    Utah, expect the slopes to be packed, but the theatres to be empty for 2009. 

    This years Sundance Film Festival falls on the same date as the presidential inauguration and has more anti prop 8 peeps fuming.

    Recent major public statement- the openly gay actor, Allan Cummings, said he will be skipping the screening of his own movie.   

    His new flick, ”Dare”,  will be featured at the hate-state festival without his support when news broke that the screening was planned to be in a theater, whose owner had donated $9,900 dollars to support California’s ban on gay marriage, Proposition 8.

    Sundance representatives try to dissuade the upheaval by moving the screening to an alternate theater, but political activist’s argue that it won’t do shiz. 

    The festival still funnels money into the Mormon church- who have been hooking up the hateful Prop 8 from the get-go.

    Allan is the first actor who is ditching the fest. for the presidential inauguration of Barack Obama- “someone who I believe will make America a place where gay people will be respected and given true equality” he told the NY Post.

    We expect more to follow.

    Meanwhile, Sundance reps. are being hypocrites- They tell our sources that people should still support the festival because the films themselves promote diversity.

     Its true- hollywood is liberal. But, MONEY TALKS!
