31. Yes, I have seen enough to form an opinion
Roger & Me: Entertaining while still getting out some good info. Made for the people.
Canadian Bacon: Silly, pointless type of comedy that I am always drawn to. Remember enjoying it. Made to make people laugh.
TV Nation (TV series): Have only seen a couple, but nothing original enough to make me want more. Made for the people, but also to promote a certain view.

Bowling for Columbine: Full of half-truths and spin with sad attempts at dry humor. First of his movies that I had seen where HIS view seems to be more important than the truth. Made to influence people into accepting his view as the only acceptable truth.
F-9/11: Half-truths, spin and alot of twisting of facts made only to make a group of people look bad in any way possible. Made for ideological reasons.

Add in interviews where he says stupid shit like all Americans should pay 70, 80, 90 percent of all their earnings to the govt and it is easy to see that he is now more interested in pushing his ideology than he is with informing the people.

I prefer a "here is what is happening" rather than "here is what you should believe."
