It's "a documentary film about copyright and remix culture." It starts off by introducing us to Girl Talk, a mash up artist, that uses many songs all together and mixes them into a brand new song. He's undoubtfully talented, but is considered a criminal by today's justice system. The movie interviews one of Metallica's band members, as he approves the copy right laws. The movie also talks about Disney and how evil it is. It's a truly epic movie that you should all see. It's actually epic from minute one as it starts up very fast.

Seems really cool. I do love me some remixes of some of my favorite songs.
Need a movie forum. Or rename GD to General Discussion About Stuff and Films. Looks good though, I love me some good documentaries.
Only two people interested? O_O Guys, this movie is truly epic. It rips on Disney like no other, along with other things.
I'm at blockbuster. I'm gonna rent it.
