Hopefully Mr. Moore will decide to provide LOTS of bonus footage (i.e., that had to be edited out of the theatrical release for time considerations) in the special features section.
Follow Ups:
I thought I knew it all, but not so. F911 adds more facts that I was unaware of. And masterfully done, even better than the highest priced Bush prop.The only problem I have with it is its unsuitability for some people due to bad language like the motherfucker song and the prisoner footage of the erection stuff.
Kids want to see this movie. Some parents would censor if they knew about the above two episodes. Too bad that the very people who could have been influenced by this will be turned away from it before they have a chance to see it and let it sink in.
on tonight and Michale Moore's assessment of the truth is ten times closer than any Republican can come up with. Looks very very bad - far worse than than Moore presented - and yes the fact will be revealed on the DVD I hope - Moore left out FAR FAR more incriminating evidence that the CIA and FBI members ADMIT to on tape.But of course the religious right will ignore - they're off believing in ghosts and Goblins or Religion's notion of God(which is the same thing as believing in ghosts and goblins).
Sorry, couldn't resist. ;)

Not trying to turn this into Outside---just planting my tongue in cheek.If you are serious about wanting to know what he left out, you can start here:
http://slate.msn.com/id/2102723/
is, were there any falsitites found in the film? The answer is a resounding "No". Even the ehadline issue is bogus, it does not state a false fact about 911, Bush, Iraq, Saudis, etc. It is the proverbial red herring. And the MSN article says literally nothing; not one fact CONTRADICTING Moore. Separate in your mind, beliefs you do not like, with falsity. BIG difference. THe MSN article has no facts that show Moore's docuemtnary to be incorrect. You think he should have posted all views, let Hannity speak in the film. Does Hannity let the left speak? Nope, interrupts them and turns their mike down.
I just think it is sad that so many people are giving creedence to Moore, when he is leaving out huge parts of the story---implying things that simply aren't the whole truth. He did the same thing with Columbine.If he's so sure of himself and his point of view, why not lay it all on the table? I don't need him to do my thinking for me.
And, by the way, a true "documentary" would cover as many bases as possible---not leave gaping holes---otherwise it is simply propaganda. Moore has an agenda, and he's doing a good job of pushing it---everyone who sees it needs to realize that, and take it with a grain of salt.
If the Bush admin released a "documentary," I have a feeling those praising Moore would be quick to dismiss it as pure schlock---which it would be. The knife cuts both ways...
These stories of important factual omissions, are like sightings of Bigfoot.
Mishmashmusic,A few weeks ago, you drew our attention to an aritcle from the Ft Smith Times-Record. Are you from that part of the country?
Not from there, must have run across it along the way. I don't even remember which article you're referring to, to tell you the truth. You musta been lurking Outside ;)
Just another Kool aid drinking Bush lover. :(
I'm seriously considering voting third party, if you must know. I just don't understand why you have to be a Kool-Aid drinking Michael Moore worshipper. Especially when he's trying to fight lies with more lies. Just doesn't work that way.
