Thread: best documentary movie of all time

for me the best compentary pack bbc planet earth its just perfect.

1.) Food Inc

2.) The Power of Nightmares: Part 3, by the BBC


It's amazing how unaware the average person is about what goes on in their society. The first documentary shows a little bit of just how corrupt our government is -- how big corporations basically have government in their pocket.


The second one casts some light on the whole "war on terror". Most people in America believe that there is a big, worldwide terror network called "Al-Qeada", and that we need to be at war in Afghanistan to "fight terrorists".

The documentary shows how in reality, there is no giant terror network -- 9/11 was done by a small, raggedy group, most/all of whom are probably long dead. How there was never any evidence for Islamic terror cells in the US, and how there was never any evidence of terrorist bases in Afghanistan.

It's from the BBC -- one of the best media sources in the world, but most Americans probably would call this a "conspiracy theory"

i never seen it but i will try to see it i don`t know why i`m attracted to the nature documentary i feel in peace when watching it and so relaxed.

My favorite is: Death of the electric car.

Probably Earth, though it is incredibly boring to watch. But also very interesting and beautiful. But also kinda boring... I prefer kung-fu splatter gore movies :D

Planet Earth is epic.

I just grabbed a great one called "Operation Pipeworks" that's all about the glass pipe art enthusist counter-culture. Pretty cool stuff

I gotta go with mtguy8787 and say the Power of Nightmares. The way it showed how both sides of the war on terror under George W. Bush developed was absolutely fascinating.

i see from a while massive nature its awesome its great i recommend it to every one

i have downloaded BBC Life but didn`t see it yet anybody have seen it?
