Oprah to Ruin Sicko
"I wanna eat a corndog this big."
Okay, I'll admit: I'm a Michael Moore apologist. Without getting too political, I think the rush to discredit his points tends to hide the fact that he makes some pretty consistently entertaining movies.
That said, Oprah is all set to provide the kiss of death. According to /Film, she's having Moore on her show tomorrow and is all set to champion Sicko as the must-see movie of the summer to her audience of barking, half-retarded seals.
Mr. Moore, may I remind you of one thing: this is the woman who brought us Dr. Phil, do you really want her endorsement? She really is the worst kind of pompous blowhard - the kind whose fame comes with an inflated sense of entitlement and the gall to tell anyone who will listen that you can achieve anything you put your mind to, just like her! Pull yourself up by your bootstraps and be more like me, loser!
Three frownie faces for that: ;-( ;-( ;-(, and one for ruining East of Eden, which was a great book before you lumped it in with A Million Little Pieces. ;-(
