maybe this was presented to you in a bad way

here's the deal ...


most people are happy to see filmmakers come into the forum and let us know what they're up to ...

its just that MANY people came come in here and either pretended to be asking information about a film (yet providing links and details) or other ruses that become insulting after a while. once or twice is no big thing but after so many it is natural to feel that it's an insult to the intelligence.

but i must say - after your last email ... you're calling criticizing forum folk elitists, while out of the other side of your mouth acting like an elitist because you make movies.


so you make movies - great for you ... i work in IT. looks like we both made a choice.

the difference is that unless you want to make movies for just other filmmakers ... which would seem more like a circle jerk than a career - then you need the people who care enough about movies (let alone indie horror films) to participate of a forum about it.

we'll always find other films to watch - we're the audience ... i think you need us a fuckload more than we need you.

thats the bitter reality.

sorry to come off strong but no offence to your self proclaimed lack of origionality - it is often the thing people like yourself shoot back back with and i think its a horrible arguement.


try to understand that everyone doesnt want to be a movie maker or directer,,etc.

yeah - its great that its what you do ... more power to you if you're happy doing it .. but dont look down on people who dont make movies and expect them not to have a voice.



anyway - there's always time to clean the slate and start fresh.
it's happened before - some folks even stayed as contributers.

and we have at least 2 people in the business here and they'll be just as hard on you if not worse as the origional guy who give you grief.
