Election time is coming in the US, and suddenly your votes are more important than your money. At least that's how Michael Moore sees it, whose new movie, titled "Slacker Uprising," will premiere on the net for free on September 23, followed by a DVD which will be released through Amazon.com and Netflix on October 7. Blip.TV will host the download; hopefully, they've upgraded their servers, because the demand is going to be huge.
The movie is basically a document of Moore's tour through 62 US cities in swing states during the 2004 U.S. presidential election; obviously, it didn't work out as well as Moore intended it, so now he's hoping he can recycle it for another go. It's not a bad idea, though; his earlier movies, while being amongst the highest grossing documentaries ever, also sparked an immense interest on social media sites such as Digg and Reddit. This one will be no exception, as it's aimed directly at twenty somethings who usually spend their time doing, well, not that much. Check out the trailer below.
