Description The true, stranger-than-fiction, adventure of eight visionaries who in 1991 spent two years quarantined inside of a self-engineered replica of Earth's ecosystem called Biosphere 2. The experiment was a worldwide phenomenon, chronicling daily existence in the face of life threatening ecological disaster and a growing criticism that it was nothing more than a cult. The bizarre story is both a cautionary tale and a hopeful lesson of how a small group of dreamers can potentially re-imagine a new world.

I like documentaries that aren't so predictable and involve a lot of subject matter. The subjects are very serious and I feel this documentary doesn't touch on that. It is a well structured documentary about science and everything that surrounds science. There are too many documentaries on the subject. A lot of the people involved have very strong opinions about science. I don't agree with them. The documentary is a bit pretentious in places and if you aren't a science geek you will be thinking, "what?" The good news is that the science in this documentary is quite interesting and some of the people are very knowledgeable. I'd recommend this documentary to science and science geeks. It is very well made and I would recommend it.

SPACE TRAIN is an excellent film about the extent to which the American public will go to see a movie and when it might not be so good as advertised. There is a great deal of controversy in the way the film has been edited and if it had been released in its original form it might have generated some much-needed publicity for the film. But the attempt to cover a broad range of topics in this film is the result of the directors intent on calling attention to something that no one cares about. It's the fact that there is an alien that is preying on earth in this film and it's not like any other alien film out there. It's a fully developed alien who has developed a culture and a complete understanding of the earth. It's been classified as a "composite" alien. Some people are calling this a "pathetic" film because of this. What we're left with is an excellent movie that is only really about the alien and what it wants. The film is made up of six chapters that deal with the issue of "art" and "culture". It's well-written and the filmmaking is strong. The film is by no means a masterpiece but it is the most interesting of the seven films I have seen this year. It's just a shame that we have to wait for the DVD version to watch it.

While the documentary was originally done on a documentary format, the graphics have been digitally enhanced for the cinema experience. The movie was brought to us by Jim Henson's Creature Shop, so we know that this movie is an unarguable inspiration for the science fiction movies of today. It's not just the bright colors, but also the color schemes of the ship. With a huge range of colors, the colors of the ship don't stand out at all. However, you get the sense that it really is a spaceship, and not a room in a video game. I think this is one of the most effective ways of presenting this. It's a film that can be considered to be accurate to a film. The film shows us the world that we live in, without being too political. It's simply about the world we live in, how we live in it, and how we affect it. The ending of the movie is also incredibly inspiring. We have this unarguable story of a family and a mom's journey to make a choice for her son, that can inspire many people. The biggest disappointment is the lack of movies by other former Disney personalities that I would be interested in seeing. I like Andy Puzder, but I don't really like him. However, this film made me really appreciate him. However, the animation is amazing. You get this sense that it really is a movie, and not some pixelated space animation.

Who would have ever thought that the man who wrote the magnificent book about his own childhood experiences on Earth, would be interviewed on a ship carrying only 17 people! This was a wonderful film, showing many of the world's cultures in a fascinating and entertaining way. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It also made me very aware of my own life. I have become a bit more attuned to my own experiences, my own place in the world and how we treat one another. I would highly recommend this film to anyone.

I've never seen a documentary in the theater before, so I had no expectations of what I would see. And yet, in the end, I was disappointed. The movie began slow. The introduction to the story, the project itself, and the trailer were the strongest points of the movie. It kept your interest and kept it up for the entire movie. The film was very informative and took you through the project as it was happening, as if you were an observer of the project. It was interesting, it was a documentary, it was cinematic, and it was art. I left the theater wanting to visit the planet for myself. To see, for myself, how artists come together to create a special environment for mankind, and for mankind's beauty and delight in this place. If you want to learn about the space project, this is the documentary for you. If you want to see a documentary about a private organization's vision for a world outside of the Earth, watch this movie. I highly recommend it.

