    There's a good film out called "The Lobster"

    here's a review..

    Longevity and lifelong fertility are among the reasons why a human may wish to become the eponymous creature, explains Colin Farrell’s protagonist at the outset of “The Lobster.” The tasty crustacean’s rich associations with the Surrealist movement appear to have slipped his mind, but not that of Greek writer-director Yorgos Lanthimos, whose supremely singular fifth feature — his first in English — takes his ongoing fascination with artificially constructed community to its dizziest, most Bunuelian extreme to date. A wickedly funny protest against societal preference for nuclear coupledom that escalates, by its own sly logic, into a love story of profound tenderness and originality, this ingenious lo-fi fantasy will delight those who already thrilled to Lanthimos’ vision in “Alps” and the Oscar-nominated “Dogtooth,” while a starry international cast should draw as-yet-unconverted arthouse auds into his wondrously warped world.

    All that looked OK to me Scott.  I think it has to do with the unordered list he chose to use.  In my cc forum, I copied his html into a post and the post was borked like above.  I changed all the "li"s to "p" (just paragraphs not unordered list) and the post was fine.

    Too bad it's 1:22 am in Thailand.....
