The books and movie are about kids who kill God so they can do what they want. Nicole Kidman is starring in the movie. It is a blatant atheist attemp to get kids to reject God.

It is true. If you look on the website it is listed as "true". I looked on snopes for myself to see if it was true or urban legend.

well that article is posted in an Urban legend site, so is it true?
I wont join a boycott for the same reason they don't do a boycott when a violent movie is release example: Alpha Dog (kids using drugs and killing innocent people),
It's like when they say there is sexual content in some of the Disney movies, will you boycott those movies?
If you give a theological perspective to all the things in live; everything will be a sin.

Well, it must be true if it was on a website!
Why would you boycott this movie just because it is anti-religion? Are atheists not allowed to have their opinions expressed in the arts as well?
I can assume you'll use the argument "well this is geared towards kids and thats unethical." Well what makes sunday school any better? Sunday school is far worse. They are indoctrinating children and forcing them to only see one perspective, not letting their mature minds choose for themselves.
All this movies does is pose a different perspective and maybe let a kid think for themselves instead of never being shown that it could be possible that god doesn't exist.
If it were all up to people like you, no one would be able to think for themselves.

Nope... I read the books and absolutely loved them. I can't wait to see the film.
Why shouldn't kids be allowed to read books written by an atheist anyway.

Maybe, but I do plan on boycotting the Harry Potter movies because of Dumbledore's revealed homosexuality.
