I think the movie The Happening is considered laughably bad.
It's a movie about people being killed by a neuro-toxin that every tree in north america suddenly decided to dump into every city in the US.
And it's supposed to support the whole "Go Green" Thing.
Allow me to suggest, contrarily, that if millions of Americans were killed by some tree-originated pathogen that could be released again at any time, the immediate result would not be a renewed enthusiasm for peaceful coexistence, but rather a program of deforestation so aggressive it’d make the Brazilian lumber industry look like tree huggers.
