If you could force a Freeper to watch one film...

[sampsonblk]

A Freeper foolishly visits your home for dinner, and you can force her/him to watch any movie you please. He's at your mercy. What movie do you choose? (Other than F 9/11)

Edit = typo

[TiredTexan]

1. Orwell Rolls In His Grave

Talk about an amazing movie.

[slinkerwink]

2. Outfoxed or "The Corporation"

[XanaDUer]

3. Mulholland Drive.

N/t.

[Reverend_Smitty]

4. Outfoxed...

However I think that anything I show them won't convince them to see things my way, but there is always a chance that they will see what a sham Faux News is

[mopinko]

5. the hunting of the president

even tho i haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

[whistle]

6. Grapes of Wrath, 1939 film about the great depression....

...it would have a similar effect as the porno movies did to the main character in Clockwork Orange:freak:

[libhill]

7. Inherit the Wind

N/T

[name not needed]

8. Caddyshack 2

[Massacure]

9. Barney.

[rwheeler31]

10. The Sneeches by

Doctor Suess

[enki23]

[theivoryqueen]

12. BOB ROBERTS

[Parrcrow]

36. Ooooh yeah!!

great choice
I second Bob Roberts.

[xray s]

13. Dr Strangelove

The original spoof of the freeper mindset.

[Momof1]

14. Canadian Bacon

I just watched it for the first time the other night. No wonder Michael Moore is so pissed. They stole his script.

(on edit spelling)

[JohnKleeb]

15. Robert Kennedy and His Times

To see what a true hero is.

[rwheeler31]

17. Why would an adult freeper type

come to your house? They need child care.

[JohnKleeb]

19. its called a hypothetical situation

and I am nearly an adult.

[benburch]

16. Empire by Andy Warhol

All 8 hours of it.

No intermissions.

No bathroom breaks.

But all the coffee he can drink, and a cattleprod at the ready in case he falls asleep.

[richmwill]

18. The Big One

To let them see what their favorite corporations have done to American workers.

[Endangered Specie]

20. Star Trek: Insurrection.

[bowens43]

21. The Green Berets ot the Passion of Christ

No matter what they watch they will never change their minds so they may as well watch something that will make them feel good.

[libhill]

26. Right - lol

With that great line by John Wayne - 'Wall, just yank him right off of there, Pilgrim".

[The Great Escape]

22. Pleasantville

This town reminded me of Freeperville...until Reese Witherspoon's charachter seduces Skip Martin and upsets their "perfect" world.

[sampsonblk]

29. Why not the Great Escape?

One of my favorite films of all time!

[The Great Escape]

31. It's My Favorite Movie As Well....

I don't know if a freeper would recognize the comparison between theirselve and Colonel von Luger!

[DS1]

23. If I can smoke him up - Blade Runner, if not

The Insider I that back, my *if ixnay on the opemay* answer would be one of the following:

• Heaven & Earth
• Salvador
• JFK

Yes, I'm on an Oliver Stone kick.

[freetobegay]

24. Diary of Ann Frank.

[Bozita]

25. "Being There" -- A Peter Sellers masterpiece

Definitely a prescient story line.

[MissMillie]

32. Without a doubt!

Good pick!

[Bozita]

35. "I like to watch"

[pansypoo53219]

27. being there

george as chauncy

[Bozita]

40. ahemmm ... Dubya IS Chauncey without the pleasant disposition

Actually, I'd rather have a beer with Chauncey.

[TlalocW]

28. Manos: The Hands of Fate

One of the worst movies in the world and rated as the worst or near worst by IMDB.com aficionados. The project of a fertilizer salesman from El Paso, the camera used could only take 25 seconds of film at a time with no sound, which was dubbed in later. The bad guy's henchman was supposed to be a satyr, but you never saw his feet - there is one scene where a woman looks down at his feet and gasp, but they don't show them. So his distinguishing characteristic was that he had abnormally huge thighs. Just plain bad. Oh, and the freeper would have to watch it without the crew of Mystery Science Theater 3000 making fun of it.

If a freeper is going to come over to my house and eat my food, then he's going to suffer at my hands. :)

[Murdock]

30. Ohh Good topic..

I'd go with Grave of the Fireflies..it's animated, but absolutely impossible to watch without breaking down and crying..

[sampsonblk]

33. I say ROOTS

I have challenged a uhhh...CHALLENGED friend to watch the entire movie Roots with me and my family. IMHO, seeing that - for himself - might clear up some misconceptions.

The more I think about it, he could never sit through all that pain and suffering. It would probably blow his mind to know that black people haven't had lived the easy welfare life "as long as anyone can remember."

[PittPoliSci]

34. roger and me.

i like it, and i haven't seen it in a while.

[RFKHumphreyObama]

41. This would have been my choice as well

Or maybe "Bowling for Columbine"

[kodi]

37. 12 angry men. he would identify with a few of the characters

the lee j cobb character for sure.

[RandomKoolzip]

38. Falling Down.

Oh, wait, he's probably seen that one many many times already......(oh, you poor white males...when will you ever get a break?!)

My real answer: Putney Swope.

Or American Splendor.

[Rowdyboy]

39. "Beautiful Thing" a gay coming of age film with tender same-sex make-out

scenes and an awesome soundtrack.

[Rhiannon12866]

42. I don't know why you are excepting F 9/11

I think this should be required viewing for all Freepers. They need to be shown the truth and I am so very sick and tired of hearing them dismiss this film as "lies," and then admit that they haven't even seen it.:grr:

[sampsonblk]

43. Because that would be everyone's answer

That would be kinda boring.
