Damnit, I hate how this guy releases a movie and controls the fucking debate. We need to find someone talented to put out movies from our perspective... guess that's easier said than done.

Michael Moore unveils title of new doc
'Capitalism: A Love Story' to be released Oct. 2
The film is described as focusing on "the disastrous impact that corporate dominance and out-of-control profit motives have on the lives of Americans and citizens of the world."


"the disastrous impact that corporate dominance and out-of-control profit motives"?
The same capitalist system you are selling your movie in?
Profit Motives? Your looking to make millions off these peoples misery
The guy is a hypocrite, he has entire restaurants cleared out when he goes out to eat, there's video on youtube of it.

"It's got it all -- lust, passion, romance and 14,000 jobs being eliminated every day. It's a forbidden love, one that dare not speak its name. Heck, let's just say it: It's capitalism."[/url]

That makes me furious. How could anyone be so fucking ignorant?

Fahrenheit 9/11 BIGGEST white wash piece of shit ever.

Government is incompetent? YEAAAAAAH, who didn't know that? retard.

Good. Even among all the Democrats I know, I don't know anyone who actually takes Michael Moore films seriously. He's a joke, and is too busy making smarmy narrative over his films to realize it.

So did I. Michael Moore is going to brainwash a generation of people to hate capitalism and become socialists, just like he brainwashed millions of people to support socialized medicine.

The problem is your average voter who likes to watch "documentaries" like these to seem informed. They end up swallowing everything the lard ass says as truth and vote for that bullshit.

Michael Moore is such a stupid-ass tool. With everything he does, he starts out with his own conclusion and tries to find evidence that supports that conclusion. Then the evidence he finds proves without a doubt that his conclusion is wrong, but then somehow misses all of his evidence completely and continues with his original conclusion.

For example:
In Sicko, he goes into detail with examples of how bad government HMO-based health care is. Later he goes into how 9/11 rescue workers were denied government health care. Then he comes to the conclusion that we need socialized health care. Huh? Government health care sucks, so to improve it we need 100% government health care... what kind of screwed up logic is that?

In Bowling For Columbine, he demonstrates that the number of gun owners isn't the problem because in other countries such as Canada they have about the same numbers of gun owners, but not nearly as much gun crime as in the US. Then at the end of the film, he stages a protest against K-Mart selling guns. His obvious conclusion is that there are too many guns, and they're too easy to get... even though he previously proved that the number of guns and gun owners isn't the problem. Just a dumb-ass tool.

So now, he's going to do the same dumb-ass thing with this movie. He's going to push his agenda of anti-capitalism by pointing out the evils of corporatism.

"the disastrous impact that corporate dominance and out-of-control profit motives have on the lives of Americans and citizens of the world."

Corporate dominated means corporatism, not capitalism! I think it's obvious that he's going to push socialism... but what would we have then, corporate dominated socialism? That's still corporatism, but with less choices and less competition.

More outrageous propaganda that needs to be countered big time.
He will have people convinced that George W Bush and his so-called free market capitalism are the problem!!

Yeah, I guess we need to look at what happened in the USSR and realize that we do need the gov't to provide everything for us. :(

I dunno about you guys but I was in a good mood until I read this thread.

A Michael Moore film bashing capitalism has the potential to undo a lot of the work this movement has done, and make our job a hell of a lot harder. All the more bullshit propaganda indoctrination to sift through...

I think the only good things he ever did was confront politicians on whether they read the bills they voted for, and whether they would send their own kids to the wars they voted for. He’s pretty good at investigative reporting, but as was said earlier he is lousy at making conclusions and assessing the real problems (their causes).

Future Headline:
“New Michael Moore Movie Against Corporations and Capitalism Makes Him and Paramount Corporation Hundreds of Millions in Capital”

Considering Moore's roots with Roger & Me I hope he'll enjoy watching the Government and Unions taking over GM. Is he happy and excited to see the evil free market pushed out and GM Nationalized?

I want to hear his explanation for when it fails and why people are angry and fleeing GM to go to Ford or asian cars.

When I first watched Bowling for Columbine I didn't really have a strong stance for or against guns. When the movie was over it made me realize why we need guns in this country. Maybe that sounds strange, but I think that documentary was less biased than his others (and it was still biased). I'm sure this one will be a giant pile of crap.

He very much does enjoy it, and triumphs it as a failure of Capitalism.

He'll probably just blame George Bush, capitalism or something else totally irrelevant, for screwing it up in the first place :rolleyes:

They end up swallowing everything the lard ass says as truth and vote for that bullshit.Didn't seem to do much good when he put out Fahrenheit 9/11 against Bush during the 2004 election. Seems to me that more than enough people point out that Michael Moore's documentary style is about as authentic as the filming of The Office. It's designed to look like a documentary, but everyone knows it's not really.

Michael Moore is a hypocrite and a tool of the highest calibur. He trashed the abuses of power by the Bush administration, yet glorifies the Obama administration and that they have the authority to do whatever they want. He is what he actually said:

"Not much [can be done], fellows. He (Obama) has the massive will of the American people behind him -- and he has been granted permission by us to do what he sees fit."

He is against totalitarianism only when the person in charge has an "R" next to his name. People like Moore are disingenuous and offer false solutions and mislead the public, he fails to see how Obama's and Bush's power abuses are one in the same.

Michael Moore is a case study in "the road to hell is paved with good intentions". Intentions are good, everything else is completely bankrupt.

To quote from the old White Wolf Giovanni Vampire Clanbook 'The only reason I miss food is because I cannot squat down and shit on his face'. Michael Moore is living proof that some girls should give blowjobs instead of engaging in coitus.

Michael Moore makes propaganda films, not documentaries
Also he is dishonest and changes the timeline of events and also doesn't include half of the information
Ex: In the movie Roger and Me, he actually met Roger, but left out that important detail of his movie

I rarely agree with Michael Moore, but to be honest, he makes "documentaries" that are relatively interesting and make you think. At the very least, we should know how others think.

Though I suspect I'll have to watch this one alone- I dragged my wife to "Farenheit" and "Sicko", but I think she's had enough :)

I'll probably wait until it hits the "low budget" theaters, though.

I hate agreeing with you, but you're right. Michael Moore DOES make great documentaries. They aren't complete, they don't always have the solution, but they are a hundred steps ahead of anything coming out of the mainstream media.

Farenheight 9/11 was not a white wash, it was incomplete. There was a lot of really good, really important material that is definitely intertwined with what actually happened that day, including Bin Laden family flying around the country during the grounding as well as our country's relationship with Saudi Arabia. I recommend this film to everyone.

I've never seen Sicko, but Bowling for Columbine is one of my favorite movies ever. It shows how the media controls the population and uses incidents like Columbine for their own agenda. It shows how the media exploits race and makes people more fearful than reality would portray their actual dangers. I have no problem with private citizens demanding that Kmart take ammunition off of their shelves. If I ran Kmart, I wouldn't sell fucking ammunition, I would sell ammunition of I owned a gun store. That doesn't mean i want the government to stop Kmart, but having Michael Moore stop them with words rather than force was A FREE MARKET solution to this issue. Again, I don't support his messages 100%, but he makes some great points and does some very informative interviews.


I have a feeling this film will probably make me ill, but we'll see.
