A Turtles Tale: Sammy's Adventures

[Arella]

One day I was on netflix looking for Finding Nemo, of course no such luck. Instead a movie came up with little turtles, I love turtles but had never heard of it so I watched it. It was so cute! Not the best animation but still a good movie. It followed the first 50 years of a little green back turtle's life. It had lots of environmentalism (a bit over the top actually) but may be a good movie for performing or mermaid parties! Has anyone seen it?http://mernetwork.com/index/webkit-fake-url://A33D94B8-A027-486B-99B9-CFDA90B8B1C0/Sammy's_Adventures.jpg

I haven't seen it yet, but I'm pretty sure I threw it into my queue on Netflix. Good to hear a review about it, too! You don't really get a sense of the movies in the tiny descriptions they have on there.

It was definitely something I would watch again :)

According to Wikipedia it was released in theaters, but only in Belgium and the UK. Looks pretty good.

I think it's playing at the local Science Center: Turtle Vision (http://www.natsci.org/events/omnisphereshows/index.shtml#TURTLE)

Weird. Turtle Vision 3d looks like has the same characters, but its only 22 minutes long, and I can't find anywhere that says they're related.

"A sea turtle who was hatched in 1959 spends the next 50 years traveling the world while it is being changed by global warming."

Does it bother anyone else when other people try to spoon feed their political agendas? Yes, I believe in global warming. I also believe in global cooling. I think humanity has little to do with either.

When every nature documentary ends with "but then mankind came along and destroyed everything", it seems a bit defeatist.
