Thanks. I was suddenly overcome with emotion for my poor lower-bandwidth former-confederates...

I didn't like the documentary itself too much. I think the abscence of any sort of narration was a big problem with it. It didn't *flow* very well. I think it was a great attempt at an amateur film/documentary, but as a documentary itself, it seems to me to be more of a moving scrapbook of sound bites and clips than a real deep inquiry.

I found it interesting that the "Spudz" guy was so certain in his views on China. I lived *technically* in China, (Hong Kong), so I'm near, but not in there... I just think he's sort of ignoring the kind of media... "selective highlighting" that happens in our society. For more detail on that particular problem... anyone ever seen Wag The Dog? Good movie, in a cheesy way.
