Which raging pile of fertilizer will be more fun to ignore?

by Smitty

Competition for the "Worst Use of Human Time" expressed in film is rather tough this year.

I can't figure out if some hagiographic portrait of an idiot bent on destroying his country is worse than a movie by some corpulent capitalist about the evils of what made him rich.

A sort of intellectual Scylla and Charybdis, that brace of clowns.

One suspects their fans in Venezuela, North Korea, Myanmar, Syria, etc. would be pleased, if the idiotic ideas presented would lead to enough spare electricity to run the film.

The Blog Prof has an excellent post on Moore's compost.

Update:
Carolyn's Closet has some quotations, which is more moronic Moore than I'd suffer, but she's tougher.

  1. I don't think it is co-incidence that Moore is from Detroit, the home of the "Radio Priest" and radical Lefty Fr. Chas. Coughlin.

  2. By the way, check out Jeffrey Wells' Hollywood Elsewhere. In addition to recent posts lauding both of the Stone and Moore masterworks, Wells (a typical Hollywood humor-impaired uberlefty) has announced-- without irony-- his second annual "Stalinist purge," I kid you not, he calls it that, to clean out the people he doesn't like on his site because they give him cr*p about his kneejerk uberlefty opinions.
