  1. Why do men say this shit. According to the resources minister Shane Jones

    “The scale of mining in New Zealand is minuscule,” Jones claimed. “It’s akin to a beauty spot on the face of an attractive woman.

    Having backpacked on the South island over a decade a go the natural beauty around there is really hard to overstate. Disgusting that you anyone would attack someone over their public opposition to what will likely be an environmental disaster.

    As someone who lives in this area we need the jobs desperately. There’s been redundancies after redundancies and people are struggling. I get his perspective but its difficult for the community to hear it from an hollywood outsider who has millions when people just want to work and support their family.

    I love Sam, but when people are broke a/f and there’s the potential to earn some money and it’s being opposed, it’s not surprising that people would get pissed off about it.

    How is it that New Zealand has the nicest people, the most beautiful nature, and the cutest animals, but their Politicians are still greedy shit for brains cunts?

    Nobody wants mining, near them. Everyone wants the goods produced from those mines. Guess the left and right will never get bored of complaining in the end.

    I don’t know much about this proposed gold mine other than what Sam Neill shared here. But I have been to Central Otago, the area he is referring to and where he has his winery, and it is truly one of the most beautiful places I’ve been on this planet. I hope they are able to stop the mine!

  7. His real accent is so much posher than his accent in the movies I’ve seen him in. (This is not a criticism, just an observation.)

    The local mine supporters Facebook page is full of vile crap & constant ad hominem attacks. What they say about Sam (or anyone) that opposes the mine is disgusting. They are completely void of the ability to have constructive debate. Massive respect for what Sam does and is doing in his community, it shouldn’t come at this personal cost.
