For those of you planning on giving us a play by play commentary tonight
You will be doing nothing but giving this fantasy movie more attention that it does not deserve. Monopolizing this board with thread after thread of crap about a movie that is likely to be forgotten by next week,. Don't feed the trolls. Watch something else, spend some time with your family, or take care of personal or professional business.

So while you peanut gallery types (and you know who you are) are making blow by blow, scene by scene, line by line commentary as the movie progresses, I'll be tending to some work I have to do for this week, away from DU.

4. Not to worry....Rightwing docu-porn isn't my cup of tea....Hopefully most
here will ignore the trash.

I do look forward to the defamation lawsuits that are coming and ABC/Disney's comeuppance. Serves the bastards right.

8. I am going to be looking for every inaccuracy

24. Ditto. I plan to exploit this stupid RW mistake to the hilt.
Maybe we can try having one "official" thread so the board won't get spammed up.

32. Excellent idea! One OFFICIAL CRITICS thread, to contain commentary...
and make it easier for those interested to find the discussion. Someone should alert the mods or administration to this idea & get the topic set up, right now!

I was wishing that would have been done for all of these dulpicate posts on the boycott & exposure of who is behind "The Path", as Earl G attempted with his post. His pertinent info dropped way too fast!

26. yes, like I said when this was posted last night...
How can you correct the sheeple who gather around the water cooler the next morning if you don't know what you are talking about?

29. I want to see part of it to see if some coworkers are in it.
Edited on Sun Sep-10-06 03:25 PM by NYC
Beyond that, I know I won't be able to watch the whole thing. Please report on what you watch. Thanks in advance.

P.S. What time does it start in New York?

16. I hope administration will set up official threads
and the mods will be on top of it and combine all the loose ends into the major threads.

They'll be easy to avoid, then.

18. I would prefer a play by play on DU to watching the piece 'o shit...
I'm close to the boiling point watching the chimp-lickers defending this thing, making comparisons to F/911 etc.

I might explode it I tried to watch the actual crapudrama.

19. amen
I didn't know even that it was on tonight.

Why would anyone want to spend hours watching what they know are lies?

I don't intend to do that. I don't intend to intentionally piss myself off. That will come tomorrow when the dittoheads talk about it at work.

21. I respectfully disagree...

I don't mean this as a flame, but why shouldn't the topic of the day be all over the boards? What is more important than a 4 hour smear on WJC, his administration and Democrats in general? I admit there is definitely overkill, but that happens with any hot topic on this board. After this movie airs, we can't afford to let it be forgotten, because that will mean a huge part of the audience now believes this version of the story. That is an outrage!

I don't feel that this is "just a movie." This bit of shameless propaganda is the best way to get to the people who are dependent on and trusting of the MSM, who believe anything they see on TV, especially from the "wholesome" Disney folks. The timing of this "movie" is meant to sway the upcoming elections, or at least provide some backstory to the requisite believability when the black boxes do their bit.

The only thing that makes this less than horrifying is the hope that the whole fabric of lies and greed wrapped up in G*d and flag is starting to unravel. In order to further that, I think the more talk, the more pressure brought to bear on this travesty, the better. I just don't see how doing anything but
jumping up and down in collective outrage (and making ourselves heard) is justified in this situation.

25. Well thank God for dogday then
In order to fight the lies, we need to know the lies.

I can't even watch press conferences anymore, tried just to listen and even that doesn't help. So I'll applaud anyone here willing to sit through that shit to give us info.

27. It'd be OK if they'd restrict it to a single thread or three...
...but it seems everyone has to post a new thread on this shit. I haven't been able to look at GD once in the last week without having to ignore at least two redundant threads about this crap.

30. No reason to watch it
There is enough online written about it already to make me run like I am on fire. Wouldn't watch it if you paid me. Going to watch dvd. Watching it will only make you madder that THEY get away with all this stuff.
