record-eagle.com — The Traverse City Michigan screening of a movie critical of documentary filmmaker Michael Moore has been canceled. "Shooting Michael Moore" was scheduled to start a one week run on Friday but the company halted plans to show the movie today, on the eve of a press conference organized by Moore supporters to protest the movie.

Moore supporters protesting a movie about Michael Moore, how ironic.Looks like a bit of a double standard to me.

Good comment.I would add that not only did Michael Moore criticize issues, decisions and policies, but he was vindicated by the truth. I don't know of any credible source that has ever been able to disprove facts he brought to our attention. No one ever claimed the $10,000 prize he offered to anyone who could disprove any of the facts in Fahrenheit 9/11.Michael Moore NEVER promoted violence or even insinuated that he promoted violence. He is anything BUT violent.

Yes, i would really like too see a movie covering some counterpoints of Moores movies.I admit im not a huge fan of his. I havent watched any of his movies all the way through. He has good points and a good message some of the time but what bothered me about his movies was how intensely biased they were. The movies dont seem to give a very good, rounded perspective of the topics covered. It is true that he chooses good facts that cant be readily disproven, but using my own knowledge of the topics, its real apparent that he omits many facts and information that dont fit his version of the truth. I believe there are usually two sides to evey coin. His moves always seem to cover only one.The recent movie Slacker Uprising I didnt like how he talks down to people who dont think the same way he does. Insulting their beliefs, and making assumptions about their eduction and lifestyles. Very arrogant. Many people prefer to have their point of view molded by one mans opinion. I prefer to have my own.
