Oh, but they can change the rules for such a brilliant film director like Michael Moore. (sarcasm)

Not DOCumentary, but CROCKumentary. New genre . . .

Variety speculated that backers of the film might regard the movie, which has been popular among Hollywood's liberal-leaning elite, as having a better chance of clinching a nomination in the best picture race if it was disqualified from the documentary contest.

Picture of the year....sad...very sad. This is the best they can do.

If Fahrenheit 9/11 is chosen as Picture of the Year, especially if The Passion of the Christ is passed over, then there are millions of Americans who will never bother to watch another Academy Award show.

Of course there are many other Americans, like myself, who already stopped watching years ago.

I would LOVE to see the Academy nominate this piece of crap for Best Picture. The gross display of their profound bias would wake even more people up to just how anti-American Hollywood really is.

Just think:

Best Documentary
Best Picture
Best Director
Best Best Best Best

It won at Cannes, didn't it? Best Foreign Film

This faslamentory film will pull down 3-4 major awards. Business as usual in Commywood.

Whatever Moron's faults may be, this movie made a pile of money and a disparate crowd of millions has seen it.

As conservatives we can't dismiss that lest we be pure hypocrits...


BUMP

I'm surprised how many folks(including my liberal father) strongly hold on the the idea that it is a documentary. It's pretty obvious that since it put forth one man's conspiracies theories, it can't be one.
