G.O.M.A.B.

My two cents: This is total hypocrisy on the behalf of the democrats. Where were they when Farenheit 9/11 was being shown in theaters???

don't know about you, but i'm much more likely to watch something i don't have to pay for as oppose to something i do i think that's the point imagine if "Fahrenheit 9/11" had've been on like MSNBC, ABC, or something to that extent....the amount of people who will have viewed the movie would at LEAST double... the least they could do is put it in the theaters like "Fahrenheit" & give equal exposure.... but of course that would mean the Bush camp having to be fair, and since they know of no such thing....yeah, well anyway - guess we'll be seeing the movie on regular tv soon :arrow:

*rubs chin* Fahrenheit 9/11....on cable...for all the world to see... if you edit out the more gruesome details I think you could probably request that it be shown somewhere. Hell, Id call Moore personally (talk to my uncle who knows f*cking everyone) and tell him to get that sh*t on cable but the likelihood is very low because of the general eye over the cable industry isnt a democratic one.

yep, you're right about that one... even if they did edit out the more "gruesome details" and whatnot - you could clean that bad boy up beyond BELIEF - and i BET you it still would have never been able to make it to television...well at least, not the FCC-regulated channels... i mean, they were struggling as it was to get a PG-13 rating so that a more broad audience could view the dag on movie in the theaters...and couldn't even accomplish that...the R rating was set in stone... and i've seen some far worse movies (in terms of criteria for the ratings) rated PG-13 that really could've been rated R.... so yeah...I think the likeliness of him getting it to FCC stations would've been slim-to-none....HBO, Showtime, & all of those other non-FCC stations would've been different...but then again, a much smaller audience would have been exposed to it at that point... there were even some movie theaters that weren't willing to show the film at their business!
