I suggest you all watch this film/documentary.

It's in 3 one hour parts.

Some of it, or even all, you may already know. I certainly learned some new facts.

Enlightening, powerful and essential viewing.

It's on Bittorrent by the way.

A film.

R3lik has mentioned it before in one of the 2004 election-related threads.

More information it can be found here:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379225/

edit: Nice trailer.
Definitely going to see this

I like the part where they show multinational corporations representing next to countries such as the UK etc.
Is that a fictional United Nations?

Looks very interesting

it asks the question, if the entity was a person (legally it can be considered one), what kind of person it would be.

The Corporation = Vince McMahon's evil stable, before joining with the Ministry, that was around in the late 90's...

....what?

Jr thinks too much about Wrestling ^^

I bet he was at Manchester to see Raw live some weeks ago

I wasnt, unfortunatly. I'll wait till they get back to Sheffield - it'd be more practical to go to a show where i now live... im soooo lazy.

I finally brought myself to seeing this film and I gotta say I found it quite good. It really made me think about ethics and moral behaviour. The stuff about the milk kinda disgusted me too :p

I just *spooled* (I feel so cool using that word, that I don't care if it's correct or not) super size me ^_^ and watched it to.

It's great too

Definitely need to go see the corporation though.

I hope this type of film is becoming a trend

I really like these, although all the ones I've seen so far (Bowling for Columbine, Fahrenheit 9/11 and Super Size Me) were extremely biased and one-sided.

Yeah, I also like films like these. Definately hope for more of em with a little less bias ;p
