Pangea Day

I managed to watch Pangea Day online! Woohoo!
I missed the first few minutes, but saw the rest, even had popcorn to eat.

Some of the movies were great, some were good. Others were...well, OK.

The one about Combatants for Peace (check them out at www.combatantsforpeace.org)is pretty cool. The comments after the film by one of the participants were even more wrenching than the film.

The only critique is that there was too much chatter between films. Too many celebrities (or people who think they are celebrities) and some of the music seemed gratuitous.

The goal of promoting peace seems pretty cool and this could become a regularly occurring event.

The movies will be available online for a while. In fact more movies than were shown during the 4 hour event, will be available online. I intend to watch them all.
