I would go to see a movie by Ann Coulter if Roger Ebert gives it a good review and it is controversial – _especially_ if any group doesn’t want me to see it. ---

Unfortunately or otherwise, there is no chance that Roger Ebert would give such a movie a good review. As I mentioned earlier, Coulter has written a couple of books that received a few good reviews, and were certainly controversial. Would you read them? I recommend Slander over Treason, if only because the first is better documented. Regards, Shodan ---

I’d go see it. It is politically relevent to the history making time we’re in. ---

I’d go see it. I’ve read both of Ann Coulter’s books. Thoroughly enjoyed them. On the other side of the coin, I’ve also read _Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot_. Thoroughly enjoyed it. I refuse to support Michael Moore, so I will not be seeing his latest celluloid bowel movement. ---

I would not go to see Ann’s movie, and I will definitely not be seeing F911. I’m a conservative, if it matters. ---

The film is **Dead On Time** [by](http://atomfilms.shockwave.com/af/content/atom_303) James Larkin. However, since the person making the movie (in movie-within-a-movie, not the actual short film) was trying to become the first visually recorded suicide of the new millenium, I guess we can’t get Moore or Coulter to do a reenactment. 😉 I had to ask. I’m having a hard time getting past the fact that Ms. Coulter probably doesn’t have the skills to make a movie. Presuming that she could, we would see the same thing we see with Moore - outcries from the opposition, amens from the choir. ---

Some interesting technical challenges, like how to make Tim McViegh look swarthy, hirsute, and vaguely Arabic, and how to present an acolyte of the _Turner Diaries_ as a liberal. Little tough there, but entirely within Ms. Coulter’s genius for obfuscation. The scenes of executing a few liberals as an example to the rest should be no sweat, just so longs they run the disclaimer “No actual cowardly, craven, freedom-hating traitors were harmed in the making of this movie”. Borrowing a few scenes from _Passion_ might help jazz up the “invade thier countries, kill thier leaders, and convert them to Christianity” sequences. Of course, the Jesus I heard about doesn’t cozy up to conversion by fear, but she went to a different Sunday School than I did. The flights of fancy about Ms. Coulter as porn _auteur_ has one obvious snag: not that many people are prepared to accept a cloaca as an erotic orifice. ---

And **elucidator** wins the “Most Obscure Joke of the Year” award! (Look up “cloaca” yerselfs, ya freeloaders.) So, is Annie amphibian, avian, or reptilian? Then again, to judge from some of the threads in MPSIMS, there are “people” on this board who would accept a Colt 45 as an erotic orifice. . . . ---

Look at what this jackanapes, this whipper-snapper, this Enfant Terrible posted today! > [@Evil Captor](#): > > They were so commonplace in my school that the entrances to all the classrooms had cloaca rooms. Wow. I’ve never had a pun physically HURT before. Made me wince, yes. Chuckle, occasionally… but to actually fire up the neuron sequences, the exact ones!.. corresponding to “barbed wire through the teeth”… Impressive. By the way, so as not to turn this into a total hijack, you better believe I’d go to an Ann Coulter movie. I love to hate right-wing movies/books/radio shows. It’s like a purification ritual for me… all that pain has to be good for the soul somehow. ---

If the hypothetical non-existent Ann Coulter movie is as factually accurate as her books, an enterprising person will be able to make a truckload of money on the talk-show circuit debunking it. 🙂 ---

Moore wanted to show Bush being a bungler and corrupt. It wasn’t hard. All he needed to do was put the footage together - the problem was editing it _down_. Where is Coulter going to find footage of liberals being traitors? Or of the salutary effects of Arabs converting to Christianity after their leaders are killed?
