WTF? Anybody seen the ads for this movie where Michael Moore gets abused
by a bunch of wing nut lookalikes? I was in Costco when the ad came on and I thought it sucked but there were a few people who appeared greatly amused by all the smacking around, pies in the face etc.

1. "An American Carol": RW comedy for the masses...
cause, of course, all the comedy writers in Hollywood are liberals...

2. An American Carol?
Done by the guy that did Naked Gun and Airplane. A right winger. Robert Zemekis?

9. Zemekis
Zemekis directed Back to the Future.

This is by David Zucker, director of Airplane and The Naked Gun series.

3. Lookalikes? That O'Reilly guy looked like the real deal.
These are the people who think Mallard Fillmore is funny.

10. Moore should go to a showing on opening day and after the movie..
Fire up a camera crew and start asking the RW audience questions about ACTUAL issues that Mike champions. That would be very funny.
