My concern's more along the lines of viewability. Right now, where I live, I know of a dozen people who want to go see the movie, but the thought of having to travel halfway across town is daunting them into reconsidering.

These kind of movies are good for business. An Inconvenient Truth may not have been a blockbuster, but it sold some tickets, which is ESPECIALLY important to the smaller "art house" outlets who can't survive waiting for Kevin Smith's latest. There may be more theaters showing Transformers and The Simpsons (by the way, does anyone else feel like this movie came out of nowhere?) But Michael Moore is good business.
