Oh, I took a look at it, and the "Farenheit" trademark exchange. I enjoyed the fights from a seat in the back of the auditorium! I just don't care to get caught up in fights over LOTR or Ray Bradbury. (Did I like LOTR? Yes. Were there serious faults in LOTR? I think so,particularly in the last half of "Return of the King". I think we all will survive, though!) (Yes, Michael Moore is using Bradbury's title to give the audience a certain context for his film; if Bradbury's upset, ask him why he titled 2 of his works "Something Wicked This Way Comes" and "I Sing the Body Electric".) I have also seen however, that given the opportunity, almost everyone is happy to lay down arms and quietly explain what shapes their ideas on a subject---and THAT is what interests me! What I seek to get out of this forum is not based on innocence of it (I have seen the long, long threads with insults over the smallest things), but rather, it is based on reading the incredible connections that I have seen from people all over the world (I am in Louisiana as I write this) bringing to film---a subject all of us are passionate about. I love this!
