This film is propaganda designed to shift the policy of this nation on climate change. At least that's what I take from producer Mark Gordon's comment that "part of the reason we made this movie" was to "raise consciousness about the environment." http://www.naurepublicans.com www.naurepublicans.com http://www.naurepublicans.com

It is so bad it will collapse of its own weight, but, okay...consider it boycotted.

Apparently, it sucks.
It likely will die a quick death. People would rather see "Shrek 2". Who the hell wants to be depressed on a holiday weekend, and pay ten bucks a head for the privilege?

I hear there's no need for boycotting. It's a stinker. That aside, things like movie boycotts just make conservatives look like wild-eyed geeks.

You have to be utterly insane to think a scifi movie is going to create a false awareness of global warming....the exact arguments against this movie could have been applied to Armageddon.....But I don't see people running around all day outside looking up to see if an asteriod is on a collison course with earth.
BTW, I just recived a call. My son has a sneak preview ticket for two to the movie tommorrow night. I'll be there, and laugh in the face of any global warming propagandists I meet.

Don't go to movies...big waist of my time...so call it a boycott if you want but I'm smart enough not to let Hollywood warp my mind. I can read a book and make their Technicolor look black and white...

It's just a movie - no better or worse than the rest of the
dreck Hollywood vomits on the country on a regular basis.
Probably has loads of special effects, but no real plot to speak of.
For me, I have no plans to waste $10 to sit in a crowded, stinking auditorium where I can't smoke or get drunk, just to feel like I've been ripped off by a preachy, leftist "entertainment" company.

Welcome to FR.
Art Bell was a co-author of the book this movie is based on. I understand the movie is full of effects that are scientifically impossible like hail the size of bowling balls. Environmental scare stories are so absurd that they can only hurt the libs. I wouldn't worry about it. As someone recently pointed out. No one will be sitting in sackcloth and ashes crying out, "Oh, if only we had listened to Art Bell!"

It looks like a good "disaster movie" with all the effects.
The only bad thing about it is the political hype attributed to it.
It is only hollywierd fluff and should be seen to have fun.

It's only a movie. I'm going.
Figure it's going to be like Independence Day.
To: 4moreW2004
Good grief, people. I fully intend to see it. It may not be any good, but I love big disaster movies and I've been looking forward to it for months. When we start calling for boycotts on disaster movies because we don't like what the writer chose as the impetus for the disaster, we look like a bunch of goobs IMO.

Arm yourself with this:
'Day After Tomorrow': A lot of hot air
Can't say I'm boycotting it per se, as I had absolutely no interest in seeing it anyway. But, I'll be sure to not see it even more now. ;)

The Day After Tomorrow, a disaster movie coming soon to a theater near you. MoveOn.org has touted the film as, "The Movie the White House Doesn't Want You to See." Haha!
More like "The Movie It's Producers Don't Want Critics to See."
Roger Friedman of FoxNews already called it a "$200 million bomb". Jake Glydenhal is an idiot (playing a homo cowboy in his next film), but I am surprised Dennis Quaid made such a dumb career move. This will make "Ishtar" look like "E.T." by box-office comparison.

The only thing this movie has done for me is to remind me to thank God that Al Gore lost the election. While psychotics are running amok trying everything in their power to get nukes, hijack planes and whatever else to kill women and children, Al Gores main concern is the temperature! Holy brain freeze Batman! The guy is a lunatic. I wonder how many people out there caught Al`s campaign symbol when he was running for Prez, the arc with the star? It`s the same symbol as the Energy Star symbol you find on your refrigerator that conserves energy when it`s not in use. This is the kind of mind that we almost had in the Whitehouse. A guy whose main concern was not about terrorism, the economy, health care, or taxes, but conserving energy with your appliances. That was the number one priority above everything else to Al Gore.
To: 4moreW2004
I don't think a boycott will be necessary.
I have a feeling people will stay away in droves anyway.
I know I'll never watch it.
To: 4moreW2004
MoveOn.org has touted the film as, "The Movie the White House Doesn't Want You to See." They have an inflated sense of their own importance. I hardly think the White House gives a rip whether anyone sees a dumb movie.

I stopped going to movies when it started costing more the soda, popcorn and candy, than the actual movie ticket...and I won't be going back when the movie ticket starts costing more than the food items.
Buy the DVD...its cheaper.
