Sicko-Discuss It

Michael Moore is back with steamy vengence against the health care system.

What are your thoughts?

I think the same thing about Michael Moore every other sane person in America does.

Yeah, Roger and Me was awesome.

Farenheit 9/11...not so much.

And that's saying something considering I agree with his politics. I just find the way he composes himself borderline repulsive.

I really have very little interest in "Sicko" but I'll probably see it. Call me a glutton for punishment.

I really can't be bothered with him any more. He become such a smug self-important jackass since he got a few trophies for his mantle.

Also, I not seen that other documentary about Michael Moore but I here he's also a hypocrite.

I hope that some day people will look back on his movies as nothing more than a bit of pop-culture that many people once believed in and now feel foolish for doing so... sort of like email forwards or the thigh-master.

If you edited Moore's movies down to four minutes long you might end up with something worthy of being a special filler on the Tonight Show like Jay-Walking.

If America weren't full of people willing to believe anything that makes them feel justified in thinking that they're helpless victims of their own society, Moore wouldn't have an audience.

OMG u gusy what micheal more puts in his movies is all true he made a congressman sign his sun up for the army once and the guy wouldnt do it because he was a hippokrit and moore was right. it was so funny! another time moore stood outside a building and chasted a guy with a camera and the guy woulndt talk to more because he was a hippokrit and more was right. LOL

Just back from Sicko.

It's one of the best movies of the year.

Roger & Me era Michael Moore is back.

Cool. I've been wondering if this was going to be one of his annoying ones or good ones. Been debating on taking a look or not.

No, pretty sure it's my favorite movie of the year.

And Cap, you KNOW I'm not some Moore fanboy.

I do, I was just messin'

From what I see on RT a lot of people that dislike Moore say it's good... Not that it convinced me to go see it... Maybe a download, or maybe and I do mean maybe rent it.
