Republican-Conservative Women, bless their brillient and beautiful hearts and minds. Republican guys don't have to make a choice between loving a woman for her beauty or for her brain-Conservative damsels come equipped with both.

Sometimes I feel pity for liberals-but it soon passes.

Thank you for the link. Only one theatre in Alabama (Rave in Montgomery) will be showing it so far. I think I'll make a few phone calls.

I am surprised that so many theaters in Orange County Calif are showing it. OC use to be pretty conservative. Many of the young people serving in Iraq come from here. The families I know who have relatives serving would not see this movie. I hope it bombs financially. Theaters won't give screen time if they can't make any money. It's all about $$$$$$$ for them.

I would like to think it was because some theater owners have morals, but the reality is it's probably a financial decision . Why devote a screen to Farenheit 911 that will have 15 viewers when that same screen with Spiderman or Harry Potter or whatever will have 10 or more times that many viewers.

I wondered if it might also be that there is a Farenheit 451 movie coming out late this year or next and maybe the studio was leaning on some chains (that kind of stuff goes on).

Thanks for the list, I actually found none art theaters in Tucson showing it. I registered my disappointment with them. I'm not much of a boycotting kind of guy but I'll give a shot once for fun.

>>only one theatre in San Jose is listed (and San Jose is very liberal)

It is? I think it is pretty evenly split, or perhaps 60/40, but no one near as liberal as say San Francsico or Santa Cruz.

That was great. I will have to take all my cousins to it as a response to my aunt a few years ago taking them all to Bowling for Columbine.

As a quick side note in the trailer Moore mentions he's only in movies he directs and then the movies are listed which he is in.

They missed EdTV...Imagine my disgust when I was just laying on the couch and saw his big ugly puss.

It would be interesting to track the profits, similar to the way some freepers did with the Passion of the Christ....
That's the best way to see how successful it is .

Here's the link to theaters showing F911: http://www.f911tix.com

Cool, not one theater in West Virginia is currently showing the film!

The remark was intended on the general dearth of mature, intelligent, and attractive conservative women in my general area, not a self-deprecating shot at my sex life...but seeing as how I am only 20 and still in school, I have the rest of my life to meet these women. (sigh...)

Hint, you can often meet them at church.

Sadly the big theater here in my city (Mountain View, CA) is showing it.

I need to move to Idaho or someplace.

Cinemark really seems to be the company we need to go after here. They are showing it in 50% of the theaters.

"Though the liberal ones seem to be looser..."

many women mistake mens' interest in them to be that of admiring their intelligence...

You should also send your relatives the real truth behind that "documentary" they were subjected to....

17-pages of truth about Bowling for Columbine from former Interior Department attorney David Hardy
www.hardylaw.net/Truth_About_Bowling.html


Richard Bushnell has put together a well-documented site that takes you through the inaccuracies in Bowling for Columbine. Check it out!

It seems like this trash is just being shown in pro-left areas in the states that are even showing it. For example, while this liberal piece of dung is being shown in liberal Atlanta and Decatur in Georgia, it's not being shown in conservative Cobb county. I guess it makes sense since there wouldn't be much interest in seeing it.

The states that are spared are Delaware, Idaho, Mississippi, Montana, South Dakota, West Virginia, and Wyoming

You can only see it in one theater in Alaska, North Dakota, Wisconsin, Alabama, Hawaii, and Utah.

My heart bleeds at Lion Gates' poor distribution.
