I think we need a time-out on the thread.

Things are getting ratcheted up unnecessarily.

Time for the peacemaker.

hey there
I picked up some interesting documentary films today. One of them I know you will be interested in- it's called "Go Further".

Go Further (2003)
Starring: Woody Harrelson
Director: Ron Mann
Synopsis: A film crew followed actor Woody Harrelson and his friends as they embarked on bio-fuelled bus-ride down the Pacific Coast Highway in order to promote environmental awareness and "Simple Organic Living."
Runtime: 77 minutes
MPAA Rating: Not Rated
Genre: Documentary
Country of Origin: Canada

The other one is called "Metallica Some Kind of Monster":

Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (2004)
Starring: James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett
Directors: Joe Berlinger, Bruce Sinofsky
Synopsis: A documentary crew followed the members of Metallica as they dealt with the aftermath of bass player Jason Newsted leaving the group, singer James Hetfield's rehab, and their near-breakup during the recording sessions of "St. Anger."
Runtime: 120 minutes
MPAA Rating: Not Rated
Genres: Documentary, Indie, Music

Metalica is "cinematic gold" according to Rolling Stone, and it got two thumbs up from Ebert and Roper. It sounds a lot better than "Dig" which was ok, but I got bored after about an hour of nihilistic baby musician whining.
