Yeah? And the crucifix swirling in a used toilet bowl was called art. What's your point, that critics have no taste and live somewhere other than reality?

I don't believe this thread belongs to speakers corner, it's just a congrats thread for an award given/received for a movie.
There was nothing about the ideology of the film mentionned in my post.
Strange how people react when they are not of the same advice as others.

And I could post a congratulations to Glock firearms manufacturer for having an outstanding and awardwinning product, without saying anything about ideology. Please.

Moore is an ass, his movies are fiction, not documentary, and yes, anything involving him is political, weapon related, and basically Speakers Corner material.

I beg to differ with the unqualified condemnation of Michael Moore. He has done some outstanding work in the past, but somewhere his train got derailed and he went off the deep end. Two pieces of his work which I HIGHLY recommend:

1. "Canadian Bacon" was a hilarious comedy that spoofed every American misconception and stereotype of Canadians.

2. "Blood in the Face" was a documentary about the white supremacist movement. It was outstanding because he let the people talk, and expose their ignorance through their own words. You never see him in the film; You only hear him occasionally asking questions. VERY different from the obnoxious approach he uses today.

I don't agree.. the author of this thread has voiced no opinions on the matter at all.. Seems the only opinions being voiced are by those who want it moved....

That would be a re-post. There have been any number of threads praising Glocks.

yea this belongs in the speakers forum

on the other hand michael thinks this security guard is a secret service agent.(check out his site)



From the looks of it, I think that is a uniformed secret service agent. They are the ones who provide security (manning the metal detectors, etc.) at the Capitol, White House, etc.

You are really making a point of ingoring the point of posts to nit-pick insignificant details. Fine.

I could post praise of Charlton Heston for winning his awards acting, in civil rights service in multiple areas, and wish him well while bravely fighting a debilitating disease, without making any mention of ideology.

Would that belong in The Bonfine, or Speakers Corner?

Also, by your "logic," this is a repost, because there are threads praising Moore (or were you not interested in the fact that Glock won a new award recently, as Moore did?). More to the point, there is already a thread in Speakers Corner concerning F 9/11. See Here.

If the thread continued by talking about his various movies and his courage, then it could remain in Bonfire. If someone called him a fat, lying piece of shit it would quickly be moved to Speaker's Corner.
