Is there any real reason to have "Points of Interest"?
- Thorns Among Our Leaves 22:20, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)
The idea of the things under "
trivia
points of interest" is to link to other articles that explain things people might be curious about.
For example I didn't know what a "boondoggle" was before I saw the movie, and other people someone might be curious about the weapon he finds. ---
Napoleon is bright?
Why does the article call Napoleon "bright"? I see no evidence of this. In fact I think Napoleon is supposed to be one of the not-smart nerds, like a Milhouse instead of a Lisa Simpson.
Agreed, there is nothing in the movie to indicate that he is particularly bright.
Removed 'bright' from his description.
(He's a Gork!) Crowstar 00:58, 16 August 2007 (UTC) I would say that recognizing the various defects in milk(in the FFA scene) by taste indicates a developed intelligence, or at least hunger for knowledge. He also has an aptitude for elaborate lies and improvisation, as with his "current event" about the loch ness monster(if not effective execution) and his sudden decision to dance in lieu of a "skit" for Pedro's election platform is indicative of the "risk-taking" tendency displayed in high-IQ males. Indeed, I believe the entire movie hinges on Napoleon's intelligence and grandiose creativity despite his extreme physical and social awkwardness and it was one of the things that audiences enjoyed about the film.
Black noun/adjective
This comment by IP 172.128.238.35 moved from article: On this page where LaFawnduh Lucas is referred to as "a black" assuming the noun tense I think that is inappropriate. I believe it would be more appropriate to identify her as "black" or a "black female" in that it describes her as she's viewed by others but not necesarily "what she is". Hope that makes sense.
Your site rocks.
- I've changed it to "She is tall, stylish and black" so now it's an adjective not a noun, I think that's what you want. Feel free to change it yourself. Kappa 07:22, 20 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Mormon food saving
A user removed a phrase saying that Mormons keep a two year supply of food for the last days on the grounds that this isn't necessarily why Mormons keep a two year supply of food. I have returned the phrase with the following support from President Ezra Taft Benson.
"Those families will be fortunate who, in the last days, have an adequate supply of food" -- Ezra Taft Benson, "Prepare for the Days of Tribulation"
I did not mean to say that Mormons do not believe in having a two-year supply of food "for the last days" but, that that is not the only reason that they keep a two-year supply. Muj0
That may be true, but most evidence suggests that other reasons Mormons give for saving up a two years supply of food were developed later.
Someone else deleted the cheese block reference entirely saying that, "big blocks of cheese are a southern Idaho thing, not a mormonism thing"
I don't disagree with the statement that big blocks of cheese are a "southern Idaho thing", but it is narrow minded to believe that keeping large supplies of cheese cannot be present in more than one cultural group. One could even argue that there is no difference between a "southern Idaho thing" and a "Mormonism thing".
I deleted the parenthetical that said that the large block of cheese could be a characteristic of "Southern Idaho" culture rather than mormon culture. I think that is like saying that wearing surf clothing is a part of Anaheim culture and not Southern Californian. Southern Idaho is frequenlty refered to as "Northern Utah" and its inhabitants are overwhelmingly Mormon. There is no "southern Idaho culture" that is distinct from its greater Wasatch Front Mormon context.
Yes there is. You're obviously not familiar with the Cache Valley economy. The whole reason it's a Southern Idaho thing (or more specifically a Cache Valley thing) is because of the HUGE dairy economy. I can get tons of cheese in this area for dirt cheap, because dairy products are locally made. This is not the case for most other predomantly Mormon areas, such as Utah county, SLC, Mesa, Las Vegas, etc. Besides, I've never heard of anyone stocking their two years supply with cheese.
Three points in response:
1) 80% of the population of Cache Valley lives in the state of Utah. http://imnh.isu.edu/digitalatlas/geog/rrt/part4/chp14/95.htm. I am absolutley famliar with the dairy culture of Cache Valley.
2) The following is taken from one of many "provident living" food storage websites
"You can also purchase large blocks of high-quality cheese at the BYU dairy for a reasonable price. Buy in bulk (10-20 lbs) and you'll save a lot. Shred the cheese all at once, and freeze in small packets; it thaws very quickly, and is handy for salads, sandwiches, tacos, enchiladas, topping soups, etc." http://www.hashworks.com/foodstorage.htm
"For those with a large freezer or a large family, 5-pound blocks of cheese, 10-pound packages of frozen hamburgers and large quantities of frozen vegetables are often good buys. If the you-know-what hits the fan, you'll just have to eat alot of hamburgers for the first day or two." http://www.survival-center.com/guide/afford.htm
3) This is taken from a "recovering Mormon" website and indicates the ubiquity of the large block of cheese in Mormondom genrally. I have spoken with many non-Cache Valley Mormons about the large-block-of cheese phenomenon and I believe it extends far beyond the dairy capital of Cache Valley:
In Reply to: Large famlies = indirect child abuse. posted by fallen angel on February 04, 1999 at 16:35:59:
My mom always used to tell me she believed that if two people live the gospel and follow the commandments (wow), Heavenly Father would provide the rest.
Consider this...
"My parents had five children before my dad graduated from BYU. No job, nothin'. Just Saturday's at the Farm shoveling shit and lots of wonderful beans from Deseret Industries that mom would cook for hours and hours and we would dine on for days afterward. Powdered milk and big hard blocks of cheese that I could never cut to eat, and NO SNACKING. A stolen bowl of generic cereal would earn you a swift smack. There was never, ever, enough."
"How fucking ridiculous and irresponsible can two people be to bring children, count 'em FIVE children, into the world that they had no way of supporting? Even sicker is the fact that there are many "good" Mormon families out there just like mine."
"I agree with Fallen on her point, and I believe this "the Lord will provide" mentality and the reality of an oversized family absolutely winds up as abuse, indirect or not, to the children."

Idaho state commendation of the creators of the film. This seems worth putting somewhere.

"Controversial" timeframe
Who in the world "contests" the time setting of the movie? There would be too many anachronisms for it to be any time but the present. Obviously, Preston is very culturally backward, but I think there were enough incontrovertible elements in the movie that the theory that it took place in the past is not really reasonable. The only evidence given in the article is the '70s clothing and an old VCR, but there is a mountain of evidence supporting the fact that the movie takes place in a contemporary setting, including not least of all, the ID card that says 2004-2005! Is there anyone here who actually believes the movie is supposed to have taken place in the past? Nohat 08:10, 4 May 2005 (UTC)
I agree, the town's probebly just really backwards. The cooler kids put on the Backstreet Boys, because they're more up to date than the rest of the school (Obviously not, that up to date). And Napo
