What are some decent documentary films?

Anyone seen Murderball? I've got it downloaded but not watched it. Opinions?

Murderball is good. You can only admire the attitudes of the people featured in the film. The sport is pretty good too!

Yeah I saw it last night. Didn't think it was brilliant but yeah quite good. It was interesting to see the issues surrounding disability. I did find it touching when that quadraplegic guy was talking about how he sometimes has a dream where he's flying and then he has all his limbs back and when he has the dream he doesn't want it to stop.

It was positive to see these people in wheelchairs still being so driven and aggressive. I can see how it's empowering for them.

Zeitgeist is superb. One of those internet only jobs, but it's ace. Zeitgeist 2 is good as well, but it kind of ruins it's message when it all goes a bit idealistic and Moby-like.

No offence but I'm watching Zeitgeist now and I've never heard such a load of bollocks! I will watch it to the end tho. 9/11 conspiracies theories and all.

It's unbelievable - they're trying to discredit religion using astrology - WTF!!!

sleep furiously - "Director Gideon Koppel transforms the ordinary into the sublime in this documentary that describes the current issues facing the Wales farming community. As the population ages, the schools face closure, and the mobile library signals a resistance to move into the 21st Century, Koppel's camera stands as a silent observer and the music of Aphex Twin washes over the viewer."

our daily bread - see how all our food is made; vegetables growing, cattle, pigs and chickens bred, slaughtered, butchered. no speaking or soundtrack - just the sounds of production. watching the cows get killed is pretty harsh but i still had a McDonalds Quarter Pounder Deluxe with Bacon just now.
