Though I wouldn't want to raise your expectations and thus ruin the experience, I recommend seeing this film. Surely a big screen is not necessary; you could wait for netflicks, but are you really going to remember? Is there really anything else out there right now? Factoid looks fun, but it won't come to my little town soon. This little film has great cartoon like characters and some wonderfully dark humor.
But you know me. What film wouldn't I love that begins with a girl hugging her brother after a suicide attempt and saying, "I'm so glad you're still with us."
He says, "That makes one of us."

Speak of the devil. Ive planned on seeing this movie the last two nights, but it hasn't happened yet. I have definite plans to see it tonight, so if it works out I'll hit you with my review.
I saw "Little Miss" a few weeks ago and really had trouble disassociating the scenes of 6-year old beauty queens with images of JonBenet Ramsey. But aside from that disturbing association, I thought the movie did a great job of parodying childhood and adolescent beauty pageants.
Ok, so it was officially awesome. My face hasn't hurt so badly from laughing since the Aristocrats. Favorite Lines:
"You gotta get them while they're young, cause once you're 18 that's 3-5 years" and "I love you, and it's not because of your brains or your personality - it's because you're beautiful." I disagree with H.H. I think it was awesome cause it parodies the disfunctional american family. The beauty pagent is just a vehicle.
DO NOT Read this comment if you haven't seen the film.
I tend to agree that the pagent is a small part of the trip. However the kids strip tease does a great mockery of prostituting children in children pagents.
What about when she dedicates her dance to her grandfather and they ask where he is. She says, "He's in the trunk of our car"!
Pushing the corpse out of the window killed me too.
And what about the horn and the horny cop! That pun killed me almost as much at the dad hesitatingly saying "sweeeet" as the cop goggles the porn.
I like the look the cop gives the wife while purusing the porn. combined with the eyebrow raise...priceless
