Be Careful What Movies You See and Where

Cinemark theatre chain CEO Alan Stock shelled out $9,999 to pass Prop. 8 in California, but will his theatre chain profit from ticket sales for the forthcoming release of Milk. Not if a group of people on the web have anything to say about it.
NoMilkforCinemark.com is dedicated to convincing ticket buyers to see Milk at a competitor’s theatre. The idea is that if the gay community agrees to buy tickets to see the movie somewhere else, Cinemark will lose revenue from what promises to be one of the most profitable pictures of the holiday season.
California’s Briggs initiative, which would have resulted in the firing of gay and lesbian teachers throughout the state, plays a prominent role in the film.
But LGBT movie goers are faced with another tough decision this holiday season. Twilight, based on the bestselling novel by Stephanie Meyer, opened in theatres this weekend. And, if Meyer is to be believed, 10% of all monies she makes off the movie will go to the Mormon church.
Meyer has made no public statement regarding her feelings on Prop. 8.
