In an attempt to drag this thread back on topic - I noticed in one of the earlier posts that comments were being made regarding the impact this film will have on the Presidential election.
But among all the enthusiastic speculations, one Senator mentioned that the impact of this film will largely "wear off" by the time November comes around. I'm sure many that have seen the film disagree, but I'm talking about the impact it will have on the conservatives that saw it. One person that was quoted in the article was a wealthy white collar person that said (as he leaned against his Lexus) that he would have to seriously reconsider voting for George Bush in November. That may be the case now, but I really doubt his resolve will last - especially when he remembers the benefits Republican Administrations grant people of his income level.
However, Moore is a smart man. I haven't seen any official announcements, but I would bet a dollar to a donut hole that F 9/11 will be released on DVD and VHS the first week of November. This will give many viewers the chance to "recapture" the doubt they have regarding George Bush after seeing the film. It will also be a chance for many NEW viewers to see the film for the first time - and by timing it just 3-4 weeks before the election, Moore would stand a good chance of swinging some votes with his movie.
That's my prediction regarding F9/11's release anyway. We'll see if it happens or not.
