From the top of my head I really enjoyed Food Inc, a big eye opener into the industry. I knew the conditions of animals were bad, but seeing it documented was disgusting.

The food inc one is really good. I think that changed on how eat trying to make a serious change in that.

Well for anyone here who did not see any Michael Moore docu, please see one. Just one and you will surely get hooked. Maybe the best docu ive seen is 911 Fahrenheit and The Cove. The cove was great. Its about the killing of Dolphins in Japan. Have to see that too!
I've watched the documentary, and I feel sorry for those dolphins. Embarrassed Cry

Depends on how interesting they are and whether it's actually true, I watched a very interesting documentary on anonymous recently.

I love documentaries, albeit most of the time I'm saddened by what I've learned. Of all the documentaries I've ever seen there is one that stands alone. It changed my life and the way I look at the world.

The Century of the Self

There was a similar one called "Fast Food nation" I think, horrible to see, it's the reason I stopped eating cattle meat.

I'm fond of documentaries in theory, but the junk passing itself off as documentary material on the History Channel is a bit of a turnoff. There have been cases were the "experts" involved distanced themselves from the History Channel because its producers twisted what they said to support their own opinions and not the real facts of the case.

I really enjoy watching documentaries, you can leart a lot from them, since universe documentaries, science, history and battles are the best ones.

I don't know if they qualify as documentaries, but I love the series, how it's made, they explain you step by step how candles, bullets, gums, lipsticks, cocacola, blades, etc. is made, the present these videos which are 4-5 minutes long, you can find them all on YouTube as: How it's made.

My reference for documentary are the Discovery ones about animals, and others as boring as.

I really like documentaries, if they are well done and not "mockumentaries". I especially like those with few/no comment /special effects where original pictures speak for themselves. Unfortunately most documentaries are as crappy as hollywood movies. But there are some really good ones from independent filmmakers (often in movie length).

ya.ya.yo!

the ones I mentioned is on point. it gives enough insight what most people dont know or arent aware of which I know most love in documentaries.

A really eye opener is food inc, which most already know.

But watch Divorce Corp, a billion dollar industry on divorces here in the U.S and you`ll be amazed the divorce rates compared to other countries.

some documentaries are more entertaining to me than most movies. the best one i've seen recently was "the act of killing." it's interesting in that it shows you the perspective of mass murderers and how their actions affect their mental state.

I can't imagine anyone hating on documentaries so long as they they are on topics of their interest.

documentaries can serve political agendas.. there are plenty of them that try to prop both liberal and conservative ideologies. for republicans, look up "danesh d'souza" he spreads a lot of fud. and i'm pretty sure the conservatives here do not like michael moore.

How's that related to anything I've said?

well, let's say you are a republican.. and you are interested in the topic of healthcare. if you watched a michael moore movie, you'd hate the shit out of it. i'm not saying who is wrong or right.. but you'd easily end up hating "sicko" as a documentary.
