Has Morgan Spurlock (of Super Size Me) found Osama Bin Laden?!

Sounds like sales talk to me. If he'd actually found him, why would he keep that information to himself until the movie is released?

the secret twist is that he actually found Carmen San Diego instead.

what the fuck was that joke? terrible. glad i got my sleep now.

onto making mediocre jokes instead of terrible ones!

maybe he just found his dialyzer.

And roll on the promo interviews.

He turned the stone and looked beneath it, but "Peace on Earth" was all it said.

Dude's in the Onion AV Club this week.

And when he says, "Enjoy the movie," he means it, because he is the sort of documentary director who believes nonfiction filmmaking and fun can be synonymous.

ACH anyone who says they made something "FUN" is probably the kind of person who, you know, they interview you for a job, and they've got some Hawaiian shirt on, all saying, "Yeah, we got a real rock 'n' roll atmosphere in it. You know. Taking it easy! Having FUN!!! So the job is you walk door-to-door in industrial parks and try to sell offices prints of famous arts on commission, and you're the kind of party lady that can really sell!"

This guy is so grating. I couldn't handle that fucking last film of his for so many reasons, and he was the main one.

Gabbo!

I actually liked Super Size Me, and his tv show is decent viewing during the small portions of the year it airs, so I'm sure I'll probably see this and "have fun".

In a word, no.

I'm kind of curious to see how he pulls this off tone-wise since it's a little more serious than lol mickey D's makes you fat, whereas if Michael Moore was making this movie I'd know exactly what it'd be like and would have no desire to see it.

his shocking conclusion: Osama bin Laden makes you fat

But what if Michael Moore found Osama bin Laden?

the review of this in time out is funny

No one’s choice as an intelligent ambassador to the Middle East, Super Size Me’s Morgan Spurlock aims his latest docu-stunt at those who haven’t read a newspaper since the Clinton administration. Unconvincingly framed as an act of conscience—Spurlock’s wife is pregnant, and he’s wary of bringing a child into a world where terrorism exists—the movie chronicles the director-impresario’s efforts to find Osama bin Laden and other high-ranking members of Al Qaeda.

Before he launches into his tour, though, Spurlock acclimates us to his accustomed level of narcissism. He gets vaccinated (hey, it’s the doctor from Super Size Me!) and takes a ludicrous class in self-defense training. Then it’s off to Egypt, Morocco, Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan and Pakistan, with each country’s visit accompanied by a consistent level of insight: “We’ve been in Egypt, talking to people, who are real people, just like you and me.”
Spurlock’s self-conscious doofus shtick won’t do much to improve perceptions of Americans abroad; what he learns is that poverty is rampant, and that many of those “real people” would be thrilled to see bin Laden brought to justice. One professor suggests that bin Laden essentially legitimized an American presence in the Middle East—an insight to which Spurlock might as well respond, “Would you like fries with that?”

Dude LOVES to go to the doctor. There was one episode of his TV show where the bit was "30 Days on Mimimum Wage," and no health insurance, and by day 15 him and his girlfriend were both like "Oh no! We have headaches and maybe bunions! What do we do without heaaaaaallllllth insuuuuuurance?!?!?!" Well, you know what the working poor do? They go to work.

this is sounding more and more like http://images.apple.com/moviesxml/s/warner_independent_pictures/posters/lookingforcomedyinthemuslimworld_l200609121125.jpg

(Please understand: I am not arguing that living on minimum wage is fun, or that being without health insurance is not a bad thing. It is indeed a bad thing, particularly when you are sick. What I am arguing is -- these two whiners are not sick.)

too late, the Clinton campaign already issued a statement denouncing you for denigrating the common man.

i liked the tormenting the vegan chef girlfriend aspect of the first movie
