Ohhohohoho I love documentaries.

Check out Fat Head.  This computer scientist did an excellent job pointing out the facts of the food and health industry as well as government.

There is also Food Inc. but that's very bias and eggs people to go organic and vegan.  Does point out things about the food industry that I found interesting.

I love documentaries and my favourite show is "bang up in abroad " on national geographic . I really like every single show of "bang up in abroad " . its totally base on real life tragedies .

I really liked Indie Game: The Movie: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1942884/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

and Touching the Void: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379557/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1


Rather disturbing: The Cove http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1313104/?ref_=tt_rec_tt

"Phil Schneider - D.U.M.B.S (Underground Bases, Alien Greys, New World Order) HQ FULL LENGTH" - This is the craziest nonsense conspiracy video i have ever seen, worth a laugh. Basically this guy is some high up engineer who lost his hand in a battle with aliens, and there are secret bases underground where human vs aliens battle is taking place. Would make a good movie script.

"Man, Myth, Mathematician - Pythagoras of Samos - Genius" & "What the Ancients Knew - Greece" - It boggles my mind what the ancient greeks knew, and what they calculated without modern computers.

I would recommend Debtocracy, really good documentary..

starts out at the Greek debts but goes widespread with other countries too

voynich manuscript is interesting.. i say its art.. i hear the CIA says its definitely some type of script.. i find it strange they haven’t decoded it.

Capitalism: A Love Story
This film makes you think. It makes you angry. It makes you want to do something, and that's okay. That is what a film is supposed to do. It is designed to evoke some sort of emotion and help spring it forth.

Thumbs up for Touching the Void.

Have you watch Cosmos? It's really good...

Cosmos (1980): http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0081846/

Cosmos: A SpaceTime Odyssey (2014): http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2395695/

Planet Earth-is a beautifully shot series looking at nature in all it's natural wonder, showcasing a breathtaking diversity of life from the poles to the deserts.

It's about 3 pro gamers trying to make a living playing Dota2. It's a pretty game documentary.

Side note: This year's dota2 tournament prize pool is over $10million.

We'll yeah isn't that the point of most documentaries?

I also like Maxed Out. It's about the credit card business.

Sicko.

About the American Health Care industry. Stuff has changed a tiny bit since it was produced.

Thanks Obama!

Not exactly science related, but I found Home(2009) to be very interesting (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1014762/).

I just watched "Internet's Own Boy" about Aaron Swartz, was one of the best I've seen in a while. He founded a bunch of websites and helped "invent" RSS feeds when he was 13!
