moore v. disney

the news is that corporate disney has barred subsidiary miramax from distributing moore’s overtly anti-bush film farenheit 911. i’m thinking this is a huge mistake.

i’m just guessing this is a really bad business decision that could, maybe, just demonstrate that “film distributors” are becoming a bit redundant.

moore’s got an agenda, wether you agree with it or not, and i’m guessing he’s more interested in getting his film into people’s eyeballs before the election than he is into counting the ticket drop on opening weekend.

now that it’s made the news, how long will it take for someone to “leak” the film? i imagine it’ll find a legitimate distributor and an illegitimate one as well.

and maybe moore’s next film will feature a mouse…
