freepers buying tickets for shrek 2 and sneaking into F-911

[rainy]

This is what my hair dresser said yesterday when I asked another, whom I remembered didn't like Bush, if she was going to see F-911. She answered loudly "no way, I wouldn't support that scum for anything." Then of course the others heard and said "what what" and the discussion began. I only stated that I like Moore and planned on seeing the movie. My hair dresser said "why? He is such a liar. Lots of us are buying tickets to Shrek and sneaking in to see what f-911 is all about."

I wonder if Shrek ticket sales will go up.

[Walt Starr]

1. Hmmm, that makes them LIARS

not to mention THIEVES!

[tigereye]

5. why would they do that?

Why don't they just see the Moore movie if they want to know what it is all about?

[Killarney]

7. they don't want Moore to get their money

so they buy a ticket to Shrek so F911's numbers don't go up.

[Walt Starr]

8. Because, it is in their nature to be LIARS and THIEVES

They LIE when they say they want a Shrek ticket and the THIEVE when they sneak into F/911.

[tigereye]

15. they just make more publicity for him

boy are they dumb...

[AntiCoup2K4]

10. So Freepers are Thieves and Liars? Hmmmm.....

Yeah, why not.....

thieves, thieves and liars, murderers
hypocrites and bastards

hey thanks for nothing!
morals in the dust
two-faced bastards and syncophants
no trust

thieves! liar!
inside, outside, which side, you don't know
my side, your side, their side, we don't know
which side are they? which side are they?
which side of their mouth do you suppose that it came?
which side are they? which side are they?
which side of the grass is greener?
inside, outside, which side, you don't know
my side, your side, their side, we don't know

you're like a great big fucking gun,
just waiting to get squeezed!

breathe, forfeit erection!
toxical injection
geriatric fuck-fest
we still believe in lies

thieves! liar!
inside, outside, which side, you don't know
my side, your side, their side, we don't know
who started it? who started it?
which side are they? which side are they?
which side of their mouth do you suppose that it came?
which side are they? which side are they?
which side of the grass is greener?
inside, outside, which side, you don't know
my side, your side, their side, no one knows

you're like a great big hit of acid,
waiting to be taken!

44. cool song

I've been listening to that song a lot lately. Perect tune for our current times.

[wryter2000]

2. Sneaking in

I guess that's what they call American values. :P

[SoCalDem]

51. Freep polls..and now Freep movies :)

sounds appropriate for them :)

[DrWeird]

3. Good.

They'll get an education whether they do it honestly or not.

[Vickers]

25. Excellent point

Maybe they might see their McSiahLite has some....explaining to do.

[K8-EEE]

32. Let Them Face Shrub In Action On 9/11

Usually they won't LOOK at him being an idiot -- they like their Shrub footage Hannitized!

[Killarney]

4. O'Reilly said to do that yesterday

on his radio show. He called it the metroplex ramba or something like that. He said to buy a ticket for Dawn of the Dead and then sneak into F911. (of course, he's so clueless Dawn of the Dead isn't in theaters right now). Then, of course, he said that he wasn't telling people to do that, just that he knows that people DO do that. (but yet getting that idea out there, right Bill?)

Asswipe.

[okieinpain]

49. yeah he was doing that crap the other day with podesta.

"hey I didn't say Moore was a propagandist like Goebbels. I said that Moore was a propagandist, and Goebbels was a propagandist too. but hey I'm not a lier."

no spin zone my ass.

[amber dog democrat]

Well the good news is that they are at least seeing it.

If it does not change partisan perceptions of reality, even so, at least it will make them all the angrier. And I doube very much a rabid Bush partisan would sit through the whole thing.... it would be a big waste of time, for them.

[Heyo]

6. Hmmm....

I have to admit guilt of the same thing...

I download Dead Prez music to bump in my car... but will never pay for their stuff because I don't like ther politics...