With an introduction that explains how these robots work, how they make their billions, the scientific details about how they fight and behave and the humour that they have made into them, this film is for all the viewers that wanted to know more about these amazing robots that are probably not here yet. The film is a drama of which one of the main actors is the robot that has been named Tucker, played by James Earl Jones. Tucker is really a robot that doesn't have a human mind, but has the ability to learn new things by watching movies. He is trained by his director that has programmed Tucker, his programming that has been set to learn new things. With the robots in there keeping up with the people that are talking to them, it is kind of a mixture of everything that was discussed during the films dialogue, with the robot acting a little bit of it to make it more realistic, and all the communication. All of the different groups that work in this organization are represented by people like Admiral William McRaven (Robert Patrick), Director Harrison Wells (Patrick Dempsey), Director Jeffrey Toomim (Kathryn Erbe) and he main executive Amanda Rogers (Linda Cardellini), who is a leading scientist at the NASA Center for Advanced Robotics. The story is just a little bit long but in all of it it has something that makes it different than any other one. It is one of the greatest sci-fi movies of all time that all people should see and enjoy. In this film, some of the performances are really amazing and it is really amazing how they have been put in such a good situation where they have all had to do everything that a regular human being has to do. This is why this film is really important for all people that want to be scientifically educated and understand these amazing robots.

I can't recommend this documentary highly enough. The special effects of '2001' and the original 'Jurassic Park' are not only epic, they are special. Just seeing the effects of the raptors in 'Jurassic Park' really felt like seeing a big dinosaur in a movie. Now that I have seen 'Spaceship Earth' I can see that the special effects in '2001' and the original 'Jurassic Park' are just amazing. It's amazing that they could make those effects that close to reality. The story in 'Spaceship Earth' is just amazing. This is what I am looking forward to in all my future sci-fi and horror movies. The subject matter of the movie is interesting. I could not believe how easy it was for the aliens to defeat the native people. I don't know how they can find these individuals and have them up and running to do what they are doing. If there is anything that really hurts the movie, it is that the alien's are too cool. You know how all the alien's in 'Alien' and the rest of the films are just too stupid to realize that they are going to lose. I believe that in the future, there will be films that have aliens win the war and all the human's die. This will become the new normal. I think that will make the movie great.

As one of the first people to see this film I was impressed, a lot of science fiction has been turned into movies, some are good, some are bad. In fact I have seen so many bad ones that I can't even begin to name them. I like science fiction and that's what this movie is about. I recommend this film to anyone who wants to learn more about the science fiction genre and the science behind it. In short, it is a must see. 8/10.

This is an excellent documentary, beautifully filmed and narrated, showing how far humanity has come in the last century. The people interviewed are very inspiring, the main theme is about how one planet has become the heart of all our efforts to overcome hunger, diseases and the denial of global warming, and how this change has not been shown in the media, but has been the result of your actions and reactions. The footage is very compelling, at the very end you feel you are back in the times of a hundred years ago. This is a film worth watching, and is the best I've seen for a long time.

If you enjoy science fiction movies, check this out. It is a bit long, but entertaining. The film covers the entire history of the space program. There are no explosions, no high school science experiment, just history. I did not see the documentary on the Discovery channel. I was able to watch it on DVD, and was surprised to find the real footage. This movie is not to be missed.

The movie is divided into two parts. The first is the documentary, which tells us how NASA has been, and has been doing, to find a suitable place for the artificial intelligence. The second part is about how humans should live, as they will need it in the future, which is also shown through holographic films. I had seen a number of these in the past, which meant that I had developed a good knowledge about this subject. The film is good, but the problem is the way they have put it together. They have tried to keep the dialogue in focus, but have taken it for granted, and kept the attention from the audience. I think it is a great idea, but the fact that there are too many aspects of this topic is really annoying. I like to keep my thoughts to myself, but this has made me think a lot about the topics I might have discussed in my lectures, and had me wondering if I should or shouldn't share it with the audience. The fact that I have to share something that is important to me has made me frustrated.

