Wow, I didn't expect for it to be released only 3 weeks from now.

As long as the price of FH911 moves up a bit on the announcement I am fine with Mr. Moore.
Good news for him since he makes a few more million.

But that feeling will soon change.

There ya go.

In all seriousness, no one - I mean no one can say this isn't one of the most anticipated films of the year even if they aren't going to see it.
I can't wait and of course I will wait until after I see it to express my views to anyone. Just like I did with that piece of drudge BFC.

Daaaaannnnnggggg! I wasn't expecting a release anywhere near that soon. I would've been surprised if they had managed to get it out in the fall.
Still, given that Disney said a year ago they wouldn't release it, I imagine the Weinsteins have had a contigency plan in place all along. This may all be even more carefully crafted than it appears (except for winning Cannes). Oh well, what do I care how it gets out, so long as it does.

No thanks I'll pass I want nothing to do with that propagandist since he appeals to the hollywood crowd rather than middle america and he is notorious for twisting the truth to fit his own political ideology.

And, while Des Moines may not be a liberal hotbed, it is a city with a metro population of about half a million people (not exactly my definition of a small city). It wouldn't surprise me in the least to find that some of those people would be liberal. And, it also wouldn't surprise me to find that a couple of the theaters in the area might even be owned or managed by people with a more liberal bent.

Well, this is great news. While Im glad this is getting the go ahead, I'll still wait and buy the DVD. Then again, it opens two days before my birthday, so I might go see it if I can find a theater playing it. The Liberals will win the battle for America.

I officially love this thread.
"Stupid conservatives. I can't wait to piss em off. I hate em and I hope they die! Well I better leave this thread before the anger begins."
