>>Help Make Fahrenheit 9/11 a Huge Hit

Given how devastating Michael Moore's new film Fahrenheit 9/11 is to President Bush's carefully crafted facade, it's hardly surprising that right-wing groups who call Moore a "domestic enemy" are using censorship and intimidation tactics to try to get it pulled from theaters. That's why we've got to do everything we can to make the opening a huge success. We're asking people to pledge to see the film on the opening night -- Friday, June 25th. (If you can only make it on Saturday or Sunday, that's OK too.) To pledge, just fill out the form below.


"I will help make the opening weekend of 'Fahrenheit 9/11' a success by seeing the film and recruiting my friends to join me."

We're trying to hit 100,000 pledgers. So far, 89540 (89%) have signed up<<

8. If they can get a theater in this area, I'll go.

I keep checking everyday to see if they've added a cinema on my side of the state, but no go.

9. MM to be on Letterman tonight Friday June 18

At least according to his latest email newsletter I received yesterday.

PS. I am sponsoring a number of benefits around the country next week for local and national peace and justice groups, including Military Families Speak Out and September 11th Families for Peaceful Tomorrows. Please check your local papers and my website next week for further details.

PPS. Also, I am going to be on the “Late Show with David Letterman” on Friday night. It's on CBS at 11:35 PM Eastern and Pacific. And on Monday morning (June 21) I will be on “The Today Show” on NBC. Next week, Jon Stewart and Conan. I'd go on O'Reilly but, like a coward, he walked out on a screening we invited him to (with Al Franken just a few rows away!). I personally caught him sneaking out. Embarrassed, he tried to change the subject. He said, "When are you coming on my show?" and I said, "Turn around and watch the rest of the movie and I will come on your show." He walked out. Fair and balanced.

10. Nice...but isn't that like preaching to the choir?

Although, while none of those pledging will change their vote from Bush to Kerry (because they are all Kerry voters), the early infusion of cash for the movie is wonderful.

I can't wait to hear stories of Bush or uncommitted voters having their minds changed by this film.

11. Choirs singing to the world

Lots of press on opening night. Several protest planned by freeps. A big crowd on opening night will be a huge PR coup and really freak out the freepers.

13. It won't be shown within a thousand miles of my hometown

:-(

[joefree1]

15. Bummer, where's your hometown?

[Bandit]

17. Juneau Alaska

It is being shown in Anchorage only. Juneau is a thousand miles from Anchorage and a thousand miles from Seattle. Actually I'm amazed it is being shown anywhere at all. Alaska is a very conservative and ignorant state.

16. I tried to pledge, but got an error message

Oh well, I am going to see it opening night anywway. I think the actual ticket sales will be more meaningful than moveon.org pledges.

18. Try a different browser, see post #4

19. Don't forget

to wear something blue as the site suggests so people will see moveon's strength. A DU logo somewhere would be cool as well. Can't make it opening night because I have to work, but I will see it over the weekend.

20. Already have my tickets

7:30 pm show, GRAND LAKE THEATRE, Oakland, CA
