Talking Michael Moore - February 3rd 2011, 08:48 AM

who here loves Michaels Moore documentaries?
ME! ME!

Anyone else? If so, what're you're faves?

I really like "Sicko", it had something in it that really just...wow.


Not just another lost child;
a hopeless one too.

Nevermind, she ain't even there anymore.

I love how he just wants to expose everything.
Personally I think he's a freakin genius.


"Once a little boy sent me a charming card with a little drawing on it. I loved it.
I sent him a card and I drew a picture of a Wild Thing on it. I wrote,
“Dear Jim: I loved your card.”
Then I got a letter back from his mother and she said, “Jim loved your card so much he ate it.”
That to me was one of the highest compliments I’ve ever received. He didn’t care that it was an original Maurice Sendak drawing or anything.
He saw it, he loved it, he ate it."

I really dislike him. He mixes fact with fiction which can be dangerous. If you watch closely, he moves from 2004 to 2001, mixing up his timeline up.
My teacher showed his movie, Capitalism : A love story and is now in trouble. His movies are awful.

He's entertaining but he does distort things a bit. I enjoy his movies, and some things he points out are interesting, but I wouldn't take it all as fact.

Hate the fat shit, he bends shit to how he wants to display it and won't give any other view points.

I understand what he's trying to do, and think he has the right idea. But he litteraly discredits anything that Isn't in his agenda for "good and right"

Also, bowling for columbine had tons of errors in it.

He's a fat piece of **** who mixes fact, fiction, and his own biased opinions in his documentaries.

Just watch Bowling for Columbine. I remember tearing my hair out at some points during that garbage.

I haven't seen many, but I did love his reverse-protest of the Westboro Baptist Church.


"What do we live for, if not to make life less difficult for each other?"
-George Eliot

"Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it."
-Groucho Marx

Like others have said, he twists things around too much to fit into his movies.

I like his stuff and usually agree with his overall views, although I take his documentaries, like most others, with a grain of salt; documentary makers almost always let their views seep into the film at least a little.
