Just saw interview with local movie theater owner re F911
Right here in good old Memphis (the buckle of the Bible Belt), the Malco Theaters just said that their weekend attendance was better than expected and they are going to be showing F911 in at least three more theaters come this weekend. Currently they have it on five screens.

BTW I saw it last night and it made me even angrier than I already was. I did not think this was possible. For a Sunday night showing the attendance was very good I would say about 80% full.

4. I live in Charlotte
which is a very conservative place. I went to a 1:30 on a Sunday and 2 theaters were completely full. People laughed, clapped, cried. There was a police officer posted by the door on the way out. Don't know if they had received a threat or what. Should have asked him.
