pahuyuth posted:Resolution and The Endless are in the same universe and share a couple of characters. There's also Spring (which I haven't seen) that I think has loose ties to the other two films. Pretty sure the creative duo behind them have at least one other in-universe film in the works I know, but I thought outright saying that would spoil the holy poo poo moment that I had when the movies crossed paths

A Thousand Junkies on Hulu is not like, life changing or anything, but it scratches that "90s indie slacker movie" itch really well. Great soundtrack too

The Hulu documentary about the Fyre festival is great (Fyre Fraud)

I had somehow completely missed hearing about the festival at all until today and I'm starting to wonder if the whole thing really existed or if these documentaries are part of the scam

Having now watched both, I gotta give the edge to the Hulu Fyre documentary. It pulls way less punches. You can tell the Netflix one was made by people who have an interest in putting the best spin on it they can. Hulu one makes it clear that the dude was a straight up criminal and con man. Netflix one skews too often toward "he just flew too close to the sun" and "but seriously look how good of an idea these things were"

Sarchasm posted:Didn't the Hulu documentary pay the organizer of the festival a six-figure sum to consent to their interview? No idea how much they paid him, but the Netflix one has spin. "In 48 hours they had sold 95% of their tickets" is, at least from the information in the Hulu one, very inaccurate. The Netflix one also kinda makes the Magnesis Card sound like it was cool but flawed, whereas the Hulu one shows you what kind of hilarious losers actually fell for it, etc The Hulu one just generally has way more info, the Netflix one is slicker. I wouldn't say to avoid either of them though, even compromised documentaries can be interesting and the footage is lolworthy

Basebf555 posted:I think paying the guy a few hundred thousand was probably worth it because his interview adds a ton to the documentary in terms of exposing him as the con man he was/still is. The dude has probably already blown that money on bullshit anyway and is onto whatever the next grift is. Yeah his interview segments were hilarious. One wonders how such a bad liar managed to con so many people Also, Ja Rule comes off as a turbo douche

He got jail time for wire fraud Watch the Hulu one, the dude did a lot more than just "put on a lovely music festival". A lot of Jamaican workers straight up never got paid too

Yeah the Hulu one is not even a little sympathetic to him. The Netflix one definitely is a bit though. Also the Hulu one has a lot more on site footage of the fiasco itself

And I'm usually a huge fan of slow burns, not to mention a huge sucker for Post Apoc stuff. I don't think it had a single interesting moment in it. The first 10 minutes are definitely insanely boring, I turned it off

Beyond the Curve. Netflix. Documentary about flat earthers. Starts out annoyingly sympathetic to them, then the whole last hour is dunking on them majestically. Very entertaining.
