A MUST READ for fans of "Bowling for Columbine".
 

http://www.hardylaw.net/Truth_About_Bowling.html


Read that webpage, then go watch the movie again.

Ive posted that in so many Michael Moore fans faces on this board.

I bet they dont believe that

hahah

I read that a couple months ago. It's pretty funny. I haven't seen the movie yet, but if this document is spot on, I'll die laughing.

In this industry, you should understand the power of good editing. :winkwink:

I read the whole thing just now. Not a die hard fan of Michael Moore or BFC but this page is pretty much just a lot of whining. You could do this kind of stuff about anything; the news tonight, did we land on the moon?, Is paul dead? bla bla bla. If you nitpick anything you will find some flaws that work to your advantage and so I bet the other documentaries nominated could also be torn apart from one point of view or another. This page's facts didn't really change my experience of BFC.

hahaha

there is a difference between debating landing on the moon and some guy rearranging and distorting facts to make things go his way

Moore has you kids so wrapped its funny.

I dont know if Michael Moores film is real or not but reading something off a website wouldnt be proof to me just because its written doesnt mean its correct. Also if he was making all these falsehoods why arent the people and companies he portrayed wrongly suing him? They sue now over posting on forums ,they wouldnt sue over a major motion picture ? Think people lol.

Yeah there is a difference, but as far as I know the whole "did we land on the moon thing" is about studying film footage and finding holes that proves that a particular part was manufactured and not documented........

Moore has me (a kid) wrapped up.... hardly, I believe the guy is out to get rich and disapprove of his methods most of the time, and I will say again, I am not a fan of the movie or him.

Who am I to argue with people who get their intelligence from FAKE DOCUMENTARIES?

:1orglaugh

good stuff. Also, the title of the movie is about how the kids went to their bowling class before they did the murders, and thats not true either.

Who am I to argue with ppl who choose to take one kind of ppl's fact at face value and other's not :1orglaugh

edit:
a lot would suggest that Moore has crossed the line, but when reading this page, he has a lot of "evidence" that can't be checked up on as well. I'm sure Moore as always has gone for the bucks though he's made millions offa this.

Who said I did that.

But you are the one who brings up landing on the moon as a basis of argument for some guy who watched too much MTV as a kid and is trying to rebel in his own rich white kid way.

But hey his films are worth challenging the Moon Landing hahah

His film Roger and me was probably rebelling, then it got financial, I believe the guy is about the money as everyone else.

I live in Hollywood man, I see jokes like Moore put out shit films all year long.

This guy is a PRODUCT of Hollywood, nothing more.

100 more just like him just got off a bus with their script in hand headed for the major studios

hahah

jokes.

First off Michael is a older man his first film came out in 1989, So he is not some kid watching MTV, point 2 it $250,000 to make it and it took three years because he had to keep getting money up to finish. He didnt come from a rich family. Also living in hollywood doesnt make you an authority on the movie business any more than living on wall street would make someone a financial wiz lol. This was a guy who followed his dream and became sucessful, he isnt one of the beautiful people and he made it on his terms. Good for him.

Hey, everyone has to have someone to look up.

Glad you found your idol.

:1orglaugh

Hey he sold a film he made for $250,000 for 3 million. What was the last thing you sold for 3 million lol.

Ah, so maybe he was in it for the money after all?

I have no problem with that at all. But let's call a spade, a spade.

If this thread was about comparing bank account sizes, sure Moore would beat me.

But its not.

So change the subject and jerk his balls some more.

At least I moved out of moms house, you still there huh?

hahaha

whereas you have achieved so much with your life?

:1orglaugh

Exactly.

The guy made a movie he thought would sell.

It did.

:thumbsup

How easy do my opinions bring out the trolls.

Fact: I get all the fish swimming.

hahaha

:1orglaugh

don't worry about fletch

25,000 posts on a BBS

if you can't be a bigshot in real life, be one on the internet

:1orglaugh

Yes, I am nothing.

I dont make any money and I dont run any sites.

I have no clients.

Nothing to see here, just anothing nobody.

:)

if your opinions bring out trolls, doesn't that mean you're trolling?

for a change, you're being a hypocrite :1orglaugh

and kudos - you must feel proud with all those posts under your belt

but still one of the very few people to not post their face here

have trouble accepting real world criticism?

Michael Moore has been thoroughly discredited.

My opinions even brought out you.

The troll too shy to post under HIS real name.

Say it isnt so!

:winkwink:

Ok I get it..

So Moore is like what the american government is doing with reality right now..

Moore is just a lame copycat then..

How many different posters have you now accused of being the opposite sex? It's getting quite funny.

So what's your real name, my ******?

Same post count as Amp, and people know his real name, his face, his hobbies, his friends...

Post your info, or forever be known as a coward.

Posting pictures of knives doesn't make you look dangerous in anyone's eyes you know?

a failed rock star wannabe begging for my attention.

hahah

If you say so, it must be true.

:1orglaugh

This is the fucking BEST POST EVER!!!

People I do business with know my real name ;)

:1orglaugh

nra crap

I know Fletch's real name. :winkwink:

If I do business with someone, I am more than willing to jump on the phone, give you my addy and real name.

Have done so with many people, have closed many deals with folks on this board and done so over the phone.

Sara cant say the same.

Trolls have no business. ;)

I hate that fat fuck...he's so full of lies and deceit its disgusting...he's 0wn3d by the dollar like the rest of 'em.

Most of the fans of the conservative media pundits have the good sense to keep it to themselves. Why there is suddenly a surge in their liberal equivalents and why they are not completely embarassed to take seriously a man who's principle academic work is titled "Stupid White Men" is beyond me.

Entertaining thread..... didn't see that coming :)

At least I moved out of moms house, you still there huh?

hahaha


I dont live in my mothers house and I have a wife to boot. Attacking me doesnt make you right lol.

as fake documentaires go, it ain't spinal tap ;-)

just because someone puts up a webpage doesn't mean anything, true or false, about their claims. basically it means that they or someone they know can type and ftp.

anyone who makes a documentary is hoping to make money with it. that doesn't invalidate - or validate - their message. fuck, national geographic makes MILLIONS from documentaries. but they're still very informative.

i love "standing in the shadows of motown", and all my friends from flint (and i knew a bunch of folks from there) says "roger and me" is pretty much the way it was.
