watch "the inconvenient truth behind waiting for superman"

it's an indie grassroots education film showing what they failed to show in waiting for superman, which is extremely biased. it shows you the other side of the coin.

Man, oh man. Definitely one of the best I've seen. Hoop Dreams is a close second. 
 
just watched dear zachary... thanks for the recommendation!

i'll also second "king of kong"... and not just for those who are into video games. i think it's a great story regardless.

Interesting to see the reactions from non-F1 fans on this... cuz for F1 fans, it's pretty emotional, especially as the movie progresses and when you know what inevitably happens.  

Glad you enjoyed it.

Where did you watch it?
 
Just watched I.O.U.S.A. on Netflix Stream. Great breakdown of how screwed our budget and deficit is as of 2008/9. Very relevant piece that had good pace and was easy to watch all the way through.

Caught Casino Jack on Netflix stream last week as well. Would recommend.
 
The street stops here. About St. Anthony's highschool and coach Bob Hurley. Really good documentary following him through a season and showing the financial struggles the school is dealing with while being a top high school basketball program in the country.

its been available to download for a long time. The 2 hour 40 minute version aswel as the shorter version.
really great documentary. we won't see another f1 driver like him, Lewis can try but hes not even close.

He should of stayed with mclaren, there seemed to be a lot of love and respect between the team and him.

Yeah, I downloaded mine as well... just thought he might have watched it at a theater or something, given it's limited release in the US (assuming that's where he is).
Haha, errrm... "should have stayed with McLaren"?  He's still with them and by the look of things, will probably re-sign for another season or 2.  

Perhaps if he wins a few more WDC's, he'd be slightly closer to Senna, but, yeah, he's nowhere near right now.

i meant senna should have stayed with mclaren and had a lot of respect for ron dennis which seems mutual which is suprising as i've heard ron dennis is pretty hard to get on with.