:P

Heyo

[prodigal_green]

9. I don't know about theaters near you

but around here, there is usually a second ticket person at the entrance to the actual theater double-checking that you are entering the same theater as indicated on your ticket when movies are sold out.

Yes, they are theives, but on the other hand, maybe they'll have their eyes opened. Michael Moore didn't make any of the historical footage up.

[redqueen]

11. CALL THEATERS AND WARN THEM

Underage teens could purchase a ticket for Shrek and sneak in... this must be STOPPED.

Plus, Mike will be shorted his due when the receipts come in.

CALL THE THEATERS!!!!!

Remind them how much trouble they'll be in if some parent finds out their kid saw a beheading because they saw the movie with a Shrek ticket.

Oh yeah and call everyone involved with Bill O' Stupidass and let them know he's encouraging FRAUD and giving teens an idea how to get around ratings!!!!

[jackstraw45]

12. People need to SEE the film

Why would you call the theater and ask them to PREVENT people from seeing this film? I do NOT advocate sneaking into movies but let's not give the enemy ammunition.

The movie only cost $6 million. It will make that by Monday and then some.

People need to see the film...please don't encourage theaters to prevent people, even freepers, from seeing it. You never know - the theater might just drop the film due to "security reasons."

[Virginian]

18. I just paid 9.50 each for tickets to a movie that could sell out.

The movie is at 7:30 tonight. It could sell out by then. If freepers are sneeking in, they could be taking seats away from paying customers.

[jackstraw45]

33. Never been to a sold out movie

where the theater didn't check tickets as people walked in....

In my personal experience.

And I'd hope that any severely underage kids wouldn't be in the theater without a parent. If they were, I'd hope someone would alert the theater.

But if a freeper is too embarassed to buy a ticket, I'd rather them still see the film. Only my opinion of course....

[Virginian]

50. In this 14 theatre complex,

there is usually a ticket taker for each 7 theatre wing. Tonight, the ticket taker was at the door of the theatre.
We got there 45 minutes early to make sure we could sit together. We were not the first people there.

[redqueen]

19. I disagree

This could be very bad. For theater managers especially. They deserve fair warning because a parent who doesn't want their kid to see this would be hopping mad if they found out it happened behind their back.

I want people to see the film, but I don't want people's children seeing it without their permission. That's completely unacceptable IMO.

[Junkdrawer]

13. If the showing is Sold Out, does that mean legitimate ticket holders...

will lose their seats?

[kcwayne]

14. Don't theaters pay a flat fee for the right to show the movie?

I am not positive about this, but I thought they just pay a one-time fee for the number of days they are going to show the film, and don't pay based on the number of people that buy tickets.

[MUSTANG_2004]

37. No, the studio gets paid per ticket

At the theater I'm familiar with, the theater just gets a (small) piece of the ticket sales. They make their money from concession stand sales, not ticket sales.

[MadAsHell]

16. Someone needs to let it slip that ...

Mike Meyers (the voice of Shrek) made kind of a big deal of going to US opening of F911, just to see how that twists their little brains.

[AussieInCA]

17. Just another example of how gutless & unethical freepers are

[PartyPooper]

20. YOU NEED A NEW HAIRDRESSER!

Why support a Freeper?!?

[NanBo]

24. New hairdresser indeed!

I have to agree--you need a new hairdresser :) What kind of hairdresser says something this stupid to their customer!!!

[newyawker99]

34. Hi NanBo!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[NanBo]

38. Thanks and

Hi To you Too:)

[Nikki Stone 1]

47. A REALLY GOOD HAIRDRESSER IS HARD TO FIND

:)

Seriously. There are so many bad ones out there.

[LuminousX]

48. And since you are going to get your haircut

not develop policy. Everyone is allowed to have their opinion. Unless she grossly offends you, I see nothing wrong with it.

I support many Freeper types because they are good at what they do, not because I agree with their politics. That's life. I don't believe in forcing everyone to think MY way.

