I heard about this one and I wanted to check it out. (Cool Cagney avatar btw)
^ Good Ones-"Man on a Wire": It's an intersting doc about a tight-rope walker, and how he walked across the Twin Towers.
-"Infamy": It's about street graffiti, which I knew nothing about, but it's an amazing doc.
-"Comedian": I practice stand-up, and this is a great doc on what goes into telling and crafting jokes.
-"It Might Get Loud": It's great if you like rock music.
-"Rising Son:Christian Hosoi": I used to skate when I was younger, and is about the fall of a great skater into drugs.
-"Urban Explorers: Into the Darkness": Just an interesting doc about people who explore urban underground.
-"When You're Strange": It's about the Doors.
-"LoudQUIETloud:A Film About The Pixies": It's about The Pixies reunion.
-"Rolling Stones: Stones in Exile": I like The Stones
-"I Am Comic": Again, it's a comedy doc about many things comedy. It's a solid watch.
-"Super High Me": Follows comedian Doug Benson who makes a satirical doc on Super Size Me, but about Marijuana.
-"Dogtown and Z-Boys": Shows the very beginning of street skating.
-"Restrepo": It's about a group who goes overseas to fight against the Taliban.
-"The Endless Summer": I like watching surfing movies, and this was one of the first ever made. It's a classic.
-"Fall From Grace": It's about The Phelps family, and what they're about. I now hate them.
-"Planet Earth"
-"The King of Kong": It's about a guy who goes for the worlds record in Donkey Kong, but has some bumps and scandals along the way.
Those are off the top of my head. If I can think of more, I'll post. Also, if you have Netflix, you can stream all of those, except for Comedian and Planet Earth.
.
If you liked all of those, I HIGHLY recommend 'Infamy'. Like I said, it's about street graffiti, and I knew absolutely nothing about the subject, but it really has made me appreciate it more. But more than anything, it's just an interesting watch.^ Good Ones
I bolded the ones I've seen and I really liked them.
I think "Man on a Wire" won the Oscar for best doc a couple years ago.
I really enjoyed "Comedian".
Tom DiCillo directed "When you're strange" and it's narrated by Johnny Depp (I love DiCillo's "Living in Oblivion".)
"Dogtown and Z-Boys" was great, much better than "Lords of Dogtown" the feature film based on the same story.
"The Endless Summer" is indeed a classic.
Thanks. I will look for it.

I loved Religulous. One of my favorites, actually._ "Religulous". A little biased but still entertaining. I find Bill Maher amusing. I remember a joke he told on his show that I thought was funny: "In Hollywood, everyone is doing their part for the environment. Even Vin Diesel who decided to change his name for Vin Ethanol."
Yeah, I liked it a lot too.I loved Religulous. One of my favorites, actually.
Yeah, those were good too. The funny thing about Super Size Me, is that it made me crave McDonalds more after watching it, and I went and got a Big Mac. No joke.
Haha
t: I know what you mean, those Big Macs are addictive.
