Clint Eastwood: I'll Kill Michael Moore

"Dirty Harry" actor Clint Eastwood says if Michael Moore ever shows up at his door with a camera, he will kill the controversial movie director.

Eastwood stunned a New York filmmaking audience with his comments, the New York Daily News' Lloyd Grove reported today in his must-read column.


"Michael Moore and I actually have a lot in common - we both appreciate living in a country where there's free expression," Eastwood was quoted as telling the National Board of Review awards dinner in New York Tuesday night.

With a cold glare Eastwood took notice of Moore sitting in the audience and said bluntly and without a smile: "But, Michael, if you ever show up at my front door with a camera - I'll kill you."

The Daily News reports the audience erupted in laughter, and Eastwood grinned. "I mean it," Eastwood said again.

One of the few Republicans in Hollywood, Eastwood once served as mayor of Carmel, Calif.

Eastwood made his comments while accepting the Special Filmmaking Achievement prize for "Million Dollar Baby."

Moore was said to be in the rear of the audience when Eastwood made his biting remarks.

Moore also won the group's "Freedom of Expression" award for his Bush-bashing "Fahrenheit 9/11."

Apparently, Moore has not taken kindly to death threats in the past.

The News notes that last year "Moore was outraged when CNN anchor Bill Hemmer suggested during an interview that some folks might want to see him dead."

"Can you think of any other interview in the history of television where a politician or a movie director was asked about people wanting to see him dead?" Moore was quoted as saying.

Moore may have lightened up a bit. His agent told the News, "Michael laughed along with everyone else, and took Mr. Eastwood's comments in the lighthearted spirit in which they were given."

Still, we hope Michael Moore won't put Eastwood to the test and show up at his door with a camera.

"Go ahead, punk, make my day."

Clint used to be good, but now he just makes chick-flicks.  Michael Moore could probably beat him up.

I dunno. Moore looks like he has a weak chin. There's something to be said for Moore's weight advantage, but I wouldn't be suprised if Eastwood were in better overall shape, depsite his age.

I'd PPV it.

Clint would do the fighting alone

he would let his legally owned .44 mag do the talking for him.

heck even the sight of a gun might make MM cry and wet his pants anyway

I'd put a ten spot on Clint and not have any worries. I think he'd KO moore in less than a minute. There's no chance it would actually happen as moore would have to show up first.

Pathetic...

Clint used to have character, but he's clearly slipping into one of his characters.

I'd be suprised if Clint could beat up Muhammad Ali at this point.

I like Eastwood and I hope that idiot doesn't put Clints words to the test......

I have a feeling that he will though.....

[lada]

hmmm .... i hope they will not try it, mr. eastwood could have a heartattack while he will try to warm up before killing.

However jokes about killing journalists are not that common

He didn't threaten a journalist

In a computer simulation, Michael Moore faced off against Clint Eastwood.  The simulator was programmed for weight, age, physical attributes, mental stability, and other vitally important parameters required to settle this with supreme accuracy.


Here is a summary taken from the 275 pages of output:

"Clint beat Mike because Clint is a Republican and Michael is a left wing liberal commie Democrat."

"Results posted do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the testing agency.   All facts are assumed factual unles they are not.  Anyone whose nose gets out of joint is probably also a Democrat. "

if the story is true then he threatened a fellow entertainer in the movie business.

I think the reason more gets so upset over these things is because it makes him think back to school days and all the wedgies he got and the terror of just being him caused.

he has been trying to get back at the rest of us ever since but... faced with a real threat he would turn into a pants wetting, blubbering pile of jello.

I think this is far more entertaining...

At least these guys have nothing to lose, and the comedy factor is off the charts.

Poor Eastwood. Showing early signs of Alzheimer...

The best part is, Clint did it to his face, looking him in the eye (albiet across a room full of people).

I dunno, I think those that actually support/believe Moore are in the advanced stages of Iamasukkeritis.  Not deadly, but definately mind-numbing.
