With over 24 million in the first week, this boycott idea is sure working...

Boycotts always sound good on paper, but their true efficacy always falls short. Some actually seem to get a lot of support, but almost always this support is from people who wouldn't have bought the product/service anyways.

I don't plan on seeing the movie, but that's only because I think Jodie Foster can't act her way out of a wet paper bag, not because of any union boycott.

"A rude flight attendant?!! Who could have thought of such a thing?!!"Really. Rude....or gay. Who'd'a thunk.

Give me a break. Are all professions supposed to be protected classes in fiction? All those 'The Butler Did It' locked room mysteries should have had the Domestic Servant industry up in arms as well.

Did they boycott Airplane! also?

'Fake' Bells go off when I see her on the screen. The harder she tries the worse she is and she clearly tries very hard. Peaked at 12 in Taxi Driver.

You ain't nothin' but a Waitress in the SkyTell that to the "waitresses" that helped evacuate the plane that crashed in Toronto last month without one fatality.

The Internet has made it easier for any and all groups of people to organize quicker. Just more media noise. I remember Foster has been in trouble with Homosexual Groups in the past because of the serial killer in The Silence of the Lambs.

The fine ladies down at the Waffle House get people out virtually every day without any fatalities.

There are so few films out there worth seeing (stuff that I might like) that I was looking forward to seeing this when it comes out on 'on demand'. Looked exciting and with a mystery to it.
The actions of the flight attendants in the movie won't influence me as to my opinions of them. My reactions to, or my feelings of them, come from real life situations --- not from a fictional movie. I can separate the two.

As a mother, I can't watch movies that harm/scare children. There's enough of that crap in the news.

A couple of weeks ago I actually saw the first young, pretty, charming flight attendant I had seen on a major US airline in years.
Problem was - she was almost completely insane, and treated the passengers like her kindergarten class. ;)
