I don't know if he's ever won an Oscar, but he sure has done a shitload of fictional films.

there's a difference between Stone and Moore. Stone makes stories for entertainment. Moore passes lies off as truth.
- Galt - 08-29-2003
Stone passed of lies as truth in JFK
- The Jays - 08-29-2003
thats different. JFK wasn't a documentary. It was a film for entertainment. Stone wasn't lying, and he never claimed he was telling the truth.
Besides, I don't understand why we're arguing about this, unless you're trying to defend Moore in some backwards way.

Quote:I liked the part of Bowling for Columbine when Michael Moore just made shit up and edited things to his point of view.
i don't think its possibly to make any movie without having a point of view. its nearly impossible to be totally impartial.
- The Jays - 08-29-2003
Of course you can never truely be impartial, but that's not even the problem here. HE ACTUALLY MADE SHIT UP AND PASSED IT OFF AS FACT. There's a difference between favoring one point of view, and making up facts and editing the truth to make it seem like your point of view is right.

- The Jays - 08-29-2003
the question holds no relevence to this discussion.
- Keyser Soze - 08-29-2003
do i need to start a new topic?
- The Jays - 08-29-2003
nah, just say that Michael Moore is a liar who should not have been given the Oscar.
- Keyser Soze - 08-29-2003
he's a liar, which is why he should win the oscar. hollywood is full of em.
- The Jays - 08-29-2003
Astounding logic, buddy. Keep it up, you win all arguements with stuff like that.
- Keyser Soze - 08-29-2003
the oscars are bullshit anyway. look at the crappy movies they give awards to.
clearly moore editorialized when he was not supposed to, its far from a documentary except in the fact it consists of unscripted (mostly) footage.
furthermore, i dont think we were arguing, unless you think that the oscars are anything more than a marketing device created by hollywood, for hollywood.
- The Jays - 08-29-2003
so just fucking say you hate moore like the rest of them!
- Keyser Soze - 08-29-2003
oh i dont hate him, i think he's brilliant!
- The Jays - 08-29-2003
