Another Cool Poster for Michael Moore's 'Capitalism'

Michael Moore is real hit-and-miss with me. I've only liked three of his films, Roger & Me, Bowling for Columbine, and Sicko, and in general, I find that his personality annoys me a great deal. He would no doubt say the same thing about me. But when he's on his game, he is the one of the best documentarians going, in part because of that personality. He makes first person documentaries, as opposed to the off-camera style of Errol Morris or just about every other practitioner of what we call non-fiction film, even though such a thing is virtually impossible to achieve. His latest film, Capitalism: A Love Story, opens in most of America this weekend. Moore tries to get to the bottom of the current financial crisis in order to show us what he believes is the best way out. We really liked the first poster, a mustard yellow throwback, but this new one is even cooler, in my opinion.

I have a question: If Moore posits in his movie that "Capitalism is Evil", why does Moore accept the money that the movie makes? Or from any of his past movies, for that matter? Isn't that, you know, capitalism? Earning wages for work performed? Is he then saying he's taking part in the very same system that he decries in his movie? I'm just saying.

BTW: Some comedian once had a joke about Moore that I thought perfectly captures his hypocrisy. It goes something like, "If you're going to constantly decry the excesses of America, you probably shouldn't weight 300 pounds".