This is the movie of the year. It's an international documentary by New Zealand filmmaker Simon Willenson about one of the most interesting and controversial artists in history - Pablo Picasso. In 1966, he decided to create a new type of painting that he would be called "Le Coeur d'Or". This painting had to do with the story of the human being, and was a true homage to Picasso's mother. When his mother died of cancer, Pablo Picasso decided that he should also die. He began the process of "the Last Supper", and gave a painting that he would never see again, as well as he wanted to be remembered. All of this was done in his studio in Picasso's native Spain. Once again, he would take a new painting from his collection, create a new one, then give it to his mother. The album that this is a film of, is a new version of his painting, called "La Vita e Me", and it is a work that is not being sold. It is, however, one of the most recognizable paintings in the world. It is a picture of a woman standing, and she is speaking to a boy in a very personal way, telling him about her life. This is the only time that Picasso said this to the public. After this, he began to do his life's work of death. The documentary then focuses on the photographer John Hurt, who was the first person to photograph this painting. John also spoke about this painting. The interviewees were French, and the director was an American, so that the audience could be able to understand the meaning of it. In conclusion, this is the most important documentary of the year, and it is a must see for everyone. It is also one of the most thought provoking. The movie contains some amazing, artistic and artistic interviews. The director Simon Willenson is a great documentary filmmaker. I have seen his film on a number of occasions, and I always learn something new. I recommend this film to anyone who is into art, or even just art in general. The film itself is great, and I highly recommend it to everyone. Rating: 8/10

I have never seen a documentary before about the science of space travel. That is a shame, because this is a story I am very familiar with, and should be more widely known. The title is very apt because the film is about an exciting experiment on the International Space Station. I like the story line, and the story the film tells, but I feel there is a lack of science information. The movie goes a little out of its way to tell the story of what happens during a series of spacewalks, but I think that was to keep it in the spirit of the film. It did seem to get a little tedious at some points, and that is to be expected of a documentary. The main problem I have with the film is the lack of information on the space shuttle Columbia, which went to the moon in 2003. The shuttle was the only one that had the ability to provide communication between Earth and the moon, so the movie shows astronauts chatting with each other in space and in Earth orbit, but no one is talking to the shuttle Columbia. The film goes on to explain that the shuttle Columbia was the first and only to have an unmanned orbital flight, so it was definitely the highest priority of the space program. Yet the film doesn't say that, and I do feel like there should have been more information on the Columbia, particularly since it is the only shuttle in the world to have such a mission. The biggest fault with the film is the lack of information on the space shuttle Challenger. It went to the space station, but the film doesn't even mention that, and I feel like there should have been more information on the Challenger because it was the first shuttle in history to have a fatal accident. The film has a number of great scenes, such as when the shuttle Columbia comes to rest in the ocean, the sequence on the Space Shuttle Atlantis in space, the events on the International Space Station, and the scenes of the astronauts on the shuttle Columbia before they return to Earth. I think the makers of the film need to take a little bit more time to understand the shuttle Columbia and the events that led to it's tragic accident.

First of all, I have never seen Star Wars. I was 10 when it was released and I never really got into it. But I liked the movies for the first hour and a half, but by the time I came out of the theater, I was really not into it at all. I have never watched a movie for over 2 hours. This movie really makes you think. It does not rely on a lot of special effects and more on the characters and their interactions. There are some great scenes in the movie like the fireballs, the guy in the jungle getting trapped, the subway, and the scene where there are 2 cops in the subway trying to protect the subway car. It was worth the money to see it in the theater. Now I've never been so completely sucked into a movie, it felt like I was on the ship. This is a movie about the effects of change in society, its the effects of globalization and the effects of technology. And that is why it is so important. You may not like it, but you have to remember that these effects will happen in your lifetime. I am giving it an 8 out of 10, its definitely worth seeing. You should definitely watch it, I hope you enjoy it. I hope you enjoyed it, but if not, please feel free to email me. And for those who have read this far, thanks for reading.

