Could be a calculated act
After soaking this all in for a day, I think it is obvious that this is part of Expelled’s “baiting” of the Darwinist establishment. Just look at how quickly P-Zed took the bait for the private screening and the conference call. Same with Dawkins. Now XVIVO has taken the bait.
This is all one big marketing strategy by Expelled, and it has worked spectacularly. [2]
Response to the film as an illustration of the film's point
Those trying to stop this film accused its producers of fraudulence in obtaining interviews, hypocrisy, plagiarism, and copyright infringement. They have attacked the issuers of license for music used, “informed” Harvard about the video, threatened legal action, advocated sneaking in, advocated bootlegging the film, written to try to dissuade theatres from showing it, etc. I kept having visions of roadblocks set up to inspect the tire-pressure and tail lights of the trucks transporting the film to theatres.

Copyright violations to make a point are still copyright violations
It may be part of a "stellar marketing strategy!" by Premise Media, but it's still copyright infringement. Especially "Imagine," which I know was without Ono's permission. Sometimes the truth is ugly, Ed, but lo! it will set you free.-Chimera1 14:56, 23 April 2008 (EDT)
