wow, unbeliveable great start of the Michael Moore’s documentary Fahrenheit 9/11, which won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Festival.

  • More people saw “Fahrenheit 9/11” in one weekend than all the people who saw “Bowling for Columbine” in 9 months.

  • “Fahrenheit 9/11” broke “Rocky III’s” record for the biggest box office opening weekend ever for any film that opened in less than a thousand theaters.

  • “Fahrenheit 9/11” beat the opening weekend of “Return of the Jedi.”

  • “Fahrenheit 9/11” instantly went to #2 on the all-time list for largest per-theater average ever for a film that opened in wide-release.

    • How about Letterman’s Top Ten List: “Top Ten George W. Bush Complaints About ‘Fahrenheit 9/11′”:

    10. That actor who played the President was totally unconvincing

    9. It oversimplified the way I stole the election

    8. Too many of them fancy college-boy words

    7. If Michael Moore had waited a few months, he could have included the part where I get him deported

    6. Didn’t have one of them hilarious monkeys who smoke cigarettes and gives people the finger

    5. Of all Michael Moore’s accusations, only 97% are true

    4. Not sure – – I passed out after a piece of popcorn lodged in my windpipe

    3. Where the hell was Spider-man?

    2. Couldn’t hear most of the movie over Cheney’s foul mouth

    1. I thought this was supposed to be about dodgeball

    The start of the Moore’s documentary is also very good in France ;-)
