Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Walter Sloane Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

a_baron "Money As Debt II" is an improved version of "Money As Debt". In spite of the animation, this is not a cartoon but arguably the most important film you will see in your life because it tackles the most important subject of our and every previous era as far back as the dawn of recorded history.In this world with one big and two small exceptions, nothing is physically possible unless it is financially possible. The big exception is war; governments can always find money for that, as is made clear here. Money dominates all our lives, but what is it? In the modern world it is mostly blips in cyber-space.Herein, Paul Grignon explains in simple language for the intelligent layman, housewife and schoolboy how the money system really works and how it should work, just don't give too much credence to his advocacy of digital currency (ie Bitcoin). The global financial system is nothing but the biggest Ponzi scheme ever devised, one that has been operating way before the birth of Charles Ponzi in 1882.What is the difference between bank-created credit and counterfeiting? Semantics. You should have no problem understanding this film, but don't be afraid to watch it again. And again. And again...

ejtaylor45 Think about living your life blind from birth and then one day getting some sight back. That's what watching "Money As Debt" I, II, and III did for me. Then "The Money Masters" helped, too. No big audiences for these movies, but IMHO, this stuff should be in every school. It will help you live better and it might even save your life. Or your kids' lives. Bold statements. But you can't protect yourself from an enemy you can't see and don't know about. Watch and learn about the people who get rich by making you work harder and end up with less. Here's a hint: It's not who you think it is. They're good at hiding. Schools won't teach you about them, either. I studied Economics, Government and Finance at some of the best schools, but this stuff somehow wasn't part of any course. Why does it get left out? Watch and learn. This is stuff we don't *know* we don't know about. That makes us blind and helpless, which is the way some people like it. Presidents of the United States have been killed to keep us that way. There's lots more, but once you've seen these first 4 movies, you'll know where to look and you'll be able to find lots more. I'm not going to make this review any longer. But please, watch these *great* movies!

ambrosia_1 The follow-up to the original "Money as Debt", which explained the origins of the modern day "fractional reserve system" and modern banking. This follow-up focuses on more modern-day banking and the effect the money supply has on the economy. Produced in 2008 and released in 2009, you will be amazed at just how well this film predicted our current (2011) financial crisis.Both films may sound incredibly dull, but the producers explain things using simple cartoon characters and animated diagrams to keep you interested. While the quality of the static cartoons and animation in both films is quite poor, you don't watch a film like this expecting Fantasia.If you are into history & politics, you will find this sequel almost as fascinating as the first. My only criticism: This sequel does repeat the myth that "it took World War II to finally pull us out of the Great Depression"... a surprising economic blunder for such a detailed film (if war provides such an economic boom, explain the fact the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have had a devastating economic effect on the U.S. today?) But once you get past that huge blunder, the remainder is quite accurate.Fascinating to the point of horrifying, "Money as Debt II" is nearly every bit as good as the original.
