[...] Moore’s latest documentary, Slacker Uprising, is only available for free in Northern America. People who attempt to download the torrent elsewhere get this annoying “Sorry” message. Since there are no geographical restrictions on the official torrent file, however, it was easy to share the film with the rest of the world. It would only take one person to upload the torrent to another site, and the rest of the world would have access to it. That’s exactly what happened. [...]

Wow. It’s rather funny to see people that have never read one of his books, or seen any of his movies or shows, go off like this.

Tell you what. go watch sicko, and the entire “awful truth” series, then tell me he doesn’t care.

He’s doing his part, he jump started the fucking 9/11 truth movement. He talked about the stolen elections before it was popular.

go complain somewhere else, where ever bill O’reilly tells you really.

does anyone else see why he falls short? Because he has a fucking reputation, and he’s not willing to stake that on unfounded conspiracy jumbo.

Loose Change final cut? how about the other cuts, full of lies and misinformation. did they retract or apologize for that in final cut? Nope, they just pretended it never happened.

Moore does good, and if you are too dumbed down by faux news to see that for yourself, I feel bad for you.

David Icke is fucking insane. So I should go listen to everything he says as fact, except the alien lizard shapeshifters? Seriously, google the guy, and tell me you’re going to believe anything that fat asshole has to say.

Take a shower Icke, you see lizards because you are a dirty fucking lunatic.

just watched it. i’m normally a fan but i’m not surprised this was given away free. It looked really cheap, was pretty dull in parts and the volume was disgustingly all over the place.

Kinda Sad really…

shows you there was a huge “change” movement in 2004, which I remember. And nothing got done.

BTW< I am a HUGE Michael Moore Fan. but this is his WORST film ever.

I rate it a D+

All it is 99 mins of him in the spotlight, making speeches, preaching to the choir. Its like watching endless speeches and people you don’t care about drone on.

Its disturbing how the media did a which hunt on him, and you can see that.

Torrent Fahrenheit 9/11 if you want to get pissed off again.

But its hilarious, the haters here never even saw one of his films, and only listen to corporate media, or Neo con right wing radio.

To my Europeans brothers and sister, please help spread this abroad. as in I, a Enlisted man in the US army, will NEVER see this, for they have banned his films.

Moore is good. He fights a good cause.
Unfortunately the movie was clearly aimed and high schhol and college kids with no attention span but a heavy lust for rebellion.
There are much better film makers out there that present more facts and go deeper behind the truths then moore does but they are not as funny (but neither is the subject).
Try loose chain final cut, zeitgeist or anything by David Icke (except that lizard crap)…then you will see the bigger picture that moore is failing to uncover.

“All they have to do is talk about considering possibly maybe selling off their American dollar reserves sometime and your economy will die.”

The U.S. could always sell off all Chinese American based assests, jack the profits and cut them off from ever buying there again. (And China’s economy would fall apart, because they’ve invested too heavily)

This isn’t something the crazy left likes to talk about though.

Although I agree that MM might not be the best of people, at least this is positive for torrents.

“Its amazing that another country like China doesnt just come over here and stomp us out.. we would fall over like a domino. Kill our economy (Which right now a fart would blow it down) and watch pathetic US grovel in its own muck.. without even 1 gun shot fired.”

All they have to do is talk about considering possibly maybe selling off their American dollar reserves sometime and your economy will die.

I’m going to check out this movie. I liked Sicko. Sure, it’s probably another “Let’s pretend Democrats are different than Republicans, let’s pretend they didn’t vote to occupy Iraq and let’s pretend they aren’t still voting to continue the occupation” thing, but oh well. He’s a good filmmaker.
