I don't like him. There are many good reasons to be against this war, yet he knows none of them.

So do you like hitler as well? ;)

Michael Moore didn't cause the holocaust. And I don't disagree with him, I just don't agree.

i neither like nor dislike him.

he's not boring, based on the clips i've seen, but i think he'd become irritating after a short while.

Bowling for Columbine was very insightfull and brougth a completly new angle to the gun control debate

That has to be the single dumbest comment I've read all night. BfC was about as insightful as The Brady Bunch. It brought nothing new to the table on gun control, and rehashed what had been done countless times before in more informative documentaries. Furthermore this jackass fixed his facts to purposely support what he was trying to say. BfC wasnt a documentary, and anyone who watched it thinking it was, proves the point that anything run on movie or tv will be taken as fact unless stated otherwise at the begining of the show.

no. he's a fearmongerer that utilizes disinformation to prey on the weak-minded. plus, he's revered by hollywood for his mockumentaries. if thatt isn't enough reason to dislike him, i don't know what is.

WTF are you talking about.

Are you equating free speech with Hitler?

I believe what he did is better described by "using other people's air time to for shameless self promotion and spitting in the faces of kind people that presented him with an award"

He's not open minded. Don't fall into that trap.

I like him, very brave to be him these times in America

Bowling for Columbine was very intersting but only reassured me in what I have been think for a long time - Americas(ns) security paranoia. [saw it yesterday]

Stupid White Men was thaught provoking and pretty funny - instead of flaming him (out of blind nationalism and sheep behavior) ppl (here) should rather try to just think a little about the the issues he is adressing

the problem is he spins things in his "documentaries" to make it seem like he is right. If you ever saw Roger and Me, you would see that.
