While my school teachers have always told me that Rome suddenly fell through one Barbarian invasion, just recently I had to find out this wasn’t actually the case at all.

But how did I stick to that idea anyway? Was it for Hollywood? No even French made those movies. Okay, some sites[warning:Nazi site], clearly didn’t have their facts straight, but with National Geographic posting those pictures and art like this… How did the so-called highly civilized cosmopolitan city disappear?

That Roman Culture didn’t just leave I found out because, the Byzantine Empire (the old Eastern Roman Empire) conquered Rome back.

Not exactly a splashing good quality rip, also some bad music to bite through but the info in it is even more shocking than imagined. (thx hjd)

nodog:
Fascinating program about the esoteric side of the nazi’s, rather sensationally called Hitler’s search for the Holy Grail. Don’t be put off by the title though. It’s really quite good with lots of interesting stories, interviews and archive material.

China – lack of civil rights [5 min], video was taken by a team of foreigners working for Sky TV. They were stopped several times by police during the shooting and had to capture some of this video at night in order to avoid confrontation.
BUSTED – The Citizen’s Guide to Surviving Police Encounters [46 min], BUSTED realistically depicts the pressure and confusion of common police encounters. In an entertaining and revealing manner, BUSTED illustrates the right and wrong ways to handle different police encounters and pays special attention to demonstrating how you, the viewer, can courteously and confidently refuse police searches.

Nodog: Thx to a tip from Braad in the comments of an earlier Och-post I’ve been watching the excellent 9/11 Press for Truth. Check it out, the best 9/11 docu so far, especially interesting in the light of the title of this post.

nodog: If we can post Weekendmovies on thursday, we surely can post a TV-Thursday in the weekend! Check these guys: The Dudesons. They’ve been on Bam Magera’s show before so fans know what to expect.
I just watched the first episode of their TV-series and it’s pretty wild and luckily much less irritating than Dirty Sanchez (another Jackass clone). All kinds of torrents (including their movie) here. Enjoy!

Cucumbertime is behind us so here’s a new TV-Thursday episode.

nodog:
Top Ten Metal is a silly old program about the top ten best selling metal acts. A bit of glam, a bit of sham, a bit of slam, bam thank you mam….well… we all know 80’s metal. there’s some footage of 70’s bands also so even recommended for serious metalfans.
Quite a big download but it’s worth it: Demonoid | Torrentspy.

Chocotofferts:
Hacking has been done for a long time, well now there’s another google
movie about it, nice. Have “how to make a beat” with that too. (both via).

Panasonic youth | Unretrofied | Setting Fire To Sleeping Giants | Sugar coated sour
Bonus:
Making the “Irony is a dead scene” EP (with Mike Patton).

Mikhail:
Not really a movie, but i found some rare vids on Youtube while i was looking for some rare footage. Excellent edited video, looks real enough for me to think they are actually singing it.
Metallica – The Unforgiven 2 LIVE! (Rare video because they never play this song live) and a very funny edited video of Creeping death and some rare footage from Nirvana.

ThE_ED:
Metal Schmetal. So here is one of the most controversial sitcoms instead, just 1 episode was aired although they already recorded eight. A sitcom about Adolf Hitler meeting Chamberlain and having trouble with his jew neigbours the Goldensteins was maybe something tooo. Nevertheless it’s here for you on youtube in two parts.

Jup retro. GO HERE.

Let’s start with a video that makes it clear how much of an art turtablism really is. First we see 3 lutsers on the job and then master Q-Bert shows how it’s done.
Kid Koala should be known by now, here’s a great vid of him playing trumpet with his turntable.
Here’s a demonstration of how to scratch in combination with software, another branch on the tree of turntablism. update: pt.2 is even better.
Finally Scratch, most people interested in turntablism will have seen it but if not, this is verplichte kost. Torrent @ Demonoid | Torrentspy

Nodog: The tour is underway and getting into it’s final fold. It’s offseen for the riders while the man with the hammer is always near.
These last couple of days have been pure “glued to the screen and/or FBSC-with-Rams’-live-commentary” entertainment and like the live coverage isn’t enough, here’s some more tubefilling[/seth] for the fans:

-Greatest Climbs (1990-1999) (with atrocious commentary and background music, still good though!) (dem | tor)
-Overcoming (superb docu about CSC-team in the tour) (dem | tor) + extra’s (dem | tor)
-Earlier posts on Och (wicked stuff!)

