OMG! Our healthcare system is shit?! No way, nobody knew that before our saviour Moore told us.
9/11 was bad?! Not enough was done?! I don't believe it! Why did nobody tell us before?!

No seriously, what is ever "new" in his movies. Its just images meant to incite people's anger. Documentary my ass when you only deliver half of the story. He goes around taking interviews that lead nowhere. I remember he was taking an interview from this mother who's son died in Iraq and she started questioning the war. Why? Wtf was the point of that interview?

You know the saying, common sense is not so common, maybe thats why his movies "work".

Nick, I want to have your babies now.


THANK YOU. I hate this man. I love how everyone is riled up on Sicko but can't seem to realize that this "documentary" is being used to make a profit and to make a profit, you have to have something EXCITING and ACTION-PACKED *hint hint*. Those elements are not typical of a documentary that is unbiased. If you are pushing an idea, bring both sides to the floor and make a conclusion, not push your own private agenda so you can add a couple hundred million to your pocket and try to push it as a "political issue". BAH.


But back to the thread: If we can get it to happen, let's do it. No one can be as pushy as Moore and market an issue until there's no more left of the issue to market. Beware though; this could be a double-edged sword since I know TONS of people that will disagree with Moore no matter what. It could be great media exposure but could very well bring unwanted, hated-filled exposure.


Just my 2 cents.
