I have a list of documentaries that I plan on watching soon, most I have seen parts off that i still need to see end to end


"The Cove" Every year Japan slaughters about 2000 dolphins in a cove that turns blood red during the slaughter. The Japanese goverment tries to hide it so the documentary team had to do a undercover investigation to catch it on Film

"Radiactive Wolves" Documents how wildlife thrives in the radioactive area around Chernobyl because Radiation is not nearly as harmful as humans are.

"How beer saved the world" The title says it all

"King of Kong, a Fistfull of Quarters" Tracks a man trying to retake the world title for highest Donkey Kong Store, I believe he lived in his parents basement, I have to verify

I've been meaning to get around to seeing The Cove for a while now. Guess there's no time like right now.

Dammit. The Cove was a hard watch, but worth it. I'm ashamed it took me so long to get to this.

"Cosmos", by Carl Sagan. I just started re-watching the series on Hulu+, and it holds up very well for a product of the late 70's/early 80's. A few years back I had the chance to work on a project with a couple of SETI (Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) scientists, one American, one Australian. Both of them admitted that "Cosmos" had inspired them to pursue careers in science in general, and SETI in particular.

have you seen the trailer for the updated Cosmos? it'll be on FOX. I'm excited.

That's great news! The trailer was impressive, and the special effects have sure come a long way. Now let's hope they don't **** it up!

I love documentaries....from the very serious, to the taboo, to the hilarious. I recently bought this after I saw it on Showtime. Epic!!! and from the creators of Jackass. By the way, I'm a huge fan of Jesco after seeing a documentary about his father and how he took over the dancing shoes ...I think it was on PBS in the early 80s.
