True, but most of it had to do with Moore's Oscar acceptance speech.

I can't believe he won an oscar for that ego-maniacal bullshit. He attacked Heston with questions he himself couldn't answer. The poor guy had alsheimers for christ sakes! And the whole title is a mistake, the two guys at Columbine didn't go bowling at 6:00am, so way to screw that up, dickhead.

God, he makes me so mad I want to shoot him.

I don't remember if Heston had actually been diagnosed at the time he gave the interview.

But yes, it is true that Moore distorts facts. It's not like he's even coherent in his arguments, either. "Bowling for Columbine" is supposedly about how it's not the guns that are the problem, but America's "culture of fear" or whatever. And Moore told Phil Donahue he thinks handguns should be banned, but then said in the same interview that he didn't think banning guns reduced violence. He can't keep his own story straight.

This site tells about the deceptions Moore used in BFC: http://www.hardylaw.net/Truth_About_Bowling.html

One of the things he did in Mr. Heston's case was cut-and-paste parts of different speeches, given months apart. Read the site for other things he did.

I doubt there will be any controversy about Rampage, simply because no one will give a Tinker's fuck about it. It won't be in theaters long enough for anyone to care.
