Muenkel 0 #1 November 11, 2004 Well, Michael Moore is at it again. Planning a sequel to F911. He feels he needs to educate the 51+% that voted for GWB. The ironic thing is that most of that 51+% will not bother to see his film. This man is completely nuts and I truly enjoy watching how the Hollywood elite assholes embrace this guy like he is the 2nd coming. http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2004-11-11-moore-fahrenheit-sequel_x.htm?csp=27&RM_Exclude=Juno __________________________________________________ Moore set to shoot 'Fahrenheit' sequel LOS ANGELES (AP) — Michael Moore plans a follow-up to Fahrenheit 9/11, his hit documentary that assails President Bush over the handling of the Sept. 11 attacks and the war on terrorism, according to a Hollywood trade paper. Moore told Daily Variety that he and Harvey Weinstein, the Miramax boss who produced the film, hope to have Fahrenheit 9/11 ready in two to three years. "Fifty-one percent of the American people lacked information (in this election) and we want to educate and enlighten them," Moore was quoted in Thursday's edition of Variety. "They weren't told the truth. We're communicators and it's up to us to start doing it now." A spokesman for Fellowship Adventure Group, formed by Weinstein and brother Bob to help distribute Fahrenheit 9/11, did not immediately return a call seeking comment. Fahrenheit 9/11, which won top honors at May's Cannes Film Festival, became the first documentary to top $100 million at the domestic box office. Moore, who won the documentary Academy Award for Bowling for Columbine, is pushing Fahrenheit 9/11 in the best-picture category for the upcoming Oscars. The issues for the follow-up film will remain the same, Iraq and terrorism, Moore said. "The official mourning period is over today and there is a silver lining: George W. Bush is prohibited by law from running again," Moore said. __________________________________________________ _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder, does Moore think that since GWB can't run again that the Dems are a shoe-in in 2008? - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

Muenkel 0 #3 November 11, 2004 I know Jimbo, the quotes are priceless! Hence the title of this thread. Jimbo, you and I are very ill-informed. We need the likes of MM to enlighten us. Praise the heavens for the likes of MM. Our saviour is at hand! _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why are people so quick to say that very successful people are nuts, stupid, or idiots just because they don't like them or agree with them? Just a pet peeve of mine. I don't see how it's "completely weird" either. He will spend a couple years putting together his next film, people will watch it and he will make money. SSDD.

billvon 3,131 #8 November 11, 2004 > The ironic thing is that most of that 51+% will not bother to see his film. What is even more ironic is that the sound and fury generated by the right wing talk show hosts et al will turn what will probably be a mediocre documentary into a box office hit.

Jimbo 0 #10 November 12, 2004 QuoteWhy do you care? Vote with your feet---don't pay to go see this movie. I really don't care too much to be honest. If I did, I would have elaborated on my first response. With regards to my question about MM and the 2008 election, it's curiousity, nothing more. - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

I can't say what Moore thinks, but I consider the fact that GWB can't run again to be a good thing because it means the Republicans will have an opportunity to nominate a good candidate for the job.
