If you don't support the MPAA, then why would you see this movie?
You could justify it, I suppose, if you made a donation to some group opposed to it equal to the ticket price, but otherwise it looks like just doing whateve is convenient at the time.
Enthusiasm is very good, but it shouldn't be an end in itself. I find myself unable to fit seeing this, or any Hollywood based movie, into my ethical standards. I would find it even harder to fit paying to see it into my standards, though were I to see it, practicality would probably ensure that I paid.
That said, there is, perhaps, one theater that I might consider seeing it at. In this theater the owner uses one of the billboards to place political statements that I normally agree with, and have never seriously disagreed with. (Also, there was an attempt to drive him out of business a couple of years ago by refusing him access to first run movies, though they seem to have given up on that.) The balence might tilt in favor of seeing it there. But I'm dubious. (I won't know in actuality until a chance occurs.)
I think we've pushed this "anyone can grow up to be president" thing too far.
