If The Flaming Lips have had an accidental career, then this documentary is indeed an accident as well. After combing through 400 hours of footage, The Fearless Freaks is at last fully realized.
@Kay Luge: What do you listen to?As others have said, the Lips have been around for quite a long time. Their career has probably seen more years than you have. They also were never handed a contract. They've gotten to where they are by years of hard work and creativity. They are the epitome of what it is to be a true Indie band...they started their career themselves from their van, and spent years doing so before they started getting noticed. They put on one of the more entertaining shows of any band I've ever seen, with more heart than most. They are true music artists, as they don't do it for a paycheck. They do it because they love music.

Kay Luge Very presumptive of you to say that "most people have no idea who the hell this is". I agree with Jon, probably got together around the year you were born. Guess you are not very open to new things. Oh well, maybe you can buy one of their t-shirts the next time your in Hot Topic...

The Flaming What? It might be surprising to know that most people have no idea who the hell this is and if you can't be bothered to say something so simple as who these people are then I can't be bothered to Google it much less watch it.As it is I can only assume the film makers will barrage us with more unknown references with little if any explanation.
