FrigidSymphony wroterio wroteThey said they mocked him so harshly because he used the interview they did as part of a film whose message they didn't agree at all with... Which is probably a fair accusation, tbh.
Be that as it may, they just reinforce the perception of them as immature assholes. It's like Bill O'Reilly plus a lot of vulgarity.
Like Moore turned on Pete Townsend and tried to tar him as pro-Bush when he wouldn't allow him to use Won't Get Fooled Again for Farenheit 9/11? If I was Parker or Stone and saw interview footage recorded under false pretences and being used out of context in a film like Bolwing For Columbine I'd imagine I'd be pretty furious - and their medium is immature humour, so how else were they going to react to it?
For the record, I think Team America sucked, and the Michael Moore stuff was really toothless. If they'd actually made an intelligent/funny piss take of Moore what he really is maybe we'd have got something...but instead just a caricature of him...oh, he's fat, I get it...
