When I think of mockumentary, I think of Spinal Tap.  

Would that be a mockumentary?

no. a mockumentary is presented in the same style as a documentary. those are just comedies.

Would you consider Schindler's List a mockumentary?  I'm referring to the new special edition version with a laugh track dubbed in.

Children on Easter egg hunt find guns instead

FLINT, Michigan (AP) -- -- A group of children hunting for Easter eggs Saturday during a church event found two loaded handguns outside an elementary school.

Flint police said officers were called to the scene and also recovered a BB gun and a broken toy gun on the grounds of Gundry Elementary School. No one was injured, Sgt. Michael Coote said.

One of the guns discharged when it was dropped, according to a police report, but it was unclear who dropped it.

The pastor of Ruth Street Baptist Church told WJRT-TV that one of the handguns had a bullet in the chamber, and the other handgun's clip had bullets in it.

"It's terrible that something like this has happened," Pastor Namon Marshall told the station.

Coote said he did not know how long the guns had been in the park.

Police opened an investigation after confiscating the weapons.

Quote from: ThecowgoooesmoooI thought I would create a thread devoted to this, because it has been on my mind for quite some time. The fact that Moore blatantly lies and fools the viewer to be swayed by his viewpoint. This liberal, like most liberals, is a total fool. What's funny is that Moore trys to sell Bowling for Columbine as a documentary when it is clearly a MOCKUMENTARY!

Any opinions or thoughts on this debate?

(and yes I do know, another thread has discussions about this, but I want this thread to be devoted to this arguement)

I agree.

Mockumentary.

Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, with all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves, let me forget about today until tomorrow.

Well, thank you for reviving a dead issue. That was asked a little over 4 months ago and ended shortly thereafter.

It's a documentary.
