Got to love the top ten most popular..."documentaries". Apollo Zero, Expelled - No Intelligence Allowed, Cannabis - The Evil Weed... Cripes! "Documentaries" have become such a powerful propaganda these days and people just lap it up completely because it's in a documentary form.
By the way, I find Collapse brilliant. They just let this guy ramble and ramble and what starts as reasonably coherent concerns progressively ends up into a "How to Survive a Zombie Apocalypse" amidst tears and emotional anguish. It's funny how many reviews of the film find it "important".

This documentary site was a recent find, that looks well organised and functions well. Various science based vids by the look of it.

It's by Peter Russell. It starts out a bit dry in presentation, but improves.

I see them more often as stimulating to thought. I am a bit of nature freak, so like the informative nature docos.

Originally posted by TaomanWell said. I appreciate the site, my post was more of a comment on what people are watching and how they form opinions.
