Moore to Shoot 'Fahrenheit' Sequel Friday, November 12, 2004

LOS ANGELES — Michael Moore (search) plans a follow-up to "Fahrenheit 9/11," his hit documentary that assails President Bush over the handling of the Sept. 11 attacks and the war on terrorism, according to a Hollywood trade paper.

Moore told Daily Variety that he and Harvey Weinstein (search), the Miramax boss who produced the film, hope to have "Fahrenheit 9/11 1/2" (search) ready in two to three years.

"Fifty-one percent of the American people lacked information [in this election] and we want to educate and enlighten them," Moore was quoted in Thursday's edition of Variety. "They weren't told the truth. We're communicators and it's up to us to start doing it now."

A spokesman for Fellowship Adventure Group (search), formed by Weinstein and brother Bob to help distribute "Fahrenheit 9/11," did not immediately return a call seeking comment.

"Fahrenheit 9/11," which won top honors at last May's Cannes Film Festival, became the first documentary to top $100 million at the domestic box office. Moore, who won the documentary Academy Award for "Bowling for Columbine," is pushing "Fahrenheit 9/11" in the best-picture category for the upcoming Oscars.

The issues for the follow-up film will remain the same, Iraq and terrorism, Moore said.

"The official mourning period is over today and there is a silver lining: George W. Bush is prohibited by law from running again," Moore said.

Bilking the left for another $120M. For someone who claims capitalism is the root of all evil, he sure works the system to his benefit better than anyone.

Maybe his next movie will be a public service film. He'll shoot himself.

Michale Moore, a man who can't understand the simple and undeniable truth about caloric intake and burn, or figure out how to properly and routinely use a razor is going to be the arbitor of knowlege to sane and rational Americans?

So, does this mean he's going to correct the lies in his previous piece of trash?

You think he can get Harvey to spring for a steady cam attachment? The few bits in F9/11 that Moore actually shot himself gave me motion sickness.

They could also use a new director. F9/11 looked like a high-school video project. Final grade = "C".

(Critique of rampant lies and distortions omitted. It's been done better by others.)

Every dollar he makes is another vote for W and the conservatives.

Why not just call it "Whoring for the DNC" and be done with it?
