Nice video!
I liked the part at 1:32:34 the most

However the main theme across the whole movie is about how continuous deregulation caused the crisis and how the solution is to seemingly have more regulation. That and the fact that it's coming from the source as "official" as Sony got me worried.

Remember how public manipulation works? First create the problem, then show them the solution!
It happened so many times in the past that I don't even know where to start.

This time doesn't seem to be different. Yes, the crisis was an inside job, yes, it was engineered as a "problem" only to corner us into their "solution" - total and complete financial control, restrictions on cash deals that we now see in Italy, capital controls in Greece and so on. And look who they put as savers for those crumbling economies - Mario Monti, Lucas Papademos - both former employees of Goldman Sachs!
Surprise, surprise!

So the same people who engineered the crisis are now offering us a solution out of it.
Not gonna happen...

Interesting, that wasn't my take on it, though I also enjoyed the movie.  It seemed to me that the movie showed that the crisis was caused by simple fraud.  The amazing thing was the interviews with the very perpetrators of fraud who were so brazen they didn't realize the interviewer was exposing them.