[Catfight]

21. They won't find seats...maybe the theater needs to check the tickets then

when you go into the theater?

[LizW]

29. Last time I went to a movie, they checked

our tickets at the lobby entrance, AND at the entrance to the individual theater. That was the opening weekend of Harry Potter, and all the showings were sold out.

[ChickMagic]

22. I just called the multiplexes in Dallas

They were all very grateful for the warning. Especially the last woman I spoke with - and she sounded like she'd already been put through the wringer. They all said that they have extra security with a guard posted at the door looking for theatre jumpers.

Mission accomplished!

[AspenRose]

26. Love the Puss In Boots avatar

I see those traditional family values of theft and dishonesty are working their magic again, this time in the movie theaters.

But I agree, some of these people NEED to see the movie.

Others, however, are beyond help or convincing.

[ChickMagic]

27. Thank you! I love it too!

I agree, they need to see it, but they probably want to get in to disrupt the showing.

They have Manson Family Values.

[Ishoutandscream]

39. You're right. Just attended at the AMC theatre in Mesquite

A person was checking tickets, and a police officer sat in the back of the theatre. They must have heard you.

[ChickMagic]

23. sorry - weird dupe

[leesa]

28. Who cares, as long as they see it. This movie will do great financially

so if they are too cowardly to be honest, who cares? They will be furious, but the seeds of doubt will be planted.

[ArkDem]

30. Must be working

[KurtNYC]

31. You should remind them that Shrek is a donkey

so if they go and are forced to see the movie they paid for they may start liking the whole Donkey motif. Or if they do get into F911 they will get to see Bush admitting that "his base" is "elite." Or Bush listening to pet goat stories for 7 minutes. I think they should see it regardless. It doesn't matter how much they think the "hate" Moore -- the clips compiled in F911 are real and they will strain their pointed little heads trying to make peace with many of the clips.

[TrogL]

35. Shrek is an ogre

[proud patriot]

36. Shrek is Not a Donkey ...Donkey is a donkey

:crazy: shrek is an ogre

[LTR]

40. Just don't tell them...

..."Shrek 2" is distributed by Dreamworks, the most liberal film company in Hollywood.

[Loonman]

41. A freeper reports---------like the deranged loon he is......

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1160248/posts?page=33#33

DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THEM.

4. The way Satan is said to lie is to mix truth with untruth, thereby confusing his victim. Michael Moore understands this very well. He does implicate Saudi Arabia as an enemy of America, but then goes on to link President Bush to the Saudis and paints the President as an enemy of America as well.

5. I found it curious that before the movie projector was put on, the sound systen was playing songs about Cuba and Havana. It was just sort of freaky.

6. President Bush is portrayed as a bumbling fool who can't think for himself, and is controlled by his presumed puppet masters, the Saudis and the "super-rich elite."

7. People lacking the skill of critical thought, who go to the movies and believe everything they see, are going to view President Bush as the anti-Christ by the end of the film.

To sum up, it was UGLY.

[redqueen]

42. 'songs about Cuba and Havana'

:wtf:

[Loonman]

46. I like the Satan reference

Boy are they weird. Scary, too.

[Swamp Rat]

45. Ha! They're scared!

I agree "it was UGLY," but so is EVERYTHING in Freeperland. Their sacred cow is being slaughtered before their eyes and they can't stop it.

"People lacking the skill of critical thought, who go to the movies and believe everything they see..." Ha ha ha! That's rich coming from a Freeper! Talk about deranged loon...

Actually, I hope he's right in a way. I hope all those with poor critical thinking skills WILL go to the movie and just BELIEVE. Then Bush will be toast made in his own toaster.

[Nikki Stone 1]

43. Rainy, it sounds like you and I have the same hairdresser!

Mine is so damned talented that I can't bear to leave her. But she is a FAUX fan.

Sigh.