-I won’t be there but of course I want to bycarry my pebble for a well functioning OMGWTFBBQ. Here’s a program that very thouroughly explains the ins and outs of the BBQ and the tech involved. Get it at Demonoid | Torrentspy. I do hope someone will make good use of this and all of you BBQ-hallwayers have a *plop*ping good time!

-Probably the main news this week was the death of Syd Barrett. The Pink Floyd and Syd Barrett Story is the best docu I’ve ever seen about him. Proper version @ Demonoid | Torrentspy.

Joid:
Also I am, unfortunatly, a big offhooker. But in return I give all the OMGWTFBBQ’ers 12 minutes and 54 seconds to get through the hard moments the day after. So *plop* also one in from me, and recover the next day with this astonishing kind of television.

I was a little too young in the 70’s to be aware of the terrorcampaign of the RAF in Germany. This BBC-docu fills a big gap in understanding the phenomenon with lots of archive-material plus interviews with (ex-)RAF members and leading politicians of those days. Well-made, objective and very interesting. Get “In Love With Terror” at Demonoid | Torrentspy

Vinnie:
“Bubble” is a short film about isolation in urban life. In a parallel universe where people breath water, not air, peoples’ heads are surrounded by clear bubbles that are filled with water – completely submerging the head.

Nodog: Not exactly the best program I ever dumped here but the bow can’t always be tensed. Inside Spontaneous Human Combustion is presented by Bruce Dickinson. He does it quite well so Maiden fans with a knack for Fortean subjects… this one’s for you!
Demonoid | Torrentspy

ThE_ED: See also this übertorrent ofcourse. You cannot talk about spontaneous combustion without mentioning The Tap. Did somebody say Dickinson? Not very spontaneous combustion but very Bruce indeed is the documentary ” Flying Heavy Metal” (Yes about planes.) Nodog and others can watch it in the reruns or just go to torrentspy. (If only there were seeders… )

Vinnie:
Video clips that makes me combust are from rednecks who hail the war, e.g. kinda music vids like this one “Die Terrists Die” Although the music rocks I prefer a more realistic view like this one “This Is Your WAR” and this one “Young Americans don’t want to go home” War is pretty sick and scary

This is a shocking but great experimental short music video “Killing of America”

Nodog: Last week in BBC’s great docu-series Money Programme a very interesting take on the Big Brother theme. Especially noteworthy is the footage of Rotterdam’s Baja Beachclub. The club and it’s clientele is disgusting enough as it is, but what’s happening there now does take it to a whole new level of shittyness.

Nodog: Last month UK’s Channel4 did a theme-week about the maffia. part of it was a series of programs containing “The Real Goodfella”, “The Real Sopranos” and “The Godfather and the Mob”.

I’m still in PIL-mode so to stretch up the series a bit, here’s a torrent with a couple of videos. Two tv-show performances (including the infamous American Bandstand one) and the Live in Tokyo video. This last one is especially worthwhile due to the intercut videofootage. PIL at this point is just Johnny and a hired band so musically it’s not that exciting. However, it’s still a worthwhile dld just to see him in a Zen-garden moaning about it being boring.

Of course, our goal of recruiting as many gifted female engineers as we can also means encouraging young women who are still in school.

Shot over seven years by filmmaker John Dullaghan, this intimate portrait of writer Charles Bukowski reveals a tortured man who survived years of abuse to produce some of the most influential prose of his generation. Packed with interviews with friends and colleagues, the film also showcases rare footage culled from every phase of Bukowski’s past, including a few of his more explosive public readings in the 1960s. Quite a big download, but well seeded and absolutely worth your while.

Anyone remember these three slogans?

WAR IS PEACE

Not so long ago a movie called V for Vendetta was released starring none other than John Hurt as Adam Sutler the dictator.

John Hurt is off course also the man playing the role of Winston Smith in Michael Radford’s version of Nineteen Eighty-Four.

Food Jammers is a new series which mixes two of the most annoying genres on TV: Cooking and DIY. Strangely enough they pull it off quite well, probably because it’s just fun watching these canadian slackers doing their thing.
