  The People vs. George Lucas 2010

  Watched 24 Jun 2014

  After watching I'm even more inspired than before by the remix culture that Lucas has enabled!

  As a fan this was enjoyable though I was hoping for some interviews with Lucas himself or people close to him. I would also have liked some more information about Lucas companies, products and product tie ins.

  The film succeeded in making me feel uncomfortable at some of the fans intensity -- on both ends of the spectrum.

  What would the documentary include if extended or redone today (mid-2014)?

  Insomnia 2002

  ★★★½ Rewatched 19 Jun 2014

  Watching it now, I must have watched it before. The story isn't great, but I really like the concept, actors, and most of all the visuals -- the hallucinations and valkyrie wings.

  It sounds like the movie is only a shadow of the game, but I'm not a game player particularly not immersive violent games.

  AKA Tommy Chong 2006

  Watched 02 Apr 2014

  "This government is well-equipped to handle rebels. Yeah. You're free. But not really." Tommy Chong

  I watched this film piece meal over a few lunches over the last week.

  I enjoyed getting to know a little more about the pot people's voice Tommy Chong. There is a lot more I'd like to learn about him, but I think the documentarian chose wisely not to harass Chong with questions during this difficult time in his life and focus on the details…
