If Michael Moore's Movies Are Propaganda So are....
 

All the other Hollywood movies with bullshit historical refernces.

TITANIC, so much TRUTH in that.

BAND OF BROTHERs - oh god can Hollywood make another movie about war and glorify it?

PEARL HARBOR - i bet the guys who went through the real deal loved that flick.

PLATOON - oh this movie is so real it makes me cry.

Dont forget TOM CRUISE as - THE LAST SAMARAI, yeah WHITE SAMARAIs who are 5'4" scare me and there is so much truth in this movie.

all the movies you let your kids watch are so FULL OF DISTORTED facts yet when Michael moores comees up with something its PROPAGANDA and people want to censor it.

hahaha you idiots make me laugh

get real

HOLLYWOOD IS ALL PROPAGANDA.

and I dont even like Michael Moore, just pointing out facts

What about "saving private ryan"?

People who shrug off Moore's movies as pure propaganda really piss me off. Theres alot of good points in his books and movies.

People watch movies for fiction and a distorted sense of reality. The difference with Moore's films is that they don't agree with the current "regime" or the with the people who hold the powers views... its that simple.

Moore markets his movies as d0cumentaries (Oscar for best d0cumentary). The one's you listed are pure Hollywood entertainment and never claimed to be anything but.

point there

please he is a whiney liberal douche that is only out to promote his own agenda. his mindless whining is so partisan it makes me sick.

was waiting for this to come up.

talk shows like Springer, and oprah are scripted propaganda too, how do you view those?

I remember geraldo doing his big Satanic Ritual Baby Killer episodes in the 80s and 90s, THERE IS NOT A D O C U M E N T E D case of Satanic Ritual Baby Killing in America... yet his shows made it seem if every high school had satanist killers.

PROPAGANDA..

regardless of how things are marketed, its ALL PROPAGANDA.

TV IN GENERAL IS PROPAGANDA.

TV is a medum that has been for the most part engineered to appeal to the lowest common denomenator in society.

With that said I agree completely with your statment.

prop·a·gan·da ( P ) Pronunciation Key (prp-gnd)

1. The systematic propagation of a doctrine or cause or of information reflecting the views and interests of those advocating such a doctrine or cause.
2. Material disseminated by the advocates or opponents of a doctrine or cause: wartime propaganda.
3. Propaganda Roman Catholic Church. A division of the Roman Curia that has authority in the matter of preaching the gospel, of establishing the Church in non-Christian countries, and of administering Church missions in territories where there is no properly organized hierarchy.



------------------------------------------------

basically anything that contains anyone's opinion can be construed as propaganda.

indeed.

His tv show and hahahahahahahahaaries are great stuff. Sometimes he lacks tact, but he usually makes some good points. If this country had about 100 more Michael Moores out fighting the man, we'd probably all be a little better off.

His targets include big companies dumping dangerous waste, profitable companies that downsize employees while increasing the millions they pay out to their overpriced executives, corrupt politicians, corrupt companies, etc.

Exactly. I have no problem with labeling all of them propaganda. Where MM screwed up was in labeling his a hahahahahahahahaary.

See you in a couple of days! :)

the best one!!!

HAHAHA

:1orglaugh

Well said.

What have the rest of you done for this country?

How do you stand up for the rights and freedom for others?

of course catholiscism is the ultimate propaganda/indocorination tool.

Fuck, I about agree with a whole thread. Damned bizarre.

Looking forward to it.

:glugglug

of course he has an agenda. but i agree with many of his points. michael moore has things to say worth listening to. things you won't hear much (if at all) elsewhere.

When I went to see Titanic, I was expecting a hollywood production based around some truths.

When I went to see Bowling for Columbine, I expected to see a facual d0cumentary.

What was presented in Bowling for Columbine, was not a d0cumentary. It was as fictional as Titanic was.

I pay a lot of taxes.

Anybody that spouts off their thoughts, has done as much for their country as Michael Moore.

Exactly WHAT has he done? What has changed because of Michael Moore? What policies, laws, etc are different because of him?

Moore is a fat fuck...who sucks dick.....haha:321GFY

I agree with you, I think what he's doing needs to be done in a big way.

I think Michael Moore marketed his film as a hahahahahahahahaary to get more attention to it which has most certainly worked.

I guess Blair Witch was a failure too because it wasnt shot on tripods and track cameras?

get real, the point of this film was to get attention and so it has.

If you are too ignorant to watch something and take what you can from it and do your own research you should NOT be allowed to read books or watch films considering.

AGAIN: I dont even really care about Moore, just enjoy watching him fuck with the world, and i LOVE HIS MARKETING.

compare bank accounts then talk shit.

what do I do for my country?

I encourage church burning and voting with bullets, like any REAL AMERICAN WOULD in times like these.

:thumbsup

So would it be OK if MM made a "d0cumentary" about pornographers that showed most of use were into CP and beasty? After all, there might be a few items he got right and he might bring into light one of the actual CP people out there....right? Just because he made up stories and told half truths about everyone else in the industry, that would be OK? It would certainly get attention, which apparently is a good thing... and it would earn him money - also apparently a good thing.


