- techguru2006, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11Wow, the entire movie, The Corporation is on here. I've been wanting to see this.

- shiftt, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6actually, there are two versions of "the corporation". The second one is slightly shorter than the original, here's the official explanation
WHY A SHAREWARE VERSION?
Mark Achbar, Executive Producer, Producer, and Co-director, explains: "When I discovered that over 500,000 people had downloaded The Corporation, I had mixed feelings. As a filmmaker and activist, one of my goals is to reach the largest possible audience. So from that perspective, it's an astounding success."
"But I also organized the financing of the film and have ongoing obligations to the individuals and public funders that invested in it. THE CORPORATION was a huge undertaking. Over two hundred people helped make the film, the DVD, and website, and worked on the outreach campaign, over a period of 8 years."
"I think most people downloading the film understand what an enormous effort it is to make a film like this and will support it, if there's a reasonably easy way to. So, I decided to release my own "shareware" version of the film, but with a short message at the beginning, asking viewers for a little financial consideration to help offset the costs of production and keep our outreach efforts going. We now have a "contribute" button on our website, www.thecorporation.com. I hope you’ll decide to use it, and encourage others to as well. —Thanks!" - psdiao, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Domza, i knew what a boob was the day I was born
- CrAzYTrevor, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7I always find that geeks in general love documentaries. That whole "we seek after knowledge thing" I guess. Maybe its because "we've been spoon-fed baby food at school when we hungered for steak..."
- Agent_M, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I also really enjoy the Bodyshock/Mindshock series, which don't appear to be listed there.
They're scattered around this guy's profile:
http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?user=Taitington
The most shocking one is probably the one called "Born with Two Heads":
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPHLU2c7-sw
The other stuff the guy's uploaded are pretty interesting too. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Awesome, I am already watching a BBC documentary on Dark Matter from the site!!
- NanoStuff, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Coincidentally I just watched Human 2.0 (under anthropology in this list). I gotta say, for a BBC presentation, that was piss poor. What the hell was the point of the little bastard children running around echoing back in whispers?
- Willy99, on 10/12/2007, -3/+6this site has a ton of great documentaries to watch for free. the best of the best...
1) The Battle of Algiers - amazing look at terrorism... in the 1960s. You got the secret cells, the torture, the suicide bombers... like it is the same thing all over again. Tim Robbins has called this his #1 film of all time.
http://tesla.liketelevision.com/liketelevision/tuner.php?channel=955&format=movie&theme=guide
2) The Battle of Britain - Oh my, how times have changed. An interesting look at the world at war.
http://tesla.liketelevision.com/liketelevision/tuner.php?channel=29&format=movie&theme=guide
3) Duck n Die - a bizarre mix of civil defense films from the 50s... that is funny as hell.
http://tesla.liketelevision.com/liketelevision/tuner.php?channel=1047&format=tv&theme=guide
4) Marilyn Monroe Documentary - narrated by John Huston.
http://tesla.liketelevision.com/liketelevision/tuner.php?channel=135&format=movie&theme=guide
5) the bizarre "schlockumentaries of Africa and east asia are a thing to behold too. very strange.
Beyond Bengal and Africa Speaks are the best of this breed. Also - the Hitler era documentaries
of Leni Riefenstahl. Just search for documentary and get a list of 30 suggestions.

- Spudz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4The God Delusion, one of Dawkin's docs, includes a lengthy discussion/argument with the great Ted Haggard, he of the quite embarrassing homosexuality "revelation." Good times.
Includes a claim by Haggard that he conference calls George Bush once a week. I wonder if those calls are still being taken? - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Now i cant wait to get home from work! Thanks, digged..

- TheOtherGuy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Awesome its got Mr Death - by Errol Morris...
Errol Morris is hands-down the best documentary maker going around.. - BlinkBoy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4It'd be more awesome if my Wii could navigate the menu. I'll have to check it out on my pc tomorrow.
- DrScott, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Modern Marvels FTW.
- SuckMyDigg, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2How about some good non-fiction books as well? Anyone have some sites?
- funwithscissors, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Holy *****, who takes the time to write all that spam?
- Arkonnan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2> Check out that one with the Nephilim.
I watched about five minutes of that one, and all I can say is What..The..*****.
I might have given the guy the benefit of the doubt and kept going for the sheer entertainment value, but then they transitioned to the stoned hippy bantering on about the book of Genesis and that was it for me. ;p - rebootis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Great!!
- flubba, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1god delusion - if youre too lazy to read
- RunnyBabbit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Well, okay, Loose Change. But what do you imply by saying them?
- Screamager, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2"The Doomsday Code" in the Geo-politics section was incomplete (there's 47 minutes of it, but obviously its longer).

- Zlaya, on 11/01/2007, -0/+1dude man made global warming is a scam, and al gore's movie is full of holes
stop following the other sheep, stand back, think about it and research things - chris663, on 12/31/2007, -0/+0I use http://freedocumentaries.net/ which i think is way better than the one mentioned above lol
- ShellyT, on 01/02/2008, -0/+0I really like this! The one about Aristotle is pretty cool :)
- jlmarten, on 11/26/2007, -0/+0Why is it that this generation seems so much more out of touch with decisions and events that so directly affect our lives? Perhaps those who loot our public coffers and seek to enslave us to debt have us right where they want us. As the old saying goes: "Those who don't know history and are condemned to repeat it."
- RaddMcCool, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0This is a wonderful page. Documentaries are great.
- XPloreMagic, on 05/09/2008, -0/+0Wonderful page. In this site you can found another documentaries about magic, hypnosis, and supernatural:
