I do think it's relevant that he's overweight slovenly unshaven and be-capped. I recall the words of one of my law professors commenting at our tendancy to wear sandals at Vermont Law School:

"Don't these people know that they're going to have to wear actual shoes and put on a tie someday if they want to be taken seriously?"

I'm not big on the "challenge the status quo" and "look at them for their ideas, not appearance" excuses either. It's all one big picture for me. Moore dresses like he directs: a quick tossing together of a hodgepodge of random and only seemingly-related things -- just enough effort to let us know he may be witty, but not enough to convey any clear picture or theme.

You may say I'm superficial. I'll just say he's a lazy slob -- which is by far a worse thing to be.

That's because the movie will be directly released on DVD, and will skip the movie theaters.

Unfortunately, that project has gone nowhere and gotten zero attention.

Contrary to its title, Michael Moore Hates America isn’t a hatchet job on the filmmaker. It’s a journey across the nation where we meet celebrities, scholars and average folks alike, and we find out whether the American Dream is still alive! In the process, we’ll look at Michael Moore’s claims about the country, its people, and our way of life.
The description sounds good, and he may actually have a good idea, but I think the title makes it... too.. hateful?

He says he wants to interview Moore, but the truth is, he wants to complain about Moore's rejection of the offer of being interviewed more.

Well, isn't that a trick taken from Moore's own handbook? Remember Roger?

True, but when Moore does those things it's... you know... different. Don't you ever read this forum?

Seems slightly less lame than it's title would belie lol.
I'm interested in seeing it, but I haven't seen Moore's last one either for that matter. The former doesn't have much distribution, and it looks like it just left town. Doh.
