George Ritzer coined the term "McDonaldization of Society" the same year this film was released (1993).

Discuss how Ritzer's concepts of efficiency, predictability, calculability,and control monitoring are evident in this scene. What statement do you think McDonaldization makes about our postmodern society in a general sense? (not just in fast food in particular).
*Make sure to use examples to support your viewpoints.
