I didn't know about this movie until I saw this post, so I guess it will be interesting if the movie is well done and has some credibility or not.

The film is certainly science fiction, but as we know all-too-well, the threats of global warming are in fact very real. This is a great opportunity for us to reach tens thousands of the ÒunconvertedÓ and raise some public awareness about the dangers of our oil addiction. Below you will find a call to action from Global Exchange and Rainforest Action Network urging folks to hand out leaflets at the film screenings. Hopefully some of you will want to join us in educating movie goers. Please send the alert far and wide to other people who you will would be interested in leafleting at the movies. Thanks!! Jason Mark Clean Car Campaigner Global Exchange Two Thumbs Down for Climate Destruction Go to the Movies to Stop Global Warming Hollywood Science Fiction a Great Chance to Spread the Facts About Global Warming When: Friday, May 28 Ð Monday, May 31 (or longer) Where: At Your Local Movie Theater What: Distribute Leaflets About the Realities of Climate Chaos and Spur People to Action Why: On Friday, May 28 the blockbuster climate disaster movie ÒThe Day After TomorrowÓ will open in theaters around the world. This is the first major studio film to address the issue of human-driven climate change, and therefore offers an unprecedented opportunity to reach people who are unaware of the threats posed by global warming. By adopting a theater and passing out eye-catching postcards to movie goers, you can help educate thousands of Americans about the realities of global warming and give them ways to contribute to positive change. >From coast to coast we need your help to distribute flyers, get petition signatures, and give moviegoers an opportunity to take action. In addition, we can help you organize after-movie parties and discussion groups the opening week of the film. Although it may take a Hollywood-style weather disaster to spur public concern over climate change, we can use this as a chance to build the movement for a sustainable economy. Already government officials are trying to shut down dialogue. On April 1, NASA employees were sent e-mail message by the agencyÕs top press officer that said, "No one from NASA is to do interviews or otherwise comment on anything having to do with [the film]." We will not be silent. With your help we will spread the word across the country that the impacts of climate change are already wreaking havoc on ecosystems and human communities across the planet, endangering our security, our economy and our health. This does not have to be a ton of workÑbut it can be a ton of fun. ItÕs as easy as getting three or four friends together to go see the film, and then before and after the screening passing out postcards to your fellow movie goers as they enter or leave the auditorium.
