Jeff Skoll: Making movies that make change

[crudhousefull]

He is probably changing more in the right direction than all the others put together. Even though we hate it, there is no way the mainstream media can be ignored. At least three billion people's minds are harnessed by the ideas propogated by that medium

[dmpeters]

He's a fraud or a fool just look a Al Gore and his believing that Al Gore was an honest man ..instead of the fraud that he is and was....not very perceptive I'd say

[MLBinwa]

Wow, what a great man. He's already had a huge impact on helping to wake up Millions of people.

I wish him much success and look forward to seeing all his films.

I just saw that he is an executive producer for Food Inc. Check it out, it's a must see if you care about real food.

Great message for a pop culture society to make a difference using entertainment. We just have to maintain clear minds, and not fall for some that could produce propaganda out of this kind of idea.

[flowthis]

i wonder how it feels like to get a standing ovation of the world's elite.....

Every single voice on this great ball of diverse species, with infinite possibilities on our horizon of thought, good and bad, fundamentally alters our world and makes it different some where, at some time, to some one, to something. Your voices, your Choices, makes this happen, right this second.

[DadLabs]

Love this guy!

[Crazylalalalala]

every one can make a difference true if everyone was a billionaire

[thejobloshow]

A seminar by the producer of An Inconvenient Truth, sponsored by BMW. Who doesn't love free enterprise?

[Coldkilla9]

These youtube videos should be promoted more.

[tetranoob]

Coldkilla9 I just checked your favourites and there were no TedTalks. One great way to promote a video is to give it a high rating, comment it and add it to your favs.

[seanankerr]

If people want to watch stuff like this then they can find it if they look hard enough. Most people would rather watch Paris Hilton getting sick on a dog than something that might actually open their eyes.

[thejobloshow]

And they're free to do so. This is the world we've inherited, you can be flexible to people's desires and spread the good word. There are far too many examples that prove this point.

[koenichfuerst]

If you create propaganda, you have to be careful which ideas you push. You can do good and you can just as well do a lot of harm. Most careful research before making a movie is mandatory.

[MrFrankBullitt]

This guy is pretty cool.

[zappydaman]

That's what happens when the right people get rich.

[amovieman]

nice one

[Philosophickle]

We need more people like him. Good to see the humble come across money.

[frankispassion8]
