Liberals love parity. The U.S. is just as bad as the Soviet Union. Israel is just as bad as the Muslim terrorists. "The Passion" and "Farenheit 911" are equivalent.
In the first place, "The Passion" was #3, and "Farenheit 911" was #15. What was the reason for headlining these two movies in particular and "taking them out"? "The Passion" made three times as much money as "Farenheit 911," in spite of the fact that the MSM virulently attacked it and gave Moore's film unprecedented publicity.
Finally, "The Passion" was a brilliant movie, artistically, while F911 was a piece of turgid cr*p.
F/9-11 is a joke in more ways than one. They consider it a documentary, so it is worthy of acclaim because it surpassed other "documentaries" in box office. The rest of us know it is fictional propaganda. 119 may seem like a lot based on budget, but it barely deserves notice when compared to the film that is it's natural competitor, "The Day after Tomorrow".
The real note of attention is that of films supposed to rake in a lot of money, only two surpassed TPOTC and one only barely. Considering TPOTC was spoken in a foreign (dead) language and concentrates on material that is neither entertaining nor humorous, was made on low budget against numerous obstacles that stood in the way of distribution and advertising, TPOTC is THE story of the year. F/9-11 is the Leftists poor substitute of a religion that will be lucky to be remembered as a footnote a hundred years from now.
The only film I went to the theaters to watch this year was TPOTC, and I went more than once. I've seen Spiderman II on DVD. That's it. It's partially due to politics in some instances, partially that the films they make aren't worth a dime of my paycheck. I'd rather check out an old classic.
