Michael Moore Going for Best Picture

As we all know by now, Michael Moore LOVES attention. He’s just found a new way to get more of it too. It seems that Moore has decided to NOT submit Fahrenheit 9/11 for consideration for the Best Documentary Oscar at the upcoming awards. Instead, he is submitting his fim for consideration in the overall Best Picture category.

This is a gutsy move. In the Documentary category he’s a shoe in to win… but for Best Picture? I don’t know about this. To be honest, even though I liked Fahrenheit a lot… it’s just not as well put together as Bowling for Columbine, and I really doubt it stands a chance of even getting nominated for Best Picture, let alone win it.

But at the heart of it is this… weather you like him or not, Michael Moore cares more about effecting political change in his country than he does about winning another trophy. By putting Fahrenheit up for Best Picture, it’ll get people talking… AGAIN. This is strictly a move (in my opinion) to try to have Fahrenheit 9/11 make as much of an impact on the upcoming election as possible. Whether that’s a good thing or a bad thing is up for you to decide.
