'Fish Are Friends, Not Food' Contest 'Fish Are Friends, Not Food' Contest

Lately, fish have been gettin’ lots of love on the big screen … from sharks! Seriously, what’s with all the vegetarian sharks all of a sudden? Not that we’re complaining, but there must be a bunch of big-hearted writers in Hollywood who’ve finally realized that fish aren’t floating vegetables.

First there was the blockbuster hit Finding Nemo—you remember that one, right? It’s the story of a little fish named Nemo who gets separated from his father (Marlin) when he’s taken from his home in the Great Barrier Reef. During Marlin’s search for Nemo, he meets three vegetarian sharks with hearts as big as the ocean itself who would never eat fish because “fish are friends, not food!” Sound familiar?

And now, we find ourselves under the sea again in our new fave movie, Shark Tale, starring our new fave vegetarian shark, Lenny. Things are tough for Lenny—who gets his voice from Jack Black—because he comes from a family of mobsters. In fact, his father is “The Godfather” so he has to keep up with the mobster image and hide his vegetarianism from his family. They just wouldn’t understand why he won’t eat his fish friends, let alone help one of them stand up to the shark mob, but that’s just what happens when Lenny teams up with smooth-talkin’ Oscar, who’s played by Will Smith. Rush out and rent it today, or better yet, buy it so you can watch these two finned friends get into all sorts of trouble over and over again. Then ask mom to get you your very own “Fish Are Friends, Not Food” logo tee. And don’t forget to order yourself some “Fish Are Friends, Not Food” stickers, too, so you can spread the word to all your friends!
