Also the Cannes Film festival prize is a huge joke. It should be filed under, "I love this town and all the awards they give themselves".

How about people go and see it and decide for themselves instead of listening to what other people that haven't even seen it tell you to do?

I'll watch it when I can see it on cable for free. Of course I will view it with a jaundiced eye.

Sure, but again, you are relying on other people to a degree. In the end, there really is no better way to decide the merits of something then watching it with your own two eyes...IMO of course. The best bet probably would probably be to do both.

Hehe, true.

I did hear an interview on that Commie NPR (HEHEHE :D ) about this. Many liberals are taking issue because they believe Moore has sunk to the level of Bush :p

The precise accusation is that Moore takes a perspective and constructs "facts" to prove it, much like the NeoCons of today. He believes in effect that truth needs realities larger than facts to prove the point. Yes, equal and opposite to the crap this administration pulled with Iraq.

That said, I think I will see this, although probably not in the theatre to find out what the hubbub is all about and judge for myself.

Disney is is a spokesman for the far right AEB. Almost all of Disney's talk radio stations broadcast Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity. Their Family Channel broadcasts that lunatic Pat Robinson. And now they won't release something that's gauranteed to sell 100's of millions form the left. Just because they employee leftys, who have high levels of smartness in the arts, does'nt mean thier leadership and political direction is'nt ardently right wing. They obviously shut them up when they get out of line.
