Teabagger 2016 Film Challenge

[caraher]

So my sister-in-law is trying to wheedle my wife and me into seeing the "2016" Obama smear flick. She even gave us a link to a stream so we can't object to lining Dinesh D'Souza's pockets with the price of movie tickets. She also accepted my wife's rash challenge to watch a Michael Moore documentary in return.

So what documentary film would you ask a RW nutjob to watch in exchange for 90 minutes of your own life you're never getting back?

1. Any that I can think of would go right over their heads. nt

2. Sure

So if nothing else I'd like the level of suffering for my SIL in watching it to come as close as what watching 2016 would be for my wife. (I'm still trying to decide what the price of spousal solidarity is here...)

4. It's an interesting proposition for sure. But every time i see D'Douchesa's face I'm afraid

of what I'll do to my computer. Same thing happens with Ralph Reed.

3. I cant for the life of me

understand how this movie became the 2nd most grossing (pun intended) documentary ever.

7. I wonder if there were big block ticket buys

Kind of like what they do with all those Regnery Press books that get dumped through book clubs and WalMart. There's a difference between ticket sales and actually having people sit through the thing in a theater. I'm sure it's not all phantom filmgoers - the wingnuts will surely lap up D'Souza's pop psychology and bunk political science - but I don't see anything stopping say, the Koch brothers, from dropping a few million on tickets to goose the numbers.

I must add that I also have no evidence this is happening....

8. Very clever.

How many times have you seen it?

[Missycim]

9. Oh goodie

I have a stalker, I never had one before.

[Kingofalldems]

11. No not that. You remind me of someone.

I still say your post was clever though.

5. I picked Capitaliam: A Love Story but

Roger and Me is also a good choice.

6. Sicko is most effective for a RW-minded person

Everyone fears getting sick.

10. Well, turns out this is moot

My wife asked her to see "An Inconvenient Truth" (and got the reply, "Sure, I love comedies!&quot . I don't think it will have any real impact, but at least listening to Al Gore for an extended period of time will be like fingernails on a blackboard to her cold teabagger heart...

[Burma Jones]

12. Well, she can watch whatever movie you want, but what's more painful to her is the

realization that in the long run, she and her ilk will lose......they always do.

13. My choices aren't on here

but if it were I'd go with Koch brothers exposed, or The Billionaires' Tea Party.

[caraher]

14. Thanks for the suggestions!

I only listed Michael Moore films since I've seen them all and know they're pretty widely available.

[Care Acutely]

15. Capitalism, without a doubt.

[jmowreader]

16. Fair Game

Not a documentary but a reminder of what happens when you piss of Mafiosas like Bush and Cheney.
