darkon = 6/10
King of Kong = 9/10
indie Game the movie = 4.5/10
bastards of the party = 6/10 dont like how they glorify certain murderers, and are proud of rioting. It is well done though
Somm 2012 = 6/10
Ecstasy of Order The Tetris Masters 2012 = 7/10

Have only looked back through the last 3 pages and havnt seen it posted so:-

Bull Runners of Pamplona

http://m.imdb.com/title/tt2402982/

I got involved in a similar (but smaller) bull run recently so it's a topic that interested me. A very good watch imo.

The 6.7 score on imdb is about right. I'd say 5.7, but I won't argue 6.7.

Man if I watched every sub-7 documentary, I'd never leave the house.

Nice thread. I'd recommend A Cry from the Top of the World. A documentary in the same vein as Touching the Void but one I prefer due to the use of authentic photage. If you think that sounds interesting I'd just watch it without watching the excerpt. It doesn't contain too many spoilers though.

Trailer for upcoming full length film on three climbers attempting to become the first to climb the east vertical face on Mount Meru in the Himalayas of India.
They have released a couple 20 minute edits that are pretty good. The best one is on the Reel Rock 7 DVD. Dont think you can stream it free anywhere tho. The full length documentary is supposed to come out this fall sometime.

I haven't watched Searching for Sugarman but I did see him live a couple of weeks ago. He has some pretty good songs.

I've got Senna on my computer but haven't got around to watch it yet. Jiro is another one I'd like to see. King of the Kong is another awesome documentary that I saw someone recommend.

Another one? I've watched Paradise Lost and liked it, but never bothered to watch the sequels. Is this better?

I found it to be better. But most of the enjoyment comes in not knowing too much about the plot.

Not sure, I watched in on TV. According to watchonelineforfree.co.uk it's available for Americans and Brits on Netflix but I'm not sure if that legit
