This is an unbelievable documentary that I recommend anyone to download from the official site.
Great for discussion and brings up many interesting points in regards to religion and the human society as it started thousands of years ago and and evolved as we know it
edit: I ve done some slight reserach about the movie to get a better picture of its credibility. It looks like although some may have some sources to back them up, there are many points that really make you question its credibility in many others.
-
in a word, propaganda.
did you just watch it again (http://psx2central.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39931&highlight=ZEITGEIST)?
-
No. This is the first time. I didnt even remember that thread or bothered to download it.
As for being propaganda, well.....can you really know what is and what is not? how many times do we think that we know?
-
Man that was a waste of time and just plain stupid.
Next you\'re gonna post and go.
" Super-Size ME, a great well thought out documentry" .
Jesus, what a waste of time.

oh thank goodness! The site had a better version of bit torrent for my mac! DL the movie now. Raz.....what\'s this about? I\'m not going to turn into a Scientologist, am I?
-
This has nothing to do with Scientology, but it is incredibly retarded.

No. As I said already to mm, I didnt bother to see what the link in the original was about so I didnt remember it. Thats why I didnt comment anything on the documentary back then.

Honestly, do you need to ask this? Of course he is retarded.

uni, i didn\'t think i needed to say it, but just about EVERYTHING in that movie is glorified to the n\'th degree.
you\'d gain more political information from the garbage pail kids movie.

i thought that documentary was contradicting itself when it says that the governments and banks are feeding us with media News filled with false informations just to make us believe whatever it\'s on tv and makes money out of us.
Isn\'t this Zeitgeist is doing the same thing? making money out of us and have us believe whatever it\'s on that video?

I can not say that necessarily "EVERYTHING" is false, since some of the things mentioned in the movie are things I ve heard and read about previously as well.
For example the "conquer and divide" plans for the middle east is something that was revealed before thoughts of attacking iraq were even revealed explicitly in public.
The movie tends to overreact though and add some more tragedy, often making you question things that may also have some truth in them
The religion part is very questionable for sure. But their point that religion was used to control the masses and it was one of the things that pulled civilization into the dark ages is something I believe a lot, and happens even today almost everywhere. The Empire of Byzantine for example has burnt the Library of Alexandria in the name of Christianity. There the biggest and most important part of written human history and creativity was destroyed and burnt.

I am not sure. Correct me if I am wrong but they seem to distribute the movie freely, even the DVD. I dont know how they got the funds to make this though.
-
if so, how come it said $5 for every disc and another $2 for shipping in U.S.A.? I can understand the $2 shipping. But if they are giving it away for free, why not just say so and let the consumers pay the shipping only?

Didnt see that. The link that directed me towards the main page said that the movie is distributed for free either through downloads or through ordering.
Well it sure seems like a movie that must have had some considerable expenses to make. They are either money hungering charlatans (well they say non-profit) or just trying to cover up the cost of production.
edit: Well below it says
TERMS: THIS MOVIE IS \'COPYRIGHT- GMP LLC 2008\'
HOWEVER, WE ALLOW AND ENCOURAGE IT TO BE DUPLICATED AND GIVEN AWAY FREE.
IT IS NOT FOR RESALE WITHOUT APPROVAL FROM THE CREATOR.
THERE ARE MANY OUT THERE ABUSING THE ALTRUISTIC NATURE OF THIS WORK.
PROFITING FROM THE RESALE OF "ZEITGEIST THE MOVIE" WILL NOT BE TOLERATED.