I saw the 'All You Can Eat' dinner theater program on the Sci-Fi Channel. The program had some great pieces of video history. This one, this one on the big screen, was made by the Institute for the Future of Entertainment, a prominent video game studio based in New York. That is the subject of this featurette, a four-part documentary on the very seminal game "Space Invaders." Space Invaders was the first video game to use the famous space theme music. One of the things that makes the game so interesting is that it's as much about cultural ideas as it is about just looking at the screen. The whole experience is based on the gameplay and the memory that plays in the players' minds. "Space Invaders" is one of the first video games I ever played, and it's pretty amazing how it shaped my lifelong sense of what video games are about. Watching the film, you'll see that the game has a lot of historical significance, and also that it has a lot of "old school" heritage that was often overlooked in the 20th century. The game is a cornerstone of video game culture and represents a milestone in the history of game development. The video game companies, it's interesting to note, were based on real game studios in Hollywood, and this one was pretty much the start of the company. The film has some great interviews with some of the developers and game historians, and it's definitely worth watching. The production value is very good, with lots of locations, backgrounds and in-game sequences, and the interviews with those involved with the game are great. The fact that the film is based on the game makes it even more interesting to watch. The game seems like a natural subject for the film, and it's only fitting that the director was also the producer of the game. The film will definitely appeal to fans of the game, as well as game-makers, fans and movie makers in general. Space Invaders was made for adults, and it's great to see that it's still popular, and that it's a great game.

I don't understand why people are so quick to jump on this movie. For what it is, a documentary, it's very well made and I loved watching it. The facts are well presented, the atmosphere is perfect, the interviews with the scientists and the artists are very interesting and I think this documentary will open many eyes. I loved the soundtrack which had a great mix of music from around the world, it was very atmospheric and fantastic. The documentary was divided into two parts, the first part is really boring and if you watch it that way, I guess you might enjoy it, but if you just want to be entertained, skip it. If you like documentaries about UFO's or geophysics, this is definitely the documentary for you.

Here we go again with a movie that has a core message that is just going to be drowned in critics. The movie is about a cast of people who set out to find the answers to some basic questions about our existence and the nature of our universe. It's about finding truth and having to live with that truth. It's about sharing and listening and having to think about our own existence and the mystery of our place in the universe. It's about being who you are and what you want to be and being open to how you know that you are and how you make it through life. I enjoyed the film immensely. It had a lot of depth and some really interesting concepts. And it was nice to see a movie that didn't attack religion, sex, or politics. This is not an anti-religion movie. It's just a movie that explores the mysteries of life and the unknown, and the ability to know yourself and what you can know and know. A movie with a bit of an edge. A movie that is great for discussing and discussing with friends. It's not a movie for a lot of people, however, because you'll need to have a bit of a mystery about yourself to get into it. The movie has its moments of truth and creativity and also some of the most boring moments in a movie I've ever seen. But this is a movie that is very important and I recommend it highly. It's one of the best films I've ever seen and will be one of my favorites for many years to come.

Okay, here's my thought: this documentary about the British invasion of New Guinea and later of the Australian mainland in the late 1800s was extremely important to the indigenous people of Australia, including the aborigines. One important and high-profile story was about the local natives massacred by the Brits. It's hard to say who was the bigger killer, the British or the aborigines, who then fled the country, a better fate than they could have been; however, it seems that they were almost the entire population of the place. There's a difference between refugees and enemies. If the aborigines had settled down, managed to be respected by the locals, and maintained a civilization, it is possible that they might have won in the end. Their own choices may have been the most important. The aborigines clearly didn't go along with their colonizers, who took away their food supply. They also didn't fight back. A lot of them were massacred or tortured, but the death rate was low. It was a different situation, one that could have been very good for the aborigines. I think there is room for discussion on the basis of the aborigines' point of view, and this documentary was very well done. I think the film is most interesting, and I give it a rating of 8. This is an excellent film, and I recommend it.

