Not me - Michael Moore is a national embarassment. He hasn't made a factual documentary, well, ever. He is an activist, not an objective filmmaker and he is a pompus ass. I will be seeing Michael Moore Hates America though =)

i know this, which is why i don't think a lot of people should see it. it could be very misleading. however, if you know your facts, i think its interesting. plus i think whenever government officials get hammered, its damn funny. by the way, he does clearly state that it is not an objective documentary, from what i understand.

I will see it, I dont know too much about him or his films, but he is just offering his views. I saw the Columbine movie and i thought it was good. It made very interesting points.

I just came up with a term that perhaps I'll coin: instead of 'documentaries', Michael Moore's films should be called 'flog'umentaries (kinda like a Celebrity Roast: Stories that are not based on fact, necessarily, but it sure represents a fun whipping party).

Don't get me wrong ... I think it's probably pretty entertaining (depending on your view of Bush). I expect a good laugh out of it. While I won't pay to see it in a theater, I probably will view it through my Netflix.com membership.

Kids will see it anyway. I expect that it's no real big deal. They currently see R-rated flicks if they want.

I'm enjoying the hell out of the fact that Ray Bradbury (the author of Fahrenheit 451) is REALLY steamed at Michael Moore over the title. I'll enjoy it ten times more if he sues the bugger.

Fahrenheit 451 was an awsome book and an excellent movie. I cant wait for the 2005 remake =)
