The slob and the dictator

Here's another example of  lunacy, via The National Review's Marc Thiessen, Michael Moore as speechwriter for a dictator.
Michael Moore: Presidential Speechwriter 
Burning the midnight oil on book deadline last night, I saw Michael Moore on Jimmy Kimmel Live. He claimed to have helped Hugo Chavez write his address to the U.N. General Assembly while they were both [...]

Michael Moore proven a liar on national TV

Our friend George from The Real Cuba on the Michael Moore interview:
Oct. 11 - Michael Moore was interviewed on Friday, October 9, by Sean Hannity on Fox News Channel.
During the interview, Hannity played excerpts from Moore's documentary "Sicko" where he presented a false view of Cuba's healthcare.
Hannity then told Moore that he wanted to show [...]

Danny Glover: spokesman for the slavemaster

If I were in the DC area, I'd be out with a poster of Dr. Biscet and other Afro-Cuban political prisoners.   What say you Danny boy, don't you think your Cuban brothers deserve freedom and human rights the same as you enjoy?

CUBA CULTURAL DAYS 2009 to feature DANNY GLOVER. Guest of honor will be Cuban [...]

Commie love fest in Venice

One young Venezuelan woman I spoke with at last Friday's "No Más Chávez" rally in Los Angeles works for Agéncia EFE.  Her brother disappeared 10 months ago and the family is unable to obtain any information about what happened to him. He is one of the thousands of murdered and disappeared Venezuelans, all part of the death and [...]

Revisiting Hollywood’s fascination with dictators

I think most of us have seen this, but it remains timely, and worth a second viewing:

Tio Chano is back

Tio Chano vs. "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" brought to by you Joe Lima at Big Hollywood:

A movie Hollywood will never make – corrected

Please scroll down and read  Humberto Fontova's comment on my misinformed post.  I'm guilty of being too trusting and not doing enough research. Due to the late hour, I have not yet had a chance to contact the author, a good friend,  but I have no doubt of his good intent.  Meanwhile,  I apologize to our readers for [...]

Rome is burning…

but there's always time to meet with a Hollywood celebrity!

Don't worry folks, the fire is not going anywhere. Once they are done fawning over Brad Pitt they will get right back to work.
Really.
I'm not kidding.
Stop laughing already!

Jeff Spicoli speaks…

To me actor Sean Penn will always be Jeff Spicoli, the stoner character he brilliantly played in that classic 80's film, Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Don't get me wrong, Penn has gone on to do brilliant work in dozens of other films since then, but the Spicoli character, to me at least, personifies him [...]

When actors speak…

An actor without a script is about as useful as a car with an empty tank of gas; neither of them are very practical and all they really do is take up space. This is proven time and time again by such luminary thinkers such as Sean Penn, Susan Sarandon, Danny Glover, and a host [...]

SiCKO: Prepare to be Sickened

The American Thinker's Peter Barry Chowka, though a little wordy and adjectival, nevertheless does a good job thinking out Michael Moore's SiCKO stunt. He writes:
From start to end, SiCKO, the latest “documentary” from notorious writer and filmmaker Michael Moore, is a stunning example of the Big Lie. Almost shockingly devoid of fact and context, it's [...]
