Even today about 3 months after watching the film I am still moved beyond words.<br /><br />Funny enough it was one of those I though "argh do I really wanna watch some soppy piece of crap" But it had me hooked within the first 2 minutes. and I DID NOT see it coming. Hit between the eyes. Brilliant film, one of those ones that stay with you inspire you to do your bit in changing the world, and creates compassion in you for these people you have never met and probably never will.Psycho Chocolatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04222572021831407059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7299733418440070627.post-52664240701424779282011-02-22T12:48:09.927-08:002011-02-22T12:48:09.927-08:00lolz,remember folks, I do care, so I do share! ;-)...lolz,remember folks, I do care, so I do share! ;-)Tipsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10834396581834386843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7299733418440070627.post-84908718775915940332011-02-14T05:33:23.673-08:002011-02-14T05:33:23.673-08:00Ok I am feeling slightly sick just from your descr...Ok I am feeling slightly sick just from your description, don't think I could watch it.

I actually lmao when I saw it was nominated. Lets see if it wins althou I wont be surprised if Restrepo get it instead.( due to the whole Iraq factor)Tipsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10834396581834386843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7299733418440070627.post-74322480405217038862011-01-31T02:46:13.137-08:002011-01-31T02:46:13.137-08:00Oh Yes that's why I stopped watching it. the F...Oh Yes that's why I stopped watching it. the French :)will give it a try again as you so clearly loved it.

It was highly entertaining, and sparked of a huge debate between me and the Mr. I hope he will come post his own comments.<br /><br />I'm in two minds about the film. Yes it's original entertaining, and makes you think. But compared to some others we have watched and will hopefully discuss soon enough was it really "important" enough for Oscar material.<br /><br />Did it really make you gulp and consider reality again. Did it jolt you awake, changed your preconceived notions, and make you sit on the edge of your seat, and then made you want to get off that seat and DO something?<br /><br />Yeah I felt like spraying graffiti on a wall for about 5 minutes. Then I realised something. Banksy in the film asks Does Thierry's success show us that the whole world of art is just a Joke?<br /><br />Thierry himself says it is about brainwashing, making people believe something is great by using hype and pop culture.<br /><br />Well I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this film being nominated for an Oscar reinforces once again what a Big Joke "art" has become.<br /><br />If the right hype is created ANYTHING can become art, even when it is so blatantly not created by the "artist" or an even more blatant copy of a front runner's work<br /><br />This is Pop Culture, commercialism is king. And Banksy and all his associates know it. It has become about the Hype, the cool, the "in" thing :) This is FashionPsycho Chocolatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04222572021831407059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7299733418440070627.post-16031403708569393172011-01-27T06:04:26.431-08:002011-01-27T06:04:26.431-08:00Can't comment yet.

How bout having a discussion about the "right" or "wrong" about downloading documentaries <br /><br />What do documentary makers really want? you to buy the DVD or you to see their message?<br /><br />Especially when one could theoretically have seen a docu on TV ( if one lived in the right countryPsycho Chocolatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04222572021831407059noreply@blogger.com
