what are good documentaries you would recommend a documentary fan to keep on Tivo, Buy On DVD or watch and which ones do you own


people have begun to add links so if anyone has links, add links

Grizzly Man

That guy is ****ing nuts.

Farenheit 911 :D

Or if you want something totally different, try "Dogtown and Z Boys", a documentary about the skateboard culture of So Cal. You'll be surprised how interesting it is, and the soundtrack is great.

I've got Cocaine Cowboys Tivo'd. Heard good things about that.

Beyond the Mat
Hoop Dreams
The Bridge
Murder Ball
Bowling For Columbine

Among others...

If you've never seen something in High Definition, then I strongly suggest seeing/buying the Planet Earth (http://www.amazon.com/Planet-Earth-Complete-BBC-DVD/dp/B000MRAAJW) series. It will absolutely knock your socks off. One of the best nature documentaries ever done.


Make sure you get the one 'properly' narrated by David Attenborough.



Back in the day I used to like riding waves so I'm partial to these two excellent documentaries.

Riding Giants (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0389326/)

Step Into Liquid (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0308508/)

Even if you're not a surfer I've yet to find anyone that didn't thoroughly enjoy those two movies.

Planet earth is awsome, especially on a HDTV. Also Bowling for Columbine is brilliant. Michael Moore rules!

planet earth was great even with no hd, lol

Negative. On that site there are documentaries hosted on google video and some hosted on veoh, some of the veoh docs will require you to download and install veoh movie player, it's a pretty good program and it also lets you download the movies/documentaries to your hardrive if you want to burn them to dvd.

You can also download from google video in mp4 format now.

Edit: If anybody could find "Beyond the glory - Lennox Lewis" I got some green k and some points to trade. :thinkerg:

Nothing wrong with that, but calling it a "documentary" is somewhat questionable. :lol1:

Here's another must watch boxing documentary.

Hookers Hustlers Pimps and Their Johns
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107137/


Anything made by Nick Broomfield. He made 'Biggie and Tupac', 'Kurt & Courtney', 'Fetishes', which is grrrrrreat! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116298/and ' Aileen: Life and Death of a Serial Killer'.

'American Movie' was great.

Its a doc about a film maker trying to make an extremley low budget horror film, and is forced to get his mom and grandad to help out.

Fear of God is a great doc about the making of The Exorcist film.

The Filth and the Fury...the rise and fall of the Sex Pistols. Even if ur not into them its good.

Got damn, i didnt know thats what it was for, thanks even though i never thought i was gonna get points, whats points for, do i get site prizes


People use them to bet in fights on here, i don't bet so i have no use for them. But some people on these boards would do terrible things for points, so who knows, they might come in handy.

Planet earth is awsome, especially on a HDTV. Also Bowling for Columbine is brilliant. Michael Moore rules!

As someone that spent 8 years of my life in Littleton Colorado, I can say unequivocally, that movie is complete bullshit. He portrays it as a hick town. Nothing and I mean NOTHING could be further from the truth. It is an upper middle class suburb. That is when I first realized Michael Moore is a lying scumbag.

Muderball mang...

Another great documentary is "Metallica: Some Kind of Monster". You don't even need to be a fan of the band to enjoy it. Very compelling.

I am bumping this, i watched a couple of great documentaries recently.

-Encounters at the end of the world(Torrents)

-Young at heart(torrents)

-Bruce Lee: The legend lives on(stage66)

-Stupidity(stage66)

There are a lot of new ones on stage66 i need to watch.

terrible documentary. 2 hours of a bunch of megalogmaniacs crying like pussies and being advised by some nancy boy counselor on how they can make the worst album of their career while adequately maintaining their overinflated egos.


on a side note, i just saw this awesome documentary on bobby kennedy last week. this is part 1 of 12. the rest can be streamed.

It's a "Rockumentary", it says so on the back of the DVD...

Damn, not you again!

I was saving this one for myself, because I didn't think anyone would have posted it.

That film is ****ing awesome!

I saw it on the T.V. over in the UK a while back now, MTV or something like that, one of the endless music channels they seem to be forcing down our throats these days.

If you like Metallica, or rock music in general, this is a must see. Even if you don't, check it out, it's a good watch.

I thought it was quite interesting watching the ego's clash.

They're quite famous and it's obviously gone to all of their heads, to see some of the sissy fits they would throw was both entertaining and at the same time made me realise that fame in todays "celebrity society" can really **** someone up.

Glad they came through with the new album though, better than I was expecting.

not everyone's egos go through the roof to that level. as a matter of fact, most people in that genre's don't. that band stood against everything pussy about rock when they started. now Lars is bidding at art auctions and complaining about shit that not even women complain about.

i don't consider soap operas good documentaries.

Yeah, I see your point, and Lars is a bit of a cunt, but I still think it's a good example of what happens when egos explode and clash like that.
