The Enviro-wacko crowd is truly sick.

From what I read this was a seriously produced video with a cast of more than 90 and a professional director and the works. I heard the budget was something like $400,000.
This was no little humor thing they threw together, this was supposed to be HUGE. They put a massive amount of effort into this creature. They were proud of this.

Richard Curtis the director of “Four weddings and a funeral” and “Notting Hill”, no less.

1010global's grotesque video is more or less standard left-wing hate fare. These people want mass murder, and the only thing holding them back is that they suspect that without the help of overwhelming military force they may draw the shortest straw. Now, being that these critters are in England, the lefties have no wish for own blood to be shed. They do have an "fruitful" relation with the muslims, though - and they have not so much self-preservation.
The person behind this thing is Franny Armstrong (you'll find her on wikipedia) - she's a well-known filmmaker and she says she got some hi-profile people behind the movie. We'll be watching her and her organizations, and their links and offshoots ;P
However: there is one thing all of us can do. She seems to be something of a shakedown-artist, and you'll find companies lining up to support the 1010global initiative. Boycott would be extremely cool.

As one of the comments mentioned, "This is the kind of extremist, fascistic, totalitarian sh** that we are up against. The powers that be are using 'climate change' to control us."

This was no little humor thing they threw together, this was supposed to be HUGE. They put a massive amount of effort into this creature. They were proud of this.Yes, they were proud of it and offered one of those "Sorry if we offended...." apologies.
From their website...

Sorry.
Today we put up a mini-movie about 10:10 and climate change called 'No Pressure.
With climate change becoming increasingly threatening, and decreasingly talked about in the media, we wanted to find a way to bring this critical issue back into the headlines whilst making people laugh. We were therefore delighted when Britain's leading comedy writer, Richard Curtis - writer of Blackadder, Four Weddings, Notting Hill and many others agreed to write a short film for the 10:10 campaign. Many people found the resulting film extremely funny, but unfortunately some didn't and we sincerely apologise to anybody we have offended.
As a result of these concerns we've taken it off our website. We won't be making any attempt to censor or remove other versions currently in circulation on the internet.
We'd like to thank the 50+ film professionals and 40+ actors and extras and who gave their time and equipment to the film for free. We greatly value your contributions and the tremendous enthusiasm and professionalism you brought to the project.
At 10:10 we're all about trying new and creative ways of getting people to take action on climate change. Unfortunately in this instance we missed the mark. Oh well, we live and learn.
Onwards and upwards,
Franny, Lizzie, Eugenie and the whole 10:10 team

Thanks, sam. Post #12 in that thread is where I found the YouTube link.
Great minds think alike, and so do ours ;-)

and....Black Adder Oh dear, you are correct. I never thought Baldrick was a self-portrayal of the director!
This movie was just one of those "cunning plans" that Baldrick excels in.

I thought the worst part was the classroom scene where the teacher spoke the King’s English as poorly as her students. I was half expecting her to introduce her boyfriend, Bill Sikes.
