Maybe it's because he's been proven to have greatly slanted his mockumentary "Bowling for Columbine" yet he won an oscar anyway. Doesn't make one really want to see any of his filth...er films. Documentaries are supposed to DOCUMENT, not try shove the directors political agenda down your throat, which he's trying to do with his new movie.




Moore has said time and time again that his stuff are not supposed to be "documentaries". Whether people see them as such and he can even win an award for Documentary is not necessarily his fault, though I'm sure he doesn't particularly mind.




Then why did he accept the Oscar? If he's not making documentaries, he should have said "I cannot accept this since my movie is not a documentary". But he didn't. He bloody well knew his film was up for an oscar for best documentary, he should have pulled the plug right away, but he didn't. That just makes him more of a hypocrit.

I've met him and spoken with him and he's not nearly as liberal as his work makes him out to be. He, in the great capitalist tradition, realized what made money so he started making it. Too many people take his stuff as gospel when it really was never meant to be.



"Hey, it's not my fault I'm a liar". Baloney.
