That's it. If I remember right, the full version on Youtube omits one of the sections which are available as its broken up. It's a great documentary.
Netflix looks like they have themselves another awesome true crime documentary, The Keepers. This one is supposed to be an anthology series if I remember correctly
This just had a local screening here this past weekend. I wasn't able to make it, but heard it's good. Obviously I'm a homer...but Snyds is legend.
Watched Let if Fall: Los Angeles 1982-1992 on ABC. Thought it was good, but it does seem like it was edited for TV. I guess there is a longer version out there. Nonetheless it does a good job examining things from (nearly) all sides and gives the interviewees a backstory, which many docs fail to do.
Yep looks like it's going to be a good one. I like how they are picking something for the first season that I assume most people don't know about.
Watched it last night, it's interesting to me but definitely not for everybody. It's more about rumor/perception than facts, which is what this case is now. It's not a true crime doc, rather a reflection of what others see in true crime stories, specifically this story.
oh ok, so it got into the case a little? I thought it was just strictly about the hiring process for the film.
Yeah this is on Netflix. I just can't pull myself to press play. There also isn't much of a mystery/issue here. Not to mention any conspiracy people will just trigger the shit out of me until I can't go to sleep lol.
No doubt, nothing really new but Newtown is like 9/11 for me, I've always watched anything I can get my hands on.
Made it about 45 minutes in. Had to turn it off. Shit crushed me. Little kids asking "who is gonna teach us now that our teacher is gone?" and just horrible shit like that. My girlfriend lives one town over from Newtown and we have been there when I visited her. That shit hangs over the town like a black cloud. Its so awful. The worst part was going to an antique store (yes i am white as fuck) and running into some asshole wearing a "show me the bodies!" shirt who wanted to engage us in a conversation about how Obama staged the whole thing with crisis actors. Fuck those people.
Just watched the Oklahoma City documentary on Netflix. I definitely didn't know as much about that as I should have.
Watching that as we speak. Ruby Ridge and Waco are things I need to learn more about. Its crazy those happened in my lifetime and in the case of waco so geographically close to me and yet I know only the most basic facts
Waco was an insane time--what was happening in the compound and the public response prior to the ultimate ending in flames. Fresh off the 92 election, the right was super pissed. Reno was appointed just after the standoff began, and she was taking all kinds of unwarranted (imo) heat for it. These things just never end well. Leave them alone and people die. Intervene, people die. Jonestown, Warren Jeffs and other LDS offshoots, The Hale Bopp suicide cult, etc. More are coming. It's totally fascinating in the most macabre sense.
Southbury but yeah, just down the road. A guy who works at the nursing home my girlfriend is administrator of was a first responder at Sandy Hook and he told me there is a large group of those people who moved to the area in the wake of the tragedy to "uncover the hoax." Fuck people.
Just finished Ruby Ridge and the OKC bombing docs on Netflix. Didn't know all that went into the bombing but watching RR before it and come to find it was a piece of history that triggered Mcveigh. That Bombing was tough to watch at times.
Ruby Ridge legit rustled me while watching it. I was losing my fucking mind. I also watched the doc about The Family cult with that crazy bitch Anne Hamilton-Byrne. I think it was on CBS last Saturday. That shit was crazy.
Just watched pet fooled on netflix, good documentary about the pet food industry and how unregulated it is and the harm we're doing to our pets.
So what are the names of the OKC Bombing and Waco docs on netflix? Also, watch Ruby Ridge before the OKC bombing one?
that's why metacritic is the way to go. RT is just a binary rating. 98% looks killer, but it just means 98% of viewers thought it was better the meh. I have no idea why people get psyched about RT ratings. I miss the old days of yahoo's critic rating compilations.
I watched Oklahoma City first and then had no desire to watch Ruby Ridge once I knew the basics of what happened at Ruby Ridge. So yea, I'd definitely watch Ruby Ridge first. And there's a waco documentary out there, too. Watch both of those before Oklahoma City Waco doc is called: Waco - The Rules of Engagement
Had some free time today, decided to fire up the Netflix machine and happened upon the documentary "The Seven Five". It's about crooked cops in the NYPD's 75th precinct in Brooklyn back in the 80's. These guys, 2 in particular, were straight gangsters. Absolutely fantastic.
Watched Get Me Roger Stone today on Netflix. Interesting bio on one of the ministers of disinformation. Kills me that shitbirds like this can be so successful in American politics. Obviously topical at the moment.
I was hoping to get it watched this weekend when I first heard about it. I'm so far behind on my shows it might not be until July now.
Yeah that one. Seemed closer to 3 hours, I thought. It wasn't presented by Always with MyWings when I watched it, though.
This mommy dead and dearest shit is nuts. Kind of makes me sad/scares me because I work with autistic kids and I see a lot of the Godejohn guy in some of the kids I know.
My favorite part of the whole documentary is when the grandparents are talking about the crazy mom's ashes
