I'm "against" this movie and the countless others like it because they're chock-full of inaccuracies that their followers blindly accept as fact.

To the contrary, the movie's first section was hugely false. Most of the claims made are based on suspicious anecdotal evidence or on no evidence at all. Check this out:

Heh. In my experiences, those who call religious people "fanatics" tend to be quite fanatical themselves. By the way, I'm an atheist, for what it's worth.

Do you see how hypocritical this statement is? Watch, I'm going to take your statement and replace a few words:
"Zeitgeist can convince you that everything they say is the truth and fact or near the truth and fact, but as soon as someone rebutes, and shows examples of wrong doing they are called government sheep. i believe these movies are equal when it comes to conspiracy. Zeitgeist allows you to percieve things how tehy want you to see it. not how it really is. it's pretty much all psychological."
Why do blatant lies become more believable when they are propogated by an internet video?

If you want to know the truth about 9/11, I highly recommend this
Popular Mechanics article.
