If people really want to organize a boycott for the movies, organize a smart boycott. People are not going to totally stop seeing movies that they want to see. So tell people to boycott the movie just for the first week or two of its release. This is when the biggest percentage of the box office movie goes to the studios. After that, the local theater gets a much larger percentage. Not only does this keep the money from going back to Hollywood but it helps local theaters that often have to charge outrageous prices for food to stay in business. Bad for Hollywood. Good for local theaters. Let's people see the movies they want to see but they just have to wait a bit. That sounds like it would be a lot more successful than a total boycott to me.

We do have a thread list of the Hollywood America Haters and the Pro-American folks.