Saw the documentary "I will change the world" and really enjoyed it. Spoke about a lot of things from the documentary and even some of the themes were touched upon, such as the global warming and how it is not caused by humans. That is why the documentary is so important. All the various areas were touched upon. With regards to the documentary, it was very interesting to see some of the cast from the show reminiscing about their roles on the show, especially Richard's role. I also enjoyed the featurette of Tash's daughter from the movie, of which she was not at the time the featurette was made, which I saw later. Overall, the documentary is a very important documentary to watch and watch again. It is an interesting story about how the personalities of some celebrities are affected by their roles on the show, and how it affects them. So many people I know who have watched the show on the way up and many who have seen it on the way down, have commented on how the show changed their lives in many ways. I highly recommend watching this film and making your own opinion.

This documentary was a treat. It starts out as an argument between real life geologists and professional scientists who think that the earth is flat and that humans must be at least 6,000 years old, but instead follows the views of a small group of self-proclaimed experts who claim that they are in possession of the last 40 years of scientific evidence proving the earth is flat, and that the idea of God exists. These men and women go on about the decline of civilization, the fall of the Roman Empire, the downfall of the New World Order, the collapse of the Soviet Union, the rise of the Islamic Caliphate, and so on. They are certainly not out of touch with modern scientific evidence, but they are certainly preaching a very strange idea, and I found myself amazed by the zeal and zealotry of these people. I was afraid that I wouldn't like this film, but I found it to be incredibly entertaining and educational. And it had a great voice-over by Colin Powell. The scientists and experts are absolutely horrible people. They are greedy and evil and the ones they are speaking about are just going about their business, their lives and not giving a hoot about anybody else. That's why I felt that the world of these individuals is so frustrating and hollow. But the science in this documentary is one of the best I've seen in a long time. I loved the way they played it up to its logical conclusion, as if these people really were scientists. I love the idea that God exists. I love the fact that this documentary made it impossible for me to dismiss the existence of God. There are so many of us who believe in God, and I think that God exists, and that the notion that the universe is 6,000 years old is ridiculous. It's one of the few ideas I find the most frustrating. I'd have to believe in God to dismiss the idea that the universe is 6,000 years old. But this film has made me think, and that's one of the best things a documentary can do. I hope the people who watched this will think about the things they believe in and see this film and think. This is a wonderful documentary that I highly recommend.

It was a fascinating film to watch, and I was surprised to see that it didn't do the critics any favors. That being said, I felt it was definitely worth a watch, and if you're looking for a different take on space exploration, look no further. This film is at its best when focusing on how one man's perspective on an interesting subject is at odds with the opinions of some of the people around him, and it was interesting to see how his opinion and the opinions of others were dealt with as the documentary progressed. Some of the parts that annoyed me the most were when he started to develop a love of the craft and how he tried to become a part of the crew, but eventually realized that his life was really boring. That being said, this film was a little too slow in some parts, especially when it comes to the end. The documentary was much more entertaining than I had expected it to be, but there were some parts that made me feel a little uncomfortable because of how their opinion on the subject seemed to contradict each other.

This is a well written documentary that exposes what was a historical tragedy. Our brains have been conned into believing that the earth is flat, with life on it's way in the billions of years. This documentary documents some of the evidence of that that is seen in photographs, such as the spiral in the ground, and photos of the earth's surface. It is fascinating to see that it is not a flat earth, but that in fact our entire planet was brought to our eyes and life on it's way in the billions of years. It is very sad to know that humans are causing this to occur and that we are the cause of it. Unfortunately we will never see it coming. They do a great job of saying that it was supposed to be a flat earth. The beginning was a little slow, but after it went into details of the evidence of the evidence it took off. It has a great message, it is not just an American documentary, and it will make you think about how you view the world. It is a shame that it was not as popular as this film. This documentary is well done, and it shows the truth of the earth. I hope to see more documentaries of this nature in the future.
