Comments on: Michael Moore to Target Homophobia in Next Film? http://www.filmjunk.com/2007/07/13/michael-moore-to-target-homophobia-in-next-film/ Blog and Podcast Fri, 10 Feb 2012 15:42:40 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: nervousrex http://www.filmjunk.com/2007/07/13/michael-moore-to-target-homophobia-in-next-film/comment-page-1/#comment-168572 nervousrex Sun, 15 Jul 2007 20:42:38 +0000 http://www.filmjunk.com/?p=4820#comment-168572 Micheal Moore may be jumping the gun on his next topic. It's obvious that Health Care is a topic that resonated with people from all walks of life (except, of course, the medical establishment, corporations, rich people and the government) He should choose whatever taboo is closest to the surface of the national consciousness. It seems to me that a film on racism is more in line with what the public is willing to talk about at this time. After all, we have an African American right now seriously contending for presidential candidate. I think the subject of race appeals to a wider audience, although it may actually be too dangerous a subject. Micheal Moore may be jumping the gun on his next topic.

Theres not a whole lot of facts and figures out there that people would dispute about this whole thing either, really the whole movie would be heartstrings pulling and moralizing, something Moore very much likes to do. The only downside, and I dont think Moore should give a shit, is that a movie telling America that its okay to be gay wont exactly bring in the crowds. It would be interesting.