I remember the outcry on the boards when the Bella Donna interview was shown on Nightline about how they edited and lied in order to make the industry look worse that it was, bump up ratings and to market it as news was absurd. But MM doing it against others is hunky dory. :thumbsup

It's easy to market something if you're going to lie. How many people would have gone to see BFC if the facts of the movie had preceeded it? :winkwink:

I watch Fox news every night so I can be up to date on politics and world events. Its the NEWS, things we the people need to know!

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

(actually the entertainment value of the news in Los Angeles is almost overwhelming)

Michael Moore is the same to me as the spam penis enlargments emails. (no offense to the penis pill guys)

Just people without talent trying to get attention and going through the numbers trying to make money.



LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME

Why would he bother when we have the mainstream news to label us as bad people already.

bush and his boys have that one :1orglaugh

Please without linking some dumb site thrown on the net by anyone with html skills where Michael Moore lied.

Not saying he hasnt, but would love to see someone with your intelligence isolate an incident of him doing so and would be more than able to share it with us.

can you?

So you think it's a d0cumentary?

doc·u·men·ta·ry ( P ) Pronunciation Key (dky-mnt-r)
adj.
Consisting of, concerning, or based on hahahahahahahahas.
Presenting facts objectively without editorializing or inserting fictional matter, as in a book or film.

Unless everything in it was factual, which even he has admitted it is not, then right off the bat he lied calling it a d0cumentary :)

Also, in case you didnt know there are organizations out there that are fighting against us (pornographers) saying we are in fact child porn pushers, amazing you use that sill y argument.

here is one.

http://www.thecpac.com/

"There is no stepping stone for a pedophile from going from adult pornography to child pornography," said Debbie Mahoney, founder of "Safeguarding Our Children."


Reported an adult pornography site 09/04/00 - 09/10/00"

"....adult Webmasters staged a charity auction that raised more than $45,000 for the children?s advocacy group Soc-um.org.... But even as the Webmasters were being applauded for their philanthropy, several women dressed as young schoolgirls were roaming the convention floor, handing out brochures and posing for photos with plaid skirts hiked up and hands on one another?s breasts and buttocks. Other ads for 'teen content' could be found...."

And you people are worried about Michael moore?

[quote]

Researchers from both secular and religious organizations have repeatedly come up with similar results: pornography is addictive, it is harmful to both the consumer and to the people involved in production. Adult pornography almost universally features people who were victims of child sexual abuse. Adult pornography also is closely linked with child pornography. <b>Indeed most adult porn websites feature ads intimating that child porn is available on their sites. They advertise "teens" and "lolitas" and infinite other combinations suggesting children in pornographic settings.</b>

its everywhere.

sometimes if you want to fight, you gotta fight dirty.

insightful, you've won me over with this argument.

Who cares? Anyone that gets their history from tv / movies is a lazy, ignorant tool anyways.

Who said anyone's worried about MM and pornographers? :eek7 Do you understand what "if" means?

I merely pointed out that when others use the same creative reporting as MM did about OUR industry and call it "news" or a "d0cumentary", everyone rants and raves. And what IF MM did exactly what he did with BFC but did it re: the pornography industry?

But since BFC wasn't written about us, then it's apparently OK to fudge on the truth a little in order to sell a few movie tickets. :1orglaugh

Just pointing out the hypocricy. :winkwink:

This ugly hateful recluse with no life is gone until Monday - you'll have to wait to argue with me then :)

DUDE, WHERE'S YOUR WEBSITE: MICHAEL MOORE OUT-SOURCING DESIGN, SERVER TO CANADA!

Advocate Michael Moore may have released a book titled DUDE, WHERE'S MY COUNTRY?, and may have vaulted to stardom hahahahahahahahaing worker's rights and corporate malfeasance in Flint, Michigan, but that has not stopped Moore from outsourcing his website design and servers -- to companies based in Canada!

Cannes-bound Moore, the great protector of the U.S. working class, has outsourced the design of his Web site to a foreign company in Canada, records show.

PLANK -- based in Montréal, Québec -- is the development and design company behind MichaelMoore.com.

Meanwhile, Moore's site is hosted by a foreign owned company, Webcore Labs, of Calgary, Alberta Canada. [Webcore does maintain an office in Beverly Hills, CA.]

Moore did not respond to repeated requests for comment.

Moore is to get star billing at this year's Cannes Film Festival with the controversial FAHRENHEIT 9/11.

Typical you claim he lies and cant back it up?

And you will always try and TURN the argument around and then disappear, come back when you can participate in a discussion and back up your claims. Hypothetical rhetoric.

You prove my point everytime, Peaches.

No proof, simply hot bags of wind.

They won't even release his lastest movie, if you were Michael Moore would you host your site in the USA?

I surely would not.

Perhaps Last Samuri isn't real, but I loved that movie.
