The liberals have to watch a movie to validate their beliefs, since the real world is at odds with their twisted beliefs.

Now let me get this straight, this movie "white chicks" is about two black (African American)men who are FBI agents,who dress up as White Women? What is the matter, didn't the FBI have two white agents or couldn't the black agents dress as black women?
To: Always Right
All the exit interviews I have seen tell me that Moore is preachung to the choir. Plenty of folks are seeing right through it. Even some who might agree with Moore are saying it is way over the top.

what's scary is not so much that it is #1, but that it is #1 with only 868 theaters (as opposed to 2726 for White Chicks). That means Fahrenheit is outselling by over 3-1 on a per screen basis.Well, the estimate is $9,447 per screen for Fahrenheit 9/11 versus $2,480 for White Chicks. That $9,447 is actually pretty huge. To put it in perspective, if that same ratio were for a wide-release blockbuster, it'd make around $104 million for the weekend.
It's best not to underestimate the mob of rabid liberals in America..

I did my own analysis. You have to go back to 2/20/04 to find the number one movie on a Friday pulling in less than $8,200,000.

We need to remember that 30% of the population have mental disease (Leftys > according to M. Savage)They can't help themselves but to go see this POS. So M.M. has a huge built in audience. The sad part is that these sheeple believe every minute of this tripe. It's scary to think that so many people are so gullible, and at the same time too lazy to spend a few minutes to research for the truth. They are truly dangerous.
When this POS is nominated for an Academy Award, which it most definitely will. There needs to be a major campaign to have it disqualified. Last I heard documentary's had to be based on facts not propaganda.

When was the last time a movie released on less than 1000 theatres made this kind of money? What I am saying is, lets stop the denial. This movie is immensely popular with some people, and it will break records for documentaries and other limited release movies.

Interesting that you left that factor out.

Oh, and if you look at the amount PER SCREEN, that may be an all time record.The all-time record is Spiderman's opening weekend of $31,768 per screen. Based on just this Friday estimate, Fahrenheit 9/11 is on track for $28,341 - but keep in mind the numbers typically go up on Saturday and again on Sunday. Either way, it will be very, very close to the record (the only other one I know of in the ballpark was Blair Witch Project with a $26,528 opening weekend average).

This movie will get much more play in the media in October when it is released on DVD.I wonder if the FEC is going to let him advertise the DVD?

They are intoxicated with hatred and this simply represents a Wellstone funeral redux. Here's hoping that the rage of the "liberal street" will be sated for awhile. A successful hand-over in Iraq and sound economic progress here at home may well push these frothing radicals further into the fringe.

I don't make a habit of noting the painfully obvious that everyone knows already - especially when it's already been mentioned about a half dozen times in the thread.
Obviously, you didn't need my help to be aware of the hype..

JMO, you cannot extrapolate such a politcal film for the whole US.
