Never saw BFC. I kept hearing "Genius" and stuff. I thought Roger and Me was funny...saw another recently.
WHile I'm sure he metions all the crimes committed by scumbags with guns...does he mention anything about the law abiding citizens that defned themselves? We had a guy here that owned a ittle convienient store and he was being held up, well he pulled a gun from behind the counter and shot the scuzball...but people felt like he was in the wrong...
Just curious

there you go. left is always fucked. whatever you do. it's like being vegetarian. meateaters will always find some little detail to hold against you so that they feel good. so that they can say: see you're NOT a vegetarian.

I don't understand how the opinions on Moore's work are relevant.
Wether you like him, hate him, think he's right on, think he bends the truth... you know what's up, we're not idiots here. its not good

loudubus - there is no going back to those days. The left has been a story of complete failure over the last 30years. We need something totally new to counteract the corruptive powers of capitalism. I have no idea how that can come about. But old style socialism was a failure because it couldn't work within a capitalist world.

It's not the fact that he's a hypocrite that bothers me. I mean obviously we all are, and we are all fallible.
But...
My biggest issue with Moore, politicians, the media, etc ect ...is thier hidden agenda. What I mean is Michael Moore's hidden agenda is that he makes money on his movies and his views. certain views of his sell more than others, so it seems to me that he crafts an idea, an ideaology, a persona, that does not recieve the social critique that it deserves.
Though moore can be right on many things, he is often wrong, and grossly exaggerates and manipulates to prove his points, rather than relying on the facts at hand.
If Moore is a true commentator, than he deserves my critique. If he sells a certain amount of beliefs and values, than he should abide by them. if not than all he is doing is creating a very entertaining and thought provoking movie...rather than a didatic documentary.
Thanks for your comment.

"who the fuck would pay money to go see a piece of political propaganda?"
Citizen Kane is a piece of political propaganda. As Fritz Lang's Metropolis. Leni Riefenstahl's Triumph of the Will/Olympia. All masterpiece's.

Yes lowimpakt, plus that book i saw had a whole paragraph on how in the middle ages muslims in Persia persecuted the jews a few times. I was like, what the hell has that go to do with todya? I think he was trying to dispel the notion that muslims are tolerant of othe religions. I wish i could remember it... it was written by guy with a thick black moustache, anyone know? How many ultra-rights can there be with thick black moustaches?

A boy hears stories of brave hunters and the tigers they kill at the end of every story and one day asks his grandfather.
"how come the tiger never gets away or eats the hunter?"
"when the tiger learns to write...you'll read those stories too."

also, i'm not saying unsubstatiated right media is a great thing - i dislike that too. but unsubstantiated left media is what's hip right now, what's big right now, and what's making bucks right now.

Citizen Kane, Metropolis, Triumph of the Will. Did you see those films? They are not propaganda.
Its sad that you equate them with some angry partisan BS.

i dont think anyone wants to touch moore with a 10 foot pole. that guy is a lunatic that trumps up lies upon lies. i think that the majority of america will soon tire from his antics and he will fade off into the distance with all the rest of the super liberl former hollywood stars.
im personally glad that disney is doing this. not because i think its a smart business move, but just because i abhor moore.
