatures go free or to a real animal sanctuary to live a peaceful life. Amen.
-
yes boycott seaworld and boycott the abuse and murder of all sealife as well. abuse and murder of one type is just as bad as the other.
-
Another band cancels show at SeaWorld! I just saw on the news today that HEART (Ann and Nancy Wilson) have cancelled their show at Sea World due to the evil abuse revealed on the Blackfish special!
-
More artists to cancel shows at Sea World: REO Speedwagon, Trisha Yearwood, and Cheap Trick! http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-12-09/seaworld-to-stick-with-concerts-as-acts-cancel-citing-orca-movie.html I need to find the petition to sign to keep the Sea World float out of the Rose Bowl Parade!

Triplets Love Paul:

If we could make Sir Paul sing this, only once, imagine what would happen... Blackfish swimming in the dead of night Take these curled fins and learn to fly All your life You were only waiting for this moment to arise Blackfish swimming in the dead of night Take these sunken eyes and learn to see all your life you were only waiting for this moment to be free Blackfish swim, Blackfish swim Into the light of the dark black night.

nothing would happen because 99% of you don't even listen when he already sings about, narrates a documentary about, and speaks publicly about 'GO VEG' for years and years so if his own fans won't listen to that, what to speak of anyone listening to anything regarding any other related message of rights for any specific animal?

That is a great idea. Your new lyrics made me tear up. Since Paul owns some fancy penthouse place near Tampa somewhere, which is near Orlando...why doesn't he consider putting on a concert to FREE THE ORCAS? I am sure a lot of all star musicians would help out. oh, and the background screens at the concert could show Tillikum the orca, helplessly floating in his tank as he slowly dies. And other film of orcas being hurt and captured, against the theme of the wild orcas swimming FREE and happy in the WILD!

Hi! Welcome to the message board! A very thoughtful message, thanks so much for posting!

YES! Martina McBride is the latest musician to cancel concert at Sea World! FREE TILLY! and all his friends!

I finally got to watch this on DVD this week. I agree that Killer Whales should not be forced to constantly perform shows and it's clear that they(Seaworld) are covering up many of the past accidents/incidents they had between the Trainers and the Whales. However, it does feel a bit bias as Seaworld has stated, in my opinion, because they don't seek out too many sources to support Seaworld(even if SeaWorld declined to participate) or the benefits(if any) of Whales in captivity.
-
Anyone with a education in Biology can tell you it is cruel and insane to keep these beautiful creatures in captivity. SeaWorld is nothing but a for profit empire of evil. There is not one scientist in their right mind that can take the side of what you see and don't see behind closed cages at SeaWorld. God Bless those suffering Creatures.

well this is certainly disappointing http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/seaworld-may-be-bouncing-back-from-blackfish-backlash/ar-BBkMJzH?ocid=HPCDHP

Well finally Tilikum will be free from the abusers at SeaHell, I mean SeaWorld. Prayers for Tilikums precious soul.️ From TakePart.com Tilikum, SeaWorld's Notorious Killer Whale, Is Near Death: The 35-year-old orca, taken from his mother at the age of two, killed three people during his years of captivity, galvanizing animal activists against the company. http://tak.pt/i/Vh7i5KWQ *there should be no more SeaHells!

Tilikum has passed away. http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/06/us/sea-world-orca-tilikum-dies/

That's so sad... Hopefully there's a big ocean in heaven where he's swimming peacefully now I'd like to think there is anyway... Saw the movie is on YouTube, to download or purchase, if anyone wants to see it
