	Film Threat Back Talk - Supersize Me (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		As for me, I never liked McDonald's, even as a kid, I found their burgers greasy and rubbery and the soda watery.
		I saw SUPERSIZE ME, MR DEATH: THE RISE AND FALL OF FRED A. LEUCHTER JR and STEVIE over the weekend or as I called the triple billing: DEPRESSION FEST.
		Of the three, STEVIE had the most impact, then MR DEATH, and by the time I got to SUPERSIZE ME, watching a dude eat too much food from McDonald's to prove it was bad for you (duh), seemed like a cheery Disney film.

	..anoviel cinema..: Supersize Me
		The Super Size Me Website works both to promote the film and its recent DVD release, as well as to further the cause of educating American consumers about the food that they’ve grown so accustomed to eating.
		There is also a well moderated discussion board for those who wish to argue over the finer points of the film; this interactive element is an especially effective one for a documentary whose stated aim is to get people thinking and talking, rather than to drive hordes of customers away from fast food restaurants.
		Spurlock’s focus on the so-called “obesity epidemic” – the reported inspiration behind the film being the case of two young women who sued the McDonald’s Corporation under the accusation that the corporation caused their obesity – detracts, somewhat, from what could be the far greater message of the film.

	Super Size Me (2004): Reviews
		Super Size Me is an anti-junk-food screed that manages to entertain even as it informs and alarms.
		Although Super Size Me benefits from a number of interviews with nutritionists, lobbyists, lawyers, and the like, the film inevitably (but not unenjoyably) is dominated by Spurlock, who offers his sober-minded statistics and cheeky asides without ever devolving into an off-putting Michael Moore-like moralizing.
		The strength of Super Size Me lies primarily in Spurlock's character -- he comes across as an affable guy with a goofy sense of humor.

	Supersize - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Supersize was a trademark that referred to the largest portion size available in meals offered by McDonald's.
		However, critics of the fast food industry (and by extension McDonald's) had begun criticizing the use of the term as representing everything that is wrong about the fast food industry, or consumerism in general.

	Don't supersize me - The Boston Globe
		Because I'm the Globe's TV critic, I think he expected to hear a lot of home-theater geek-talk involving 50-something inches of plasma, a pounding, hyperreal surround of sound, and cup holders on a sleek row of viewing chairs.
		I love it the way it is. My trusty TV has become a matter of principle to me, and I stubbornly resist buying all the bells and whistles, the mighty hardware that makes bells clang deafeningly and whistles pierce eardrums.
		And that's the best way to experience the medium, not just for a newspaper TV critic who watches it for a living, but for all viewers who don't want to be alpha-ed by their tubes.

	Supersize Me : film review
		But if you are like me, you do it anyway, heading to McDonalds, Wendys or Burger King to ingest copious amounts of burgers, fries and soft drinks.

		It didn't for me. But it may start to slowly change it, bit by bit, for the better.

		PARK CITY -- Following in the footsteps of Michael Moore's work, "Super Size Me" is one of the new generation of documentaries in which the filmmaker becomes the subject.
		In between the daily journal of his gorging, often with supersize portions of Big Macs, fries and soda, Spurlock interviews people on the street, the U.S. surgeon general and a lobbyist for the fast-food industry.
		One of the most distressing stops along the way is at a school in Illinois where kids are fed pizza, soda and sweets to their hearts' content.

	The Raw Story \| Supersize Me: Scariest hypothesis is proven
		Following up on the recent case of two obese girls who filed lawsuits against McDonald’s for their worsening condition, only to have the charges dropped for not “proving the cause of the injuries,” Spurlock makes himself the guinea pig of a stomach-churning yet foolproof experiment.
		Another glaring case of overkill is the inclusion of not one, not two, but four reports on Spurlock’s waning sexual prowess as a result of the experiment, one of which is rather explicit.
		Still, “Supersize Me” is a commendable debut, often hilarious, often alarming, and always passionate to deservedly skewer its main targets, much like Moore’s films.

	CNN.com - McSupersizes to be phased out - Mar. 3, 2004
		The hamburger giant has started phasing out its trademark Supersize fries and drinks in its U.S. restaurants as part of an effort to simplify its menu and give customers choices that support a balanced lifestyle, a company spokesman said Tuesday.
		By the end of 2004, Supersize will no longer be available at the nation's 13,000-plus McDonald's outlets except in certain promotions, McDonald's spokesman Walt Riker said.
		The move comes as the world's largest restaurant company, and fast-food chains in general, are under growing public pressure to give consumers healthier food options in a nation that has suddenly become aware of its bulging waistline and the health dangers that come with it.

		The good news though is that the hard disk inside is a regular 40GB EIDE drive, which should make it a relatively easy job to upgrade, as per the instructions here.
		However, it proved to be anything but straightforward for me. Initially, I purchased a 120GB drive, only to discover on forums that while these upgrades seemed to work at first, many users came across what became known as the, “17 minute bug” where they couldn’t fast forward past 17 minutes.
		The process took me a good couple of hours, spread over the course of three evenings —the delay caused by my wife actually wanting to use the Sky Plus to watch television on, which, though inconvenient, I could hardly complain about.

	Supersize Me (2004)
		With its look at America's dining habits and subsequent weight-gains, the new Sundance Director's Prize-winning documentary Super Size Me could be a success solely for its relevance to these times of low-carb diets and government health warnings on obesity.
		Super Size Me seeks to answer that question through Spurlock's McDonald's diet.
		His live-in girlfriend is seen on film and we are told that she is a vegan chef so it's safe to assume Spurlock's previous fast-food consumption was limited at best.

	McDonald’s phasing out super-size fries, drinks - Food Inc. - MSNBC.com
		The burger giant said it has begun phasing out Supersize fries and drinks in its more than 13,000 U.S. restaurants and will stop selling them altogether by year’s end, except in promotions.
		The company cited the need to trim a menu that has expanded in recent years and said eliminating super-sizing is only part of that effort.
		The elimination of the 7-ounce “Supersize” carton of fries is part of a switch from five size options down to three; the biggest will now be the 6-ounce “large” fries.
