I just read a long New Yorker article exposing the guy in that as a fraud.

The Bridge
boy interrupted

I watched both of these. Pretty depressing, but at the same time I couldn't stop watching.

after looking at my netflix, there was a couple I forgot to mention.

Overnight - about troy duffy's rise to fame and his fall just as quick.

This film is not yet rated - very good, even more eye-opening. Makes you realize just how retarded movie ratings are.

Man, The Bridge was tough to watch. Listening to the family of those who jumped is like listening to myself talk. minus the talk of mental disease.

Did not see anyone mention:

The Corporation (2004?)
Dear Zachary (2008?)

just watched that, thought it was interesting. They really go after the big companies, I was okay with that until they got to Monsanto, but that's cause my dad works for them


Your dad is a count.

Watch:
'The World According To Monsanto' if you do not know anything about the company.

I know Monsanto is far from perfect, I only know about them because my dad works for them. They have employed him and paid him for most of my life, that's why I didn't like the Monsanto bashing. They were just protecting their patent, to go after them for that, was absurd IMO

Monsanto's GM crimes are the least of their offenses.

On that note, though, if you think that patenting a variety of life is legitimate, you are a count.

(I promise not to hijack the thread any further.)

I recommend the documentary:

Pulling John (2009)

I'm just saying it's good business to protect a patent. Whether or not they should have made the product they patented is an entirely different discussion.

Care to enlighten us on the subtleties of your intellectual property opinions? Because you sound quite cunting yourself.
