Some OTHER "big event" will happen to divert attention from it?

And even so, it's generating a huge amount of buzz.
I predict it'll be a grand slam at the box office. It could well be the most-seen film of the summer if the buzz I'm hearing everywhere is any indication.

5. It's in a few theaters sprinkled around the country |
|
as a shot across the bow of the Feds who think they're going to confiscate it and suppress it.
Wide scale release is this Friday.

9. Those are the noises they're making |
|
You see, there is an embargo against Cuba, and unless one is a well connected corporation, one is unable to do business with Cuba.
They're trying to say his movie was filmed in Cuba and can be confiscated under the same law that prevents tobacconists from ordering Cuban cigars.
Yes, it's convoluted. They're Reupblics.

10. Yeah it IS nutz. Moore stashed a copy of the DVD in Canada when the Feds threatened to charge him |
|
for going to Cuba "illegally" seeking treatment for the 9/11 first responders who were volunteers and uninsured.
His defense is that he went as a journalist. His lawyer is David Boise. He'll be all right.

12. When it's released, everyone should call in sick to work to go see it. |
