Has anyone else seen this movie? My family went to see it last evening and found it very enlightening. The most shocking thing was how people who didn't even want to take sides, just discuss evolution vs. intelligent design, are treated so horribly! I though it was bad, but I never realized it was *that* bad. It is sad how our freedoms are beeing taken away without us even paying attention. Sad

Overall, I found it a well-done, though-provoking movie (though some of the shaky camera work was distracting, to say the least). Anyone else's thoughts?

hmm, is that in the theaters? Sounds good. Should I go see it?

My wife and I are going on a date tonight to see it . . . in your hometown theater Mitchell. I will give a review when I see it. Better see it soon if you want to go in the theaters.

Excellent movie. I am surprised it made it to the Bay Area. Beautiful. I am trying to convince all my friends to see it. With this, the Creation Museum, and all of the Answers in Genesis business, we will be heard in the science realm. The walls shall fall!

Yes, do try to get as many people out as possible to see this movie! I'll try to find the article, but I know someone is sueing Ben Stein for using their song. Also, the evolutionist they interviewed a lot (can't remember his name right now), is mad because he says he didn't know Mr. Stein was a creationist or something like that. Rolling Eyes

Will Expelled be Expelled from Theaters?

I'll just quote it here:

The Movie "EXPELLED" (http://www.getexpelled.com/) opened last weekend
at 1,000 theaters nation wide and brought in $3.2 million. It finished
fifth overall in per-theater earnings, according to Box Office Mojo.
It ranked in the top 10 for box office receipts for an opening movie.
See Citizen Link article at
http://www.citizenlink.org/CLtopstories/A000007198.cfm .

Another measure of success is the "road rage" being expressed by ardent
promoters of a materialist / atheistic / naturalistic world view.
Clearly this movie is striking a nerve. Bitter hatred of the message
of this movie is coming in from various sources (see
http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/080416/law073.html?.v=101). This situation
has become so extreme that Ben Stein's movie is now in danger of
being "EXPELLED" from theaters. For example, EXPELLED is being sued by
YOKO ONO – and she's demanding that it be booted from theaters ASAP.
(see CNN article at
http://www.cnn.com/2008/SHOWBIZ/Music/04/24/people.yoko.ono.ap/index.html)

Yes it will probably be on DVD after a year and it will probably be cheaper
to see it that way. However remember that "Money Talks". Perhaps the
best way to voice your support for the mission of this movie is to
shell out a few extra bucks and see it in a real theater as soon as you
are able.

I thought it was pretty good.
