Nice work corrupt, I've already watched a few that people have recommended and they've been great. After watching the one I recommended I'd like to get a 6 month contract at Raytheon :*(

Here's a couple docs i've come across

World According to Monsanto (discusses the darkside of Monsanto's products, Round-up, Bovine Growth Hormone, Genetically Modified Crops and their impact on human health as well as foreign nations)

The Fluoride Deception (Have not watched)

The Beautiful Truth (Have not watched)

Waking Life (Not a documentary but involves many interesting philosophies about life and events)

I'm surprised not to see Zeitgeist and Zeitgeist: Addendum on the list. Probably the most powerful displays of video documenting that i've witnessed.

Thanks

The human anatomy (I think it's called that) - the one with Gunther the slicer and dicer.

i watched the new naturetech series (3 part series) on the weekend & it was really good. lots of cool slow-mo footage of birds flying n stuff. lots of crazy robotics projects from stanford & caltech. def recommend it... although the third part gets a little optimistic about our technological future :/ they just can't help themselves... gotta make some stupid hyperbolic prediction that is so fkn unlikely. stick to the facts maam! ;D

(edit) oh yeah & also The story of Charles Darwin ... bit boring but there is some interesting bits about earyl naturalists & thier adventures.

On that note, "Grass" is an excellent marijuana documentary.

Very detail account of how and why it became illegal.

Badass footage from Vietnam, loading an old man pipe into a shotgun and someone blows in the bowl while people take turns inhaling from the barrel.

Oh and the frisbee pipe is the best invention ever, take a hit then throw it off to someone else in the crowd.

EDIT: found the clip
