  1. I'm in a bit of a dilema.

    In November, I intend to vote for President Bush. Nothing will change my mind about it, save a nuclear attack on some undeserving land.

    That being said, my dilema is that I want to see the movie because of the controversy it is causing.

    However, I don't want to put a single penny in Michael Moore's pocket.

    I feel that attack the president on this level is just plain bad taste. And further Moore, contrary to popular opinion, Michael Moore is not the saint he portrays himself to be.

    He asks congressmen if they will send their sons to fight in the war.

    Did Michael Moore serve in the Army during Vietnam?

    Where was Michael Moore during the draft?

    Second, Michael Moore is not the poor guy from Flint. He was born in Flint, and lived there for most of his life, but now he's living the good life in New York.

    Needless to say, unless they are a politician, anyone that has a chauffer and a stretch limo is not the common man.

    Michael Moore may be exercising his First Amendmant right.

    That's cool.

    But what does it say about him if he threatens to sue anybody that says anything bad about his film?

    SUE THEM FOR WHAT?

    If I say publicly that Michael Moore did the wrong thing in his film, then he'll sue me, and take my 6 Matrix Reloaded Posters, my broken down laptop, and my PS2.

    Way to go Michael. Really.

    On an unrelated note, I intend to enlist in the military. As some of you may or may not know, you take an enlistment oath, which follows:

    Kind of fucked up. Here I am attackinh the man, and I have to defend his right to bash the president.....

    That's pretty fucked up....

    So, you think no one should be allowed to bash the president? Because it's DISTASTEFUL!? That's rediculous. Who has he threatened to sue? You can't sue someone for criticising a movie.

    He didn't volunteer for war because he protested it. The reason he pressured the congressmen is because they were the ones who wanted the war, and so he felt it would only be just if they would send their own sons.

    And you intend to enlist in the military....so, you're openly ready to shoot civilians and blow up their houses?

  2. I saw the movie, and was moved to tears. Those images were haunting, and the reactions from the soldiers who didn't think they should be there was sad. Of course Moore is going to exaggerate, but he's not going to flat out lie. The fact is we're in Iraq on a false premise, and it is one indeed. And, Bush DID steal the election. No, we don't have hard proof, because anyone who could get the information would be a friend of the family. The Saudi's are a greater threat than Iraq, and if we were to go to war at all, we should have gone after them.

    Moore is a great storyteller, and gets you into it. Whether it's 100% or not, I loved this as a film. Funny, moving and well editted. And the images in Iraq should have been shown. Many of the members on EWB may well be fighting there if Bush gets re-elected. He wasn't even able to carry out his innaguration! Most of America hates him, the entire rest of the world hates him. And the fact Bush said he had war ON HIS MIND when dealing with situations. He's supposedly a devout Christian, yet he thinks nothing but death and corporate corruption. Fucking hypocrite.

    I'd assasinate him gladly if it Cheney weren't his Vice - He'd be much worse.

  3. If it contains a beheading and napalm attacks then he hasn't got a hope in hell.

    NC-17 at best.

    Although fictional, there have been plenty of PG-13 films with graphic images. LOTR even had a few beheadings, and that scene in X2 with Wolverine and the other chick stabbing eachother multiple times was also rather graphic.

    Napalm has been shown on plenty of news channels.
