No, it isn't destroying America... but Blades Of Glory is?!!!

Haven't seen it, but heard it's excellent - all "sets" and backgrounds/landscapes are digitally created and Green-Screened filming allows actors to be easily "inserted" into CGI world and be anywhere doing almost anything the film-makers desire!!! It's an amazing new technique in film-making!!!

The Doc & P.S. A friend in Ireland (Conor/Starman on Nerds Domain - whom I regularly play chess on-line with) told he he highly recommends the film, too!!! -------------------- LLAP (Live Long And Prosper) and NEVER give up!
