PABAAH and Michael Moore
Now that Michael Moore has found a distributer, PABAAH (Patriotic Americans Boycotting Anti American Hollywood) is stepping up the pressure to encourage all it's loyal readers (and it has at least one (not counting myself, as I could hardly be called loyal to their goals)) to call theater chains and pressure them not to screen Farenheit 9/11.

Some of you may be wondering, well, what can I do to help get this movie out to the public. I mean whether or not you think Michael Moore is a saint or not, certainly people should have the choice of whether or not they want to see Moore's film.

PABAAH has helpfully provided a list of film distributors addresses and phone numbers if you want to pressure them to now show Michael Moore's film. My advice, let's use this list to call up theater chains and encourage them to show Farenheit 9/11. Here's the list --> http://www.pabaah.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=506

Some of you think it might be nicer of me to post the list here, but I get a wicked little thrill out of encouraging others to use PABAAH's list counter ot their own purposes.

1. Go for it!
It'll only make the movie more popular and more successful at the box-office.

2. You have to sign up
Can you cut and paste the list so we don't have to sully ourselves by signing up?

4. Yep, not that they don't have 30-40 copyright violations on their own site
I wouldn't be stewing in guilt

12. For some of the distributors, this is gold!
Any controversy will increase ticket sales. And distibutors are in this for the money, not political awareness.
