So, I've been watching some documentaries online the past few monthes and there have been a few that I've really enjoyed.
This is one of them! It's about a left leaning pair of activists who use media to screw with big companies. It's pretty great.

The Yes Men Fix the World


I'm just going to leave it at one doc for now. I know you media savvy, intelligent, charming and devastatingly good looking denizens of the internet have all sorts of documentaries you've found online that you've loved. Well? Give them up already!

I watched a really good one a couple of years ago, which I hear has since been turned into a TV series. It was called Life After People and was about what might happen if all humanity vanished overnight:

Very interesting stuff!

Sounds good, I remember watching part of the TV series, and I learned exactly one thing;

There will be no poodles after the apocalypse. (edit: Read that in the deepest, most forboding tone you can manage. thx)

If you can find a copy of Stuff the World. it's worth a watch. It's a documentary of the World Taxidermy Championships. It was about three or four years ago I watched it and it may be nowhere near as good as I remember, but I've finally managed to track down a copy and I'm going to watch some of it now.

Recently I saw King of Kong, about the world's top arcade game players competing for the top score on Donkey Kong. It's definitely worth watching, just to see how messed up an obsession like this can get.
