No you don't. I went into this movie with an openmind (as I am against handguns also) and thought this was the most unfair, biased movie, I had ever seen. The "trick" that Michael played on Charlton Heston just shows what an asshole he truly is (For the record I also don't care at all for Charlton Heston). The movie is brutal and shouldn't have even qualified as a documentary as basically it's a fancy one-sided op-ed piece. . [This message was edited Wed Aug 27 7:14:57 PDT 2003 by lovemachine] | |

I saw "roger and me." At that point, Moore established himself as an anti-capitalist whiner to me. Fear is the mind-killer. | |

even the haters must admit that a variety of thoughts and opinions make for a better society. Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh make me shudder with disgust, but i still think their opinions are important to the process of societal change for the better. | |

Jesus, what documentary isn't somewhat biased? It's made by a man...it would be impossible to be completely fair and balanced (is Fox News gonna come after me?). You guys act like Moore's the only director who has infused his personal views into his documentaries. The essence of what he's trying to say is there, intact. We are a violent society. There are reasons. he pointed out a few he thought were important. I mean, if all you got out of this movie is that he was "biased" and that he "tricked Charleton Heston" (and Heston said what he said about mixed ethnicity), then you're biased. Like someone said, I disagree with damn near everything Rush and Anne Coulter say, but I listen. There may be that one time where they say something insightful or meaningful that will have an impact on me. Well, maybe not Anne. But Rush, yes. Moore also speaks to the culture of fear in America that is pushed daily. Mostly by Fox News. I didn't need a movie to know these things, but it was nice to see it anyway.

I am rather peaceful, but Michael Moore is still a total idiot who distorts information to suit his own purposes... he is not a documentarian and he should never have gotten the oscar for best documentary.

The thing is... Michael Moore is fiction. He always claims this administration is ficticious and blah blah blah but half of his statements are fabricated or pure biased propaganda, even in Bowling for Columbine.
like i said... Michael Moore is a cunt. "I'm here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I'm all out of bubblegum"
