Thanks for the memories!

One of my all time favorites.

Must See Movie...

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

These people seem to have no real understanding of market mechanisms or of personal responsibility. The moment they said that we have an energy shortage already and because of this desalination is not an option, I started rolling my eyes. It goes to show that people who have no understanding of economics should stay away from policy work, because they only screw things up. Of course there are problems with the private companies but this film totally fails to capture the true cores of the problems which have to do with excessive ownership rights, rent seeking and political power.Like usual laymen will love this movie but there's a reason most academics will dismiss it. Just to be clear, there are some valid inventions being talked about though perhaps not market ready yet its just that the these people fail to grasp the concept of adding bottom lines to market mechanisms, such as pigovian taxes, which is likely to be one of the few intelligent solutions and perhaps the most efficient.

Pollution of our fresh water supplies and water rights are extremely important subjects and need to be presented factually and honestly in order to maintain credibility. The subjects are too important to be confused with misrepresentation, misleading, and inflammatory commentary designed to arouse public opinion, and establish the film makers as experts and crusaders in a cause which I have been a part of for more than 35 years.I am a professional environmental engineer working within the Potable Water Industry for my entire life. I have never seen such misrepresentations mixed with just enough true facts for the expressed purpose of attempting to make the entire movie believable. This should be listed as "fiction" not a documentary.Talk about conspiracy theorists. This movie ranks up there with those that think the Moon Landing was faked, your neighbor is a space alien, or that Elvis is still alive and living with Marilyn Monroe in Queens.This is 90-minutes of my life I wish I could get back.

I had the privilege of seeing this film and I was blown away. The subject matter is of grave importance--water is life, without it life can't exist. This film maker knows how to tell a story and make what could be a dry story (no pun intended) into a compelling and motivating one. Malcolm McDowell is also to be commended. His voice lends credence to any subject but water or the lack thereof is a scary one and will have to be confronted sooner or later. I hope later, but after you see this film, you're not so convinced that the future isn't here already. Highly recommended and even more, I think it should be shown in every school in America, if not the world. Bravo Mr. Bozzo.

We can't live without water. You may have thought it was a human right. But certain corporations have been plotting to control the water supply on this planet for a while now, and have been moving into place around the globe. Now the World Bank has required certain governments to privatize their precious water supply -- make it a corporate commodity answerable only to stockholders -- as a condition to getting a loan. In some places it is now illegal to catch rainwater, because rain is being considered private property, including the United States. The evil of this worldwide corporate grab for control of your most precious resource is practically inconceivable, but it is happening. Blue Gold: World Water Wars is a landmark documentary that every school, library and church should own and show. Do you want the cost of your water to be controlled by private corporations and stockholders only interested in their bottom line? Do you want to give up your right to the water around you, including rain? It is time to get educated and get active. Start with this film.
