Its time to take action to stop Michael Moores Bash America film, Fahrenheit 9/11. Michael Moore has attacked our troops, attacked our Commander in Chief and attacked the victims of 9/11 saying: The passengers on September 11 were scaredy-cats, because they were mostly white. Moore has sought to undermine our military saying that The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not insurgents or terrorists or The Enemy. They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow and they will win. Now Michael Moore has a new movie coming out, Fahrenheit 9/11 which according to one British newspaper, Moore hopes that it will bring down the U.S. government. This movie is nothing more than a political campaign advertisement against the war on terrorism, our troops and President Bush. So why on earth are ANY movie theaters showing this film? Fahrenheit 9/11 should be shown as a recruiting video for Al-Qaeda, not in our movie theaters. Please join us in telling the movie theater companies below your opinion as it relates to their attempt to profit from the showing of Fahrenheit 9/11. Since we are the customers of the American movie theatres it is important for us to speak up loudly and tell the industry executives that we dont want this misleading and grotesque movie being shown at our local cinema. We need these executives to be overwhelmed with letters, phone calls and FAXes in addition to emails. Sending an email alone is not enough since in some cases an aide can easily click DELETE. We would like to thank those individuals at Lions Gate Entertainment and IFC Films who support our efforts. Note: Please contact us via-email at: info@MoveAmericaForward.org to report a movie theater playing Fahrenheit 9/11 which is not listed below.

The Michael Moore PR machine thanks you.
No I did not put a lot of time and effort into this. Just copied some source code from another website.
He needs to be given the silent treatment, no response ., is required, hes the bore of the century. the more he rants on the better.
Does anyone have a list of where and when the movie is premiering/playing? It would be an excellent freep opportunity.
It isn't going to be in many theaters at least.
I haven't paid much attention but I believe I read somewhere that around 400 theaters nationwide...
And I would bet that it will be pulled after the first week...that's why Moore is out pushing it...
It's definitely not going to be another "Passion" that's for sure. LOL
So who are "we", and if you are not Democrats, then who the hell are you?
I find these quotes to be quite troubling.
... and go stand in front of my local theater.
The last time I used it against 350 local anti-war protesters, I stood alone and stole the front page photo and 25% of the story in our Anchorage paper, from THEIR Rally.
Cars and trucks were swerving as they caught sight of my sign across the street from the assembled DumbocRATS and clueless University Peaceniks. Frowns and angry faces in traffic turned into smiles and horn blasts and thumbs-up for me. When I got home a little old lady had left a VM thanking and God Blessing me. (THAT was my best reward)
I walked away from the experience knowing I had made a difference ... I really put the screws to the local Marxist/peace movement that day, with all their humongous handpainted earth posters, and BLOOD for Oil posters and costumed pigs, and devils w/ GW masks, etc etc and a PA filled with local leftist-luminaries.
It was especially sweet for me since I was aquainted with many of the organizers.
I didn't stand out there with an angry face, screaming [this time] ... instead I was laughing and waving and inviting the passers-by to head across the street and join Hanoi Jane Fonda at the sign-in table. That sure left the late arrivers with quizzical looks. More laughs for me!!
Most fun I've EVER had at a protest [though I do not recommend protesting alone, for obvious reasons]
I'm convinced that sarcasm, wit and humor will come out on top at a Protest Rally if you can just find the right combination ... makes the other side look foolish and laughable.
BTW I found the top part of my al Qaeda sign idea right here on FR, thanks again to an unknown FReeper.
I remember when most here said nobody should say anything negative about the Passion until they saw it and made up their own minds. Different this time I guess.
I'm sure Mr. Moore appreciates your opposition more than you might ever know. He is an incredible narcissist, and thrives on conflict. So much so that when he doesn't find it, he invents it.
As with all breeds of troll, of which Moore is a particularly repugnant breed, the more you fight him, the stronger he gets. For a time, he may revel in his ill-gotten vainglory, but his star will soon fade, because he is a one-trick pony.
The fact that less than half of the theaters that originally planned to show Moore's film are actually doing so has far more to do with economics than concern about controversy. Some of the big money-makers in film history packed in crowds while protesters picketed outside.
Those who are not easily amused are already growing weary of hearing Moore sing the same old tired song. Contrary to popular myth, most people are smart enough to see through Moore's puerile propaganda. The ones that can't never will.
But even Joe Average is catching on to what Moore is really all about, and if you listen, you can hear most of America yawning at the news of another Moore movie. Everyone not yawning, whether they are for or against Moore, is nothing more than a customer or an accomplice. That includes both sycophants and protesters alike.
Trust me, he loves it when people get mad and protest against him. It makes him feel important, gives him valuable free publicity and allows him to bill himself as a "controversial" "documentarian" who knows how to "strike a nerve".
For my part, I've decided not to waste any more time on him than necessary, and recommend you do the same. But if you wish to protest and oppose him, that's your right, it's a noble thought and if it's worthwhile to you, then by all means go for it with my blessing.
FRegards,
Imal
(And for the record, there's only one "t" in "profitting".)

......."But if you wish to protest and oppose him, that's your right, it's a noble thought and if it's worthwhile to you, then by all means go for it with my blessing. "
The problem with this is that all it does is call attention to the movie and thereby people will want to see what all the fuss is about. The old adage of things that are forbidden are always more intriguing would probably fit here. I tend to agree with your first sentence about Moore appreciating and thriving on opposition.
Thanks for the ping. I sure am sick of hearing about this guy and this movie. I sure wouldn't waste my money on it!
