2 suggestions for you, especially if you're into metal:
'Metal: A Headbanger's Journey'
'Global Metal' (the sequel).
MaHJ covers the metal scene from an anthropologist's point of view, examining its roots and how it's evolved over the years. The concentration is on the US and Europe. GM examines how metal has expanded into other territories: South America, China, Japan, Israel, and the Middle East in general.
They are very well done and entertaining, even if you're not a metal fan. They get alot of major bands to provide some really interesting interviews, and they get a ton of interesting worldwide fans to provide a perspective on things.
Highly recommended.Originally posted by MartinWho the fuck is Kellan Lutz?Originally posted by gravediggerBasically what I'm saying is that, based on what I've watched so far, we should all listen to Matt more often.Originally posted by MartinAnd who the FUCK is Peaches Geldof?
Kellan Lutz's girlfriend?

I just saw Collapse today. Fucking hell.
I don't know what I feel about Ruppert as a man, but as a subject he's fascinating and he sure has some balls. I also find it very hard to argue with one single thing he says in this film.
It could possibly send you into a spiral of depression, but it might also be one of the most important films you ever watch.Last edited by Ben Thomas; 03-09-2010, 12:24 PM.I experienced an invasion of my mind by a transcendentally rational mind, as if I had been insane all my life and suddenly I had become sane.

Watched most of Commune this weekend. Bunch of goddamn hippies didn't want to work for the man, bought some land and then had a lot of in fighting with other hippies. Bonus?

It's not a Texas mentality! It's the AMURRKICAN mentality. DEATH PANELS! COMMUNIST MUSLIM PRESIDENT! GOD WRITING ON HIS PALM! Ready yourself for war!
Seriously, I'm preparing for when those psychos go overboard and I have to go on a republican killing spree. I've decided my biography will be called "Leftist Policy - WITH A BULLET" and the movie will star Dolph as me, but wearing the He-Man costume.

Just gonna echo everything that Ben said about 'Collapse'. It's fantastically TERRIFYING and a must see. WOW.
He may be a crackpot, but it's hard to deny the fact that he predicted all of this shit with virtually 100% accuracy.Originally posted by MartinWho the fuck is Kellan Lutz?Originally posted by gravediggerBasically what I'm saying is that, based on what I've watched so far, we should all listen to Matt more often.Originally posted by MartinAnd who the FUCK is Peaches Geldof?
