I don't get that from that statement...it doesn't say they only want entertainment movies. It just says it doesn't follow the standards they set for their movies. My question is, what are those standards? They release extremely violent movies such as "Kill Bill", but not this? Where's the standard?

I just said, they want ENTERTAINMENT in their movies, not POLITICS. Sheesh.
 
Heres American Government 101:
the same reason that clinton and gore had no cameras, no recordings, no transcripts, because of the seperation/balence of powers of the executive, judicial, and legislative branches of government. For the president or vp to testify underoath, cameras, recordings and transcripts to the legislative branch would be an example of the legislative branch enacting power over the executive branch; thereby, violating the balance of powers between the three branches of government.

Commonly known as Executive Privilege...the same thing Clinton's Cabinet member used during Lewinsky-Gate and which Condy could have hidden behind easily & which the dems were banking on...glad she ripped them a new one...bi-partisan my ass, more like a witch-hunt[/quote]


They could've used that Executive Privilege and testified one at a time, but they had to go in together, what's your logic behind that?[/quote]

Dang you're dense. I hope for your sake that you're only about 10 years old.[/quote]

Blinded by propaganda, what a fool. Idiots like you in this country are a scary, scary thing. Slowly but surely, little by little, your constitutional rights are being taken away without you realizing it because you're too stupid to realize it, and you continue to bend over and take it in the a$$ with a smile on your face. Stupid, stupid person, I pity you.[/quote]

Executives do this all the time at board meetings. There's a lot of information to remember, and you'll get a better chance of complete answers if you have more of your high level executives at the meeting. Same with this case. And both of you stop with the insults- this is a discussion not a flame war.

And I JUST said, where do you get they don't want politics in their movies? The statement doesn't say that!

It says, and I quote you "Does not follow the standards that Disney sets for it's movies." Where is politics (or lack of interest in) in that statement or the definition of what their standards are?

It is what they meant. Name one other political film from Disney (and "My Date With The President's Daughter" doesn't count).
 
Or maybe this is the truth?

07 May 2004


Less than 24 hours after accusing the Walt Disney Company of pulling the plug on his latest documentary in a blatant attempt at political censorship, the rabble-rousing film-maker Michael Moore has admitted he knew a year ago that Disney had no intention of distributing it.

Read entire thing... Moore's a jackass.
Ill make sure to DOWNLOAD his movie.

Edit: And just out of curiosity it says Bowling cost $3M to make. Ummm.... what in the world cost $3M in that movie?

I agree. What about propoganda like "support our troops." that isn't something you can debate about, it is garbage rhetoric right up there with "you're with us, or the terrorists." Ever since it has come out that a lot of american soldiers have been using what I would call terrorist like actions (abusing prisoners, etc) I haven't heard as much of the "support our troops" garbage as usual. What I don't understand is why people cannot have an intelligent discussion about politics on this board, 90% of what i see is juvenile nonsense.

Moore must be making some points about something because conservatives feel the need to attack him instead of just ignoring him.
