I see some southern "Christian" groups are boycotting Moore's film

[Bluebear]

So I intend to purchase some blocks of tickets and invite the senior center residents to enjoy a movie on me.

[Snoggera]

1. Good for you!

when it's out on dvd or vhs, you can count on fever-pitched groups full of themselves and their unique brand of insanity having bash,burn and break parties.

All in good frat-type fun, of course.

[cheezus]

2. boycotting a movie that has nothing to do with christianity

for its politics.... yep, sure glad they all have tax exempt status

[donco6]

3. That's sorta like a fish boycotting a beach vacation.

As if there was any chance of them ever seeing the movie anyway.

[DaveSZ]

4. Kerry's first Executive Order should be to:

Revoke tax exempt status of the Fundie churches

[Snoggera]

5. but but

Where would all the hungry go to get their daily dose of pre-gruel prayers?

edit: forgot to mention that sarcasm is alive and well in good ole Snoggera.

[Bluebear]

7. I hope this movie makes a mint

Idiot Eisner bowing to Jeb is a huge financial mistake.

[Fear]

9. soooooo, should we buy the movie?, since Eisner is striking up the money?

perhaps it was a nice marketing trick ;) :S -> in that case it worked eh?!

[sundancekid]

13. Louse Mouse Eisner is out of the money loop now -- it's in the

hands of the Weinstein brothers personally (not their Miramax company); and since this movie just (a couple hours ago) won the highest prize (the Palme d'Or) at the Cannes Film Festival .... well, you know the rest .............. it will make a double fortune -- give a bow to irony-in-truth for a change!

[Snoggera]

26. More than a financial mistake

of monumental proportions.

This was a mistake in gauging the zeitgist.

He doesn't know how to make money anymore. Poor bastard. Send him off to the rich folks home to slumber in his ignorance for the next 40 years while starlets feed him grapes.

Let's see. That wasn't sarcasm. What the hell was that I just wrote?

[SemperEadem]

28. the imagineering department really can't manufacture reality

hell of a thing to find out about now!!!

[Media_Lies_Daily]

6. Of course. They don't want to see the truth about the FratBoy Fuhrer.

[sundancekid]

8. what a great idea -- the buying blocks of tickets -- that is

btw, can you give us any links to these boycotters???? I would surely like to know who all they are. Thanks.

[Kazak]

10. Wouldn't want the truth getting out, don't ya know...

;)

[Sandpiper]

12. Yet again, fundie christians use their religion

As a mask for their true god, the Republican Party.

[schultzee]

18. The golden calf is the republican god

[bullimiami]

14. Whatever.

They are completely morally corrupt.

Truly, when you think about what is anti-christ or anti-christian Bush and this swarm of twisted fundamentalist freaks fits the mold.

[nofurylike]

15. good. their loss. not like truth penetrates their haze, anyway.

i, personally, don't want them in theaters with me.

btw, plastic_turkeys, great taking senior center residents to enjoy with you! i may copy you! :)


peace

[Bluebear]

19. Please do copy the idea :)

I may make red, white and blue "Freedom" popcorn bags lol.

[nofurylike]

20. thank you! popcorn bags, all the better! :)

your plan is an antiboycott. i say, spread the word!

take a center to F911!


peace!

[Yupster]

16. How do you boycott a movie?

You just go or you don't go.

[schultzee]

17. Fantastic Idea! Southern rePIG christians boycott everythng that

makes "our Pres-eh-dent look like his true character. They are cowards and fascitst.

[rebellious woman]

21. I'm getting sick of these connie x's, and their crap...keep them there

and please keep the gates closed and locked. Their becoming sicker
by the day.

[aquaman]

22. I'm glad......

Because all that will do is publicize the movie even more free of charge. Michael should thank them.

[mitchum]

23. How can they "boycott" something that they wouldn't consume...

anyway? I don't think that cracker fundies were ever big fans of Moore before.
Now, if they were boycotting all-you-can-eat buffets and Dale Earnhart paraphernalia, that would be something.

[rumguy]

24. What would you expect from ignorant fucktards?

[swinney]

25. Southern Baptist stood alone on War.

Only major religious organization in USA to support the war before the attack.

[Blue Gardener]

27. Good...Then I'm sure not to be sitting next to them

Maybe it evens out, I didn't go see "Passion" either. Prefer not to spend a couple of hours in a theater with a bunch of fundies. The crowd at "Fahrenheit 911" should be much easier to be around.

[napi21]

29. How can you boycott something that's not available?

I can understand the boycott if it was playing at the local theater. In fact, I'd expect it. But it's not! Michael is still searching for someone to market it.

Talk about fighting against what might be!
