Apparently there's at least one group trying to organize a campaign against "Fahrenheit 9/11," and they're contacting movie theaters trying to pressure them to not show the film. For whatever good it will do, I wrote the following note to Carmike in the hopes that I might be able to offset some of the right-wing freakazoids:
I have just learned that there is an organization trying to prevent theaters from showing "Fahrenheit 9/11." This organization has Carmike listed on their website (http://www.moveamericaforward.org/MichaelMoore/) as "undecided" with regards to this film. I don't know if this is accurate or not. If you are already planning on showing the film, great. If you are undecided, I am offering my voice of support for this film, and asking that you please exhibit it. My wife & I will be there opening weekend, and we always buy popcorn.Posted by Jason at June 14, 2004 02:28 PMJason
