THE YES MEN FIX THE WORLD is a true story about two gonzo political activists who, posing as top executives of giant corporations, lie their way into big business conferences and pull off the world's most outrageous pranks. (Video/Trailer)

Here's their previous film, from 2003.

Seems like the Borats of the business world.

I can't even describe how much I want a Halliburton Survivaball.

I agree with the concept - but respectfully disagree in calling them Gonzo.

So they're like Sasha Baron Cohen if he had harnessed his powers for good instead of evil?

One of the two guys was my professor in college at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. He'd grade our tests in 'invisible ink' and tell us to make sure the answers ended up correct. I think he was destined to move on to other things.

art is the lie that reveals the truth -- picasso.

I hope these two heroes crucify, vililfy and humiliate every last fucking cocksucker "C" level executive out there. Thank you for making this video.

It's currently on HBO and HBO on Demand for anyone who wants to see it.

I've seen some of their work. Awesome.

I remember seeing their movie years ago - it was pretty awesome.

Is this an experiment in social engineering or do they just get lucky?

Comic genius!

I've been on their mailing list for years. They asked to stay on my couch once, but sadly, I had moved and not updated my contact info. Too bad, too bad.

I would love to see it

Downvote if you will, but in all honesty, I hated this movie. I like documentaries and my political sympathies lie with the anti-wto crowd, but this just felt trite, long, and poorly edited. The only part I feel worth watching is the speech in the gold cock-suit which was hysterical. Skip the rest IMHO.

It's going to be on HBO Tomorrow at 9:00AM EST. And on the 7th again, not sure which time.

Chea!

They should open up schools, people might learn something.

I can't decide whether it's awesome and I want to see it or whether it's just going to be cheesy.

Edit: The narration and subtitles are in french.

I had to stop watching about 20 mins in. It was kinda dull, and spare the ideology.

Edit: To be clear, it's not that I don't think corporations are in the wrong, but I don't need an anti-free market lesson or corny blue screen antics to back it up. It was boring. What could have been a few youtube videos.
