There’s been a lot of talk about the end of the world recently.  In fact, a lot of people seem to be convinced that the world is going to end sometime later today. In the face of such negativity, it seems to me that we need to celebrate movies that remind us why we even bother to wake up in the morning and leave our homes.

One such movie is the 2008 epic Birdemic: Shock and Terror.  While the film itself deals with what happens when a bunch of birds go on a rampage, it still finds the time to highlight some of the good things about life.

Today, I want to highlight two scenes that I love from Birdemic.

In this first one, we’re reminded that, even in bad economic times, the corporate life can be a rewarding one.

This second scene celebrates the mystery of love and the excitement of flirtation.

And, just because I love you, here’s a bonus scene from a totally unrelated movie!

(That movie, by the way, was The Room.)
