After today you weren’t supposed to be able to see Fuel anymore.  Fortunately for everyone, it’s been popular enough that the limited run just got a little less limited, so jump on the chance before it goes away for real.

“Lola, what the heck is Fuel?” you ask.  It’s a freakin’ awesome movie!  Seriously, it won Best Documentary at Sundance, so it’s not like I’m pulling this stuff out of thin air. I went to see it last week and was pretty blown away.  Yeah, it’s a doc about green power, and who hasn’t heard enough about that, right?  Well, this one doesn’t just bitch and moan about how oil’s messing up the world.  Instead, it talks about what we can do about the problem, and the solutions it provides make a whole lot of sense.  I think of myself as a pretty environmentally conscious person, but the movie was still a kick in the pants.

Anyway, it was only supposed to be released in theaters for one week, but enough people went to see it last week that the run is being extended.  Check it out if you have any interest at all in environmental type stuff.  I thought it did a great job of being informative without being obnoxious and hopefully you’ll love it, too.

Watch the trailer on YouTube.
