Damn. Would have been interesting if he died immediately after the year of McDonalds.

McD's probably didn't help the cancer, quote from the article:

"It took Spurlock 14 months to lose the weight he had gained during the experiment."

Wasn't he drinking a lot during the making of it, contributing to his health problems?

It would have been even more interesting if he wasn't a lying drunk.

Most of the weight gain was due to being an alcoholic.

Yes, Super Size Me with Whiskey was a much better documentary.

In 2017, "Super Size Me 2: Holy Chicken!" was slated to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival, but it was shelved at the height of the #MeToo movement when Spurlock came forward to detail his own history of sexual misconduct.
From the linked article. Did not know this.

Weird. I just watched a Youtube video talking about how the veracity of Super Size Me was pretty questionable.

Supersize Me 2 was streaming at some point, not sure which service but it was an interesting watch on the chicken industry. His 30 Days series was also super interesting.

I had not heard he was a drunk during filming of Supersize Me.

If I had to eat 90 consecutive meals at McDonald's, I would also be a drunk.

He had alcohol problems that contributed to his bad health apparently.
Sad for sure.

I think he had stopped drinking for that period. So most of his sickness "from McDonald's" was really just withdrawals.

Fat Head was a good rebuttal documentary to Supersize Me if you never saw it.

Morgan Spurlock is such a documentary film maker name. That dude was never destined to be like an auditor at EY or something.

He was a good filmmaker but nothing he did was reality.

I liked it when on his show he sent a computer programmer to India to get a job because his job was outsourced abut the programmers skills weee out of date and he couldn't get a job in India other than customer support.

And I love the guy that only ate McDonald's for a month and lost 10 lbs because he ate the healthier choices.
