Power of Nightmares

[Lazytom]

Anyone see this doc on TV? it was a three-parter screened around the time of the US election...

Basically a historical analysis of the events and philosophies that lead to the whole War on Terror thing... fucking mind-blowing.

Anyways, if you missed it you'll get a second chance cos its been recut into a feature film. Its being premiered at Cannes and will be distributed world-wide by Pathe. Keep an eye out!!!

Yes, it was brilliant...

Barclay had made a thread about it when it was shown on TV the second time around..

Does anyone know if there are any plans for this to be released on DVD?

 

[damion]

anyone who wants it, go here to get BitTornado then here for the three individual parts

powerful stuff

 

[Blender Bender]

Damion, how large are these files?

Here in the land of tzatziki connections are not quite what they are in Britain..

 

[damion]

340-380 MB per episode. they'll come in at (almost) whatever your entire downstream is (quicker than a filesharing network cos you're not restricted by the sharer's upload rate)

Here in the land of tzatziki and sex with goats, connections are not quite what they are in Britain..

:blink:

Fiver says he lives in Bridgewater

:p

 

[Blender Bender]

Ott I thought you enjoyed your visits (and sets) to that little island on the north of the country a couple of years back...

I know the goats were left to roam the place but how they were treated was entirely up to the individual..

If you watch this film, you will become a Communist and murder unborn babies. Do you want to become a Communist? Do you want to murder unborn babies? Of course you don't. But if you watch this film, you will do both of these things and more. You will smoke reefer, you will march in those evil peace rallies with filthy hippies and Satanic liberals, you'll even start hugging trees and dating ethnic minorities. See how insidious this demonic liberal media is? Your very eternal soul is at stake, my friend! Do you want to risk an eternity roasting in the flames of eternal hellfire? Then for God's sake, don't watch this film! You have been WARNED!
