Credibility
azstrummer — (archived)

These filmmakers have credibility on this subject for one major reason. They took the time to not only view the work of Moore but also go the extra step and try to get into the man's mind. I respect their opinions and may see their movie and it could cause me to lose some regard for Moore.

But let me reiterate something here. Anyone that has not seen at least one of Moore's films has no input on this discussion because all you're doing is regurgitating the opinions of someone else and to tell you the truth it's getting tiring.

I knew Moore's detractors were in left field when Bowling for Columbine came out and people were coming out of the woodwork calling for his head because he was promoting gun control. It was anti-gun propaganda they screamed and you immediately knew they hadn't even seen the movie because he never once attacked the ownership of guns, only the element of fear in our country that caused those guns to be misused.

So in a nutshell, I'd love to tell you I value your opinion on Mr. Moore but until you've actually seen his work, your input is simply hot air. Save your breath.
