Moore to Release ’9/11′ DVD on Oct. 5
Mon Aug 16, 4:59 PM ET
LOS ANGELES – President Bush (news – web sites) will face a home-video barrage four weeks before the election: “Fahrenheit 9/11,” Michael Moore’s assault on Bush’s handling of the Sept. 11 attacks, debuts on DVD and videotape Oct. 5.
The announcement Monday confirmed Moore’s initial intention to have the film out shortly before Election Day, a time frame the director favored since May’s Cannes Film Festival (news – web sites), where “Fahrenheit 9/11″ won the top honor.
After the movie debuted to record box-office numbers for a documentary, distributor Lions Gate had indicated the movie might continue playing theatrically through the end of the year, potentially delaying the home-video release.For more of article click here. Be sure and watch the slideshow.
Deep Thought: I think my favorite monster movie is Gone With the Wind, because it has that ear monster and that big-dress monster.
Today I am grateful for: Having a life
End of Day – 8:31 pm

For a guy with an agenda and the machine he is fighting against I think he has fared pretty well…amazing the power of facts…
Yes, and thank goodness he really protected himself with legal advisors on this one. I deeply admire what he’s trying to do and hope he stays safe.
I don’t follow politics. I am, however, dreaming about getting a life. (I heard Clark Gable was a lousy lover. Think it was the ears?) LOL.
To me, getting a life has got to include politics. Otherwise, we all get to die – maybe sooner than we think. And I’m not even that political compared to some.
Moore has an absolute eye for America. He asks the questions no one else does.
ooooohh! good luck with the root canal!
I am so looking forward to this coming out on video and DVD.
It has not shown anywhere near my home, and I haven’t taken the 4-5 hour block of time needed to travel to and from the closest showing. This way, I can pop some Orville Redenbocker’s movie popcorn, and watch it with my boys (ages 13 and 14) who want to see it, as well.
