Escape from Suburbia

Unread postby PrairieMule » Wed 09 Jul 2008, 15:22:17

It just got released last week on Netflix.

I found it amusing at the time oil was about $70 a barrel. Equally intersting to watch folks pondering what L.A. would be like whe gas reached $4-5 a gallon.

Has anyone else here seen it?

I'm a cyber criminal anarchist. I'll download it via bittorrent. btw, I'm thinking of how I can profit from oil volatility and trading currencies.

It's also available to "watch instantly" if you don't want to wait for it and don't mind the low quality. I liked it even when some moments came off as a little corny.

Never saw it, heard it kinda sucked. Feel free to do the honors: How do I add a new title?

The prequel's there: The End of Suburbia: Oil Depletion and the Collapse of the American Dream

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('TheDude', 'N')ever saw it, heard it kinda sucked.

It's a "solutions" video. Lots of farming and stuff like that.

Got it. Must have been a judgment from one of our resident über-cynics.
