Sick Sick Sick

This is unheard of!

Michael Moore scored a pretty deal for his new documentary, Sicko.

The director will make 50% of Sicko‘ gross profits!!!!

If this movie makes as much as or close to his last movie, Fahrenheit 9/11, then Moore is going to be making tens of millions of dollars.

SICK!

“It’s a really interesting irony for me,” Moore says of his expected financial windfall. “What it should do to me is remind me every single day that I have an even greater responsibility to do good with the success that I have been blessed with. I need to make sure that I am able to make the next film with the money that I have made on this film. The money allows me to never have to give in, never compromise. Nothing can ever be held over my head in the sense of, ‘If you don’t do this, we won’t give you your money!’ ‘Oh, wow, I guess I’ll be in really bad shape, won’t I?’ That’s an enormous bit of freedom that I have ├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ to stay completely true to the things I believe in. But I have an even greater responsibility because I have been blessed with that great success. I challenge myself with that, constantly.”

Congrats, brother.

You earned it! Enjoy it well!
