His movies are not accurate documentaries. They are usually designed to show something (that he is against) through a highly sensationalized effort, depicting all sorts of clown acts.

This makes for good entertainment. I have only seen two movies, and was a huge fan of Bowling; it was very funny in its own way. Almost as if it was a drama version of Borat. Fahrenheit was uber lame. I was totally let down b/c he stepped back from the "funny stuff" and was actually making an attempt for the movie to be "credible".

Do I hate the guy? Yes. Why? B/c he is pretending. He is pretending that his work is important; that his views should be taken seriously. IRL, he is a clown b/c of this. If he would say "these are just movies that portray my exaggerated opinion on things" my respect for him would be 10x more.

There are lots of ppl who I hate, (figuratively), he is one of them.

This said, I am glad he makes movies. His work is very original (for mainstream type of stuff), so it def is a positive contribution for the sake of filmmaking.
