Ok boys and girls, we are less than 24 hours from the opening of F911. For an opening question, who is going to see it tomorrow

[MikeLastort2]

I tried to buy tickets online for tomorrow, but all the theaters near where I live were sold out for all but the midnight show.

So I bought tickets for Saturday night at 9:20 at the AFI Silver Theater, in Silver Spring, MD.

Did you buy tickets online? I think it's a pretty good sign that all theaters nearby were sold out. This thing is going to make a ton of money.

[superdave]

My dad and I have tentative plans to watch it Sunday afternoon.

This thing is going to make a ton of money.

It depends on its staying power. It might be a 3 week phenomenon.

She lives around the corner from the theatre and went there on Tuesday to buy the tickets. I was a bit surprised we got tickets so quick, since Oak Park is a liberal community.

I don't get it. Did he like the movie or not? Maybe a score on a 5-star index would have helped.

He hated it, basically calling Moore the worst kind of moral coward.

good reading on Michael moore:

http://slate.msn.com/id/2102723/

and

http://slate.msn.com/id/2102725/

and....



Michael Moore was caught faking scenes in
'Bowling for Columbine' in which he went into
a bank
and got a gun for opening an account. It didn't quite happen that way and he staged the scene.
Ok so in his new movie Ferenheit 911 he has
a secret
inside FBI agent interviewed and it's later
found the
guy is not from the FBI.


Ok so there are tons of sites devoted to
debunking the
mounting number of lies Moore tells including:

www.moorelies.com
www.mooreexposed.com
www.moorewatch.com
www.bowlingfortruth.com



and that nuetral myth debunking sites like
snopes.com
and others find many errors in his work:

sure he was really caught with his pants down
in this
interview:

http://abcnews.go.com/sections/This...re0406

and this one:

but FINALLY you can buy Michael Moore
related media:

there is a new book coming out called
"Michael Moore
is a big fat stupid white man"

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/A...37651
71-4876919


and a movie called "Michael Moore hates
America"

www.michaelmoorehatesamerica.com

I'm not planning to see the movie, so what I post is completely irrelevant to this thread.

Salon had paired pro/con reviews that were very interesting.

Hitchens is a nut. He viciously attacks everyone who was right about Iraq because he was wrong.

[Scotty]

From Salon:

Michael Moore terrorizes the Bushies! (http://www.salon.com/ent/feature/2004/06/23/fahrenhype/index.html)

[christopher d]

He hated it, basically calling Moore the worst kind of moral coward.
Right, yes of course (I think your sarcasmotron needs a tune-up ;) ).

I was simply shocked by the forcefulness of the hate. I've read a whole lot of reviews, and this was by far the most scathing. When Rolling Stone reviewed "Johnny Hates Jazz"'s first album their question was "Why does Johnny hate jazz? Because it takes skill and talent? Because it requires thought?" and got worse. That was a love letter on a pink heart-shaped stickynote compared to this. He gets kudos from me simply for finding that many ways to say "I hate you".

[Ted Cikowski]

I hate Bush so much that I am willing to accept anything negative anyone says about him even if it's rooted in fallacy.


I wonder who is a bigger liar, Rush Limbaugh or Michael Moore? Actually I just wonder who is bigger. Propagandist of the world unite and takeover!

I don't wonder. Rush is a bigger liar. Moore actually believes in this thing called "research" to back up the facts that he presents.

Yes, that's right, facts.

Something a dittohead could never begin to understand.

[TheSlipperyOne]

80% Freshness Rating with 84 reviews counted and the negatives mostly seem to be less reviews and more people not agreeing with MM or not looking at what he presents.

Mike did you read any of the links in my post? Moore's works are littered with factual errors. Do you deny this?
