If he keeps going with the trend I think he started with "Sicko" then I think it should be pretty good and enlightening.

I like what he is trying to say most of the time, but I disagree with his tactics. At times he flat out lies to make a point.

No he doesnt! His movie are only factual and unbaised!


I will probably see the movie, it's just best to check some facts afterwards.

Why is there an apostrophe in the film title?
 
Posted by Badenov (Member # 12075) on :
 
Because it's Blayne?

I don't know, I'd check... That's an annoyingly common error. Almost as annoying as using quotes for emphasis.

I like some of Michael Moore's stuff, but I think in this case he's kind of jumping on the bandwagon. Yes, I know he's been doing this for a lot longer, all the way back to "Roger & Me", but really... Is a shot at upper corporate management really something lacking in the current media environment?

Is it lacking --? Well, no. But this is where he lives. This corrupt-government/evil-corporation corporatocracy stuff is just exactly in his wheelhouse. It's all the stuff he's been talking about for years. How could he sit out?

Usually he's one of the only people in the media talking about it. Now that things have gone bad and everyone's talking about it, he's supposed to stop?

I'm looking forward to this.

In other words, he's not jumping on the bandwagon. It's his bandwagon. He's been driving it for about two decades.

I'm more interested in seeing in what ways he can totally ruin a perfectly valid argument.

Usually it's half truths and misrepresented opposition. Let's see if he tries something new!

Sicko is pretty accurate and makes a good argument although he kinda exaggerates our canadian healthcare system.
