Michael Moore to release latest film on internet for free
Posted on September 5th, 2008 by Hot Momma
Michael Moore will release his new film “Slacker Uprising,” online and for free. The movie, follows Moore’s 62-city tour during the 2004 election to rally young voters. It will be available for three weeks as a free download to North American residents, beginning Sept. 23. The 97-minute long “Slacker Uprising” will be the first major film to be released in such a way. Last December, “Jackass 2.5″ was streamed online and for free, but that was only a collection of left over material from “Jackass 2.”
Moore said he considered releasing “Slacker Uprising” theatrically as “Michael Moore’s big election year movie” as he did with 2004’s “Fahrenheit 9/11,” which was highly critical of President Bush. Instead, Moore opted for a symbol of gratitude to his fans as he approaches the 20th anniversary of his first film, 1989’s “Roger & Me.”
“I thought it’d be a nice way to celebrate my 20th year of doing this,” Moore said. “And also help get out the vote for November. I’ve been thinking about what I want to do to help with the election this year.”
