Whether he's bashing former President George Bush or slamming Wall Street's infrastructure, filmmaker Michael Moore always has an opinion. So there's no wonder he has something to say about conservative rocker Ted Nugent's latest spits about President Obama and Mel Gibson's most recent rants. Hollywood.com caught up with the infamous Fahrenheit 9/11 director/producer at the Tribeca Director Talks Sunday in NYC — and Moore couldn't help but imagine a documentary about the two headline-baiting celebrities.
"I've always liked Ted's music — and for a long time, I thought this whole rock 'em sock 'em Motor City Madman thing was just an act, but I guess it's real," Moore told Hollywood.com. "Can you imagine him and Mel Gibson on a road trip?"
That's a plotline that would make Hunter S. Thompson jealous. But what if Moore were to direct a documentary about their antics? "I think you just call it Crazy," he said. "There's already a song for the sound track, 'Crazy' [singing Patsy Cline's hit]."
Were Nugent's words crazy enough to warrant a meeting with the Secret Service? (The musician had said if Obama was re-elected, he'd be "dead or in jail by this time next year.") Moore thinks so. "Every threat against the President has to be investigated," Moore said.
