As they say in Enumclaw: if God didn't want men to have sex with horses, He wouldn't have made them so damn sexy.

Still beating that dead horse?

I haven't seen that much sentimentality on film since the original "Miracle on 34th Street".

#4 Oh behave!

Oh and another thing...this is one of the few visualizations of Fleetwood Mac's Landslide that actually reflects the songs meaning..that of a person worrying about a relationship changing as they age. Unlike all the times it is used in a political context because of the title.

In general I get ticked off about what seems like the random application of famous song titles as movie titles when the film has zero interplay with the themes of the song and its music. American Pie being a famous example.

That screen shot for "Zoo" makes me think of "Gangnam Style."

@12 FTW... Wait. Are people still saying "for the win" in 2013?

I was just shocked that somebody made a Bud commercial so blatantly aimed at 10-year-old girls. Isn't that illegal or something?

@14 Will in Seattle does....

Totally thought about Chalres when this aired.

But hey I wish dude would be in love with me like he was that little clydsdale. He was cute.

Is Zoo available on NetFlix (I'm not currently a member)?

Posted by Phoebe in Wallingford on February 4, 2013 at 8:45 AM

(Oh dear, just as the group was complaining about having FEELINGS from a Budweiser commercial, one of the guy's hollered "I wish I knew how to quit you!" and quickly turned the commercial in a Zoo direction. So yeah, I don't think my brain would've gone there on its own...

Zoo is on Youtube (zoo - the movie) the first part is blocked. Try a vpn. The movie was shot all over the Seattle area. At Hope For Horses, at the Woodinville Riding Academy (since torn down for a catholic church), in Mount Vernon. Two of the horses are also from HFH. One has died and the other is at a Foster (the one on the movie poster). The saga of Pinyon and Tate lives on in thousands of people who have sex with their animals, pimp them out or jump the fence and fuck their neighbors beasties. It is just another version of dominance over the powerless. Zoos pretend they love their animals, make them dependent, feed them, take care of them and use them as they please. Just like a father who has sex with his daughter every night. Thank you daddy.
