Now this is absurd...Ban Fahrenheit 9/11??

[cinder]

how do you know its a distortion? have you seen it?

On the flip side, how do you know it's NOT distortion, have you seen it?

I don't think this will do anything to anybody or any party.

I completely agree. This will just just push the anti-Bush people more toward their justification and the same can be said for those that support Bush.

I haven't seen the movie, but I've read about it and seen it reviewed on TV.

Unfairenheit 9/11
The lies of Michael Moore.
By Christopher Hitchens (No right wing wacko)

"
To describe this film as dishonest and demagogic would almost be to promote those terms to the level of respectability. To describe this film as a piece of crap would be to run the risk of a discourse that would never again rise above the excremental. To describe it as an exercise in facile crowd-pleasing would be too obvious. Fahrenheit 9/11 is a sinister exercise in moral frivolity, crudely disguised as an exercise in seriousness. It is also a spectacle of abject political cowardice masking itself as a demonstration of "dissenting" bravery."

Odd that the movie would come out before the election, I don't see this movie playing in theaters long, and it usually takes little to no time at all to get the DVD's out.......

no honestly I havent seen it,but I also didnt come out saying its based on nothing but truth.Im willing to see the film and make a judgement on it at that point,I just think its too early to declare the film "distorted" or even "truthful".

Correct... I think that is why it was released in theaters now. It generally takes 2-3 mo's to distribute DVD's.

However, you state that it will hurt the Bush administration. These are nothing but opinions that people hold, they hold no truth whatsoever, so don't take it as such.

Discussion of the film has been going great, let's keep it going!

Gotcha. Interesting. Pretty shady/sneaky to try to "rock" a campaign by releasing a movie like this.


Remember when VHS rentals would take like years to come out?!?

No thats the Cannes film festival. Sundance is the one in Utah.

Sorry. I got confused. It's too early in the morning.
