To Mars By Bomb
Its about the project in the 50's to make space ships powered by dropping nukes out the bottom of them. Orion page on wiki. Its a BBC production that i caught randomly one night and was pretty interesting. It was military funded and only cancelled when the president saw the plans to use it to rain down thousands of mini nukes on the planet bellow.

Part 1
wait..............................what?

I agree that one was fucked up! It would be interesting to see a follow up though, to see if those kids are still biblefreaks (no offence to religious people intended, but this documentary was a freakshow)

The drunk animals are just one part of the movie, its filled with awesome things


that scene is from http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071143/ I believe. might be they borrowed it but the voice over tells me it is definitively Jamie Uys' "Animals are beautiful people"

m a HUGE documentary addict,and i finally got to watch some of those found in this thread.

Man on wire:guy is awesome and ballsy,documentary is heartwarming.

Exit through the gift shop:you guys were underselling it by only saying it was about street art.sure the first half hour is,the last hour is a big twist.

Currently watching catfish:weird,really really weird one hour in.
+ Show Spoiler +
after finishing it,if this is not a fake,which im pretty sure it is,im amazed at ow a woman as smart as angela(shes a really bad painter btw)falls for a guy as shallow as nev.give her good looks and shed be a lot of guys dream.too bad for her she got screwedat birth;o btw i hope nev gave her a pity fuck,and not just sat in his chair trying to be the cool guy saying:ill be fine to someone who just said she had cancer(which was a lie too).
moral of this fake documentary for me:only blind people know true love.yes im cheesy as fuck,fuck you.


My selection:Man bites dog,greatest *documentary* youll ever see.If youre not convinced just google it and read the first three lines and stop there,as not to spoil it.

ANything by werner herzog,but i absolutely love encounters at the end of the world,being a traveller myself,it gave me one more place to add on my to see list.

The Smartest Guys in the Room - Enron



I absolutely loved The Smartest Guys in the Room, it's a must-see for all those uninformed of white collar, corporate crime and exactly how Enron used terror tactics to make their stock price soar.


This is a very eye-opening film from a first-person perspective of someone who stayed home during the Katrina hurricane from a low-income area of New Orleans.

Man bites dog is the best mockumentary, especially if you like extreme black humor.
Catfish is a mockumentary too, i dont know if you're aware of it. It's quite good too tho.
All Werner Herzog documentaries are fascinating, if you dont know what to watch just pick one of his documentary.
My favorite being this one:

Its about a bloodthirsty african dictator (bokassa) who crowned himself emperor, it's both hilarious and extremely frightening.

Great global warming documentary. I also suggest reading the book skeptical environmentalist which the documentary is based on.

After going through 15 pages of this thread, I can't believe this wasn't posted here(unless i'm really blind)

There is a series (yes, series) of 45minute documentaries narrated by Morgan Freeman called Through the Wormhole.

A must watch for anyone who is a fan of scientific documentaries, and morgan freeman's voice.

I believe it aired on TV at some point, and there are two seasons of it, (19 episodes in total)

There are some recurring themes (mainly string theory, and quantum physics, if you can call those themes) but each episode asks a question like "Does Time Exist" and goes about answering that.


[image loading]

A third season is currently in the works!

This seems to be a reliable place to watch it, and numerous other documentaries.

Probably been said before, but I have nothing but good things to say about Exit Through The Gift Shop. If you appreciate art, watch it.

Grizzly Man
documentary about a guy living with grizzly bears done by werner herzog. so basically its a documentary about a weirdo done by another weirdo. fun and interesting stuff!

Exit Through the Gift Shop
what was supposed to become a documentary about the underground street artist banksy became essentially a documentary about the guy who was supposed to do the documentary about banksy. very entertaining and thought-provoking

Baraka
simply one of the most beautiful movies of all time, chances are even if youve never seen it you saw some of its footage somewhere, its legendary. no speech, only music, but it conveys its topic well even so. best to watch really stoned

The Fog of War: Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert McNamara
very interesting and well-done documentary about the former US defense minister. the only thing i don't like is how someone with as much blood on his hands as mcnamara can come across so self-pitying in his regret in old age, it seemed to me that he should have tried to take more responsibility for his actions. whats next? kissinger doing an apologetic documentary about his life?

When we were Kings
documentary about the legendary 'rumble in the jungle' fight between muhammed ali and george foreman. im not a fan of boxing (i didn't even know who would win at the end, which made the documentary all the more entertaining), but this is a really great documentary
