    I'm looking for something to watch while I surf online. Have you watched any good documentaries lately?

    I also love watching documentary. But I'm more into nature documentary. Check out the BBC series Blue Planet.

    Planet Earth is next in my watch list.

    Are you interested in older (late 90's) documentaries that haven't been seen by the masses but are SO important?
    If so I can suggest a few that you may enjoy!

    If not,
    Earthlings, you'll be put off meat for life, I'M SERIOUS!!! I've suggested this to many and they didn't take me seriously, now they eat very little meat. Alternatively you could watch the Food Inc. - I haven't but I believe it's more economic confronting than Earthlings.
    Another that's not too old is, Who Killed The Electric Car - crucial viewing.

    BUT the six you MUST watch, preferably in this order:
    911 Mysteries
    The Union
    Super High Me
    Zeitgeist (1), Zeitgeist Addendum (2), Zeitgeist - Moving Forward (3)

    These are crucial viewing for everyone!

    Try the Chicago Conspiracy: http://www.crimethinc.com/movies/chicago.html
    It's about the fascist dictatorship in Chile and how some of its policies continue to this day. Very interesting, lots of history and crazy riot footage.

    I don't know why, but according to IMDB, The King's Speech is the newest documentary movie on documentary top 50.

    Yes I watched this too... Americans must be so ashamed to have this family on the same soil as them! They should all be flogged and then hung.

    I felt sorry for the kids.....brainwashed from an early age, and if they don't obey they are forced to live and have no further communication with their family

    To be removed from their family totally is not a bad thing in my eyes... What they are doing is child abuse!
