Looks like an interesting film. I think it's being marketed well . . .

Comments from slashdot.org:

"Painting the current scientific community as just as bad as the Spanish Inquisition, an extended trailer of Ben Stein's "Expelled" has a lot of people (at least that I know) talking. It looks like his movie plans to encourage people to speak out if they believe intelligent design or creationism to be correct. In the trailer he even warns you that if you are a scientist you may lose your job by watching 'Expelled.' Backlash to the movie has started popping up and this may force the creationism/evolutionist debate to a whole new level across the big screen and the internet."

adholden points out a site called Expelled Exposed, which asserts that

'Expelled' "is simply an anti-science propaganda film aimed at creating controversy where none exists, while promoting poor science education that can and will severely handicap American students."

I think Ben Steins's argument is valid and could be applied to many different areas not just Intelligent Design such as Global Warming/Cimate Change. I think it's important to question the doctrine of the science and University community and to see if they themselves are living up to their own standards.
