Moore on “Fahrenheit 9/whatever”
This news story is hurting my brain
“To just say it’s a sequel is so wrong,” Moore told The Associated Press. “It would be easier and safer to make a sequel, if that’s all it was, but this isn’t about Bush. We all know this. Regardless of who the president is come November, we have a big mess, a big, big mess to be cleaned up, and I don’t know whether it can be cleaned up. The toxicity of the spill may be so great that there’s nothing we can do about it. If that’s the case, where are we now as America and as Americans?”
The 2009 film will “examine America as an empire, study its standing since the Sept. 11 attacks and present revelations to surprise audiences as much as the first film did.”
I am so confused. And indifferent. When the film is released or gets a distributor or something concrete, wake me up.

So Nick … why are you bored? Do you agree with him or disagree? About the empire thing, or not?
And why does everyone hate Mikey so? I’ve never met a documentary that wasn’t biased …

I just think the whole “the title is this/no the title of it is this” thing is boring, not the idea for the film. I like Moore, and I love his films, and when this film finally opens, I will be there to pick up my tickets.
But I guess Moore does publicity so well, his film does not even have a name or a buyer, but it is already making waves.
I just think it is too soon to care.
