As for the rest of the movie I did find it kind of entertaining because conspiracy theories can be fun. It also did provoke me to think about Australia,s monetary system which is basically ...

It's out of the Kings Speech and Winter's Bone.

The Kings Speech will probably get it because in the current economic climate a feel good movie will be more favoured and feel good movies of such excellent quality are rair.

I just watched Zeitgeist the Movie. Here in Australia there seems to be a lot of word of mouth regarding the Zeitgeist movies and lots of people like me are watching them for the first time.
For me there was not much regarding the monetary system that I did not already know. E.g. how bank create ...

I'm an Australian and I thank God for the fact the I live in a country that has a public health system.
