New Section Debate: Nature Of Humanity



I have been thinking of adding new sections. I have decided that one would very much work in the group: Nature of Humanity.

The idea of the group is to have documentries and historical retellings, or just plain visual metaphore about the way humans are good or bad. Things that come to mind is 2001, Clock Work Orange, The Yes Men, The Coperation, Koyaanisqatsi, ect.

I would just like to know what the current group thinks before I approve anything.

Why do you need group approval?  You are the one who started the group!  I don't see why anyone would be upset for adding things.

While I am the creator, I am also not an asshole. Since you all joined my group you have say, and I will never do anything that is againced the wishes of the group.

So then, I will add the section shortly.

I didn't mean to insinuate that you are an asshole!  But I just can't imagine why it would be against anyone's wishes to add new lists and features.  That's what people look for in a group I think.

Re: New Section Debate: Nature Of Humanity



Rather than debate the power stucture of a Spout group, I'll suggest a weirdly wonderful film that I think probes the depths of human nature:

 Being John Malkovich



     
Under discussion:

Being John Malkovich  (1999)

Re: New Section Debate: Nature Of Humanity



It's an interesting way to categorize films. From this perspective you could link something like Clockwork Orange, as you mentioned, to a film like Wisconsin Death Trip. So the basic idea is: films that explore humanity's commentary on itself?
