Showtimes for '2016: Obama’s America' unavailable on top movie listing website
FOX News ^ | August 22, 2012 | Hollie McKay

The documentary “2016: Obama’s America,” which paints a bleak picture of the world should President Obama be re-elected, has been in theaters for a couple of months. But Yahoo! Movies, one of the biggest online movie listings sites, does not list its theaters or showtimes

While its easy to find out when and where the likes of “Expendables 2” and “Sparkle” are playing, in addition to independent films like “Sleepwalk With Me,” there are no listings for the Dinesh D’Souza-directed “2016.” In fact, Yahoo! Movies appears not to have the documentary listed in its database at all.

“I was interested in seeing the new movie, ‘2016: Obama's America’ so I went to Yahoo! Movies as I usually do to find the time and showing. I found that you cannot search for it on Yahoo! Movies,” one disgruntled moviegoer told FOX411’s Pop Tarts column. “I checked the movie's site and found out where it was opening on August 24th and so I checked those theaters for that date and it does not show up. Is it possible that Yahoo! is trying to keep people from watching this movie?”

Yahoo! Movies did not respond to our request for comment. But the movie's director and producer did.

What makes you think Yahoo! has chosen sides?

If the GOP were smart (and I haven’t seen much evidence of that) they would secure the rights to the movie and put it on network TV several nights to get the fullest dissemination and educate the public about the kenyan and his plans for Socialist Amerika.

I just used Yahoo movies to look up my local cineplex and it shows “2016’ as starting on August 24.

Similar incident last week in the Orange Co. Register Fish-wrap. A family member went to their Entertainment section and there was nothing found for 2016, Said Family member gives them a call and asks whats up as there are a number of Theaters showing the film in Orange County. The answer “Some wires got crossed resulting in the movie not getting listed in the paper”

Ummm yeah, sure

Do you think the FOX article forced their hand?

No way to check whether archived cache’s to see whether Yahoo! had ‘2016’ listed before article?

If this movie went bootleg and hit the pirate video sites on the net...young potential voters would see it - it would go viral - fast.

"Do you think the FOX article forced their hand?"

They must still be trying to correct then. I check Yahoo Movies near me and there were no listings. I went to Moviefone and there were four listings. I then checked one specific multiplex theater and the Yahoo listing did not include 2016, but on Moviefone, it was shown with the rest.

Liberal elites are at war with the people of the United States.

I heard an interview with the producer. It seems they are doing a slow roll out on purpose. Building buzz by keeping it hard to see? He said it will be all over the country by election time.

I see the movie in the showtimes for local theaters. But it is greyed out so there is no graphic, review or trailer information for it. It’s not listed in the “Now in theaters” section.

have to thank Facebook, she noticed that I listed Big Trouble in Little China (her fav) as my favorite movie and I “like” Glen Beck...I am sure she will find out quickly that I am an idiot

It’s an arthouse movie, it’s on too few screen (arthouse screens probably) to be in the big list. But if your local arthouse does report data to Yahoo and you do the search for all movies in my town you’ll find it.
