Rumor has it in places like NAMES & FACES (washingtonpost.com) that Ray Bradbury is ticked at Michael Moore for naming his new film the way he has. Trouble is, the only place I see anything about it is from a Swedish magazine, and the interview doesn’t sound like Ray at all. Can anybody provide confirmation who actually knows Ray and has spoken to him recently?

Author Ray Bradbury thinks Michael Moore’s title will confuse people with his classic sci-fi novel Fahrenheit 451 and he wants Moore to change it. “He can’t have my title,” said Bradbury. “We’ve got an important film coming out [Fahrenheit 451], the book’s having its 50th anniversary in October. If he wants his movie to be an homage to me, why not title it, ‘Bradbury, where the hell are you now that we need you?'” (Variety)
