2. Man.......
This is unreal! I couldn't make it to the showing today, but it is amazing that this film is doing what it is doing. I have been getting shivers all night reading everyone's posts on the film. In one way I feel vindicated for knowing that we were duped all along, and in another way I am saddened that it takes a film like this to open some people's eyes. I just hope it isn't just the people who knew this shit all along seeing the film. Let's hope it spreads.

4. I hope the fence sitters will see it...It could knock them off the fence.

and knock some sense into them. Every vote counts. It could make the difference.

6. That's if they go see it.
But I think a lot of "fence sitters" are getting frustrated. I wish he could have finished this film last year, the DVD would have made great X-mas presents.

7. True, but there was some incredible footage that he couldn't have gotten..
if he didn't release it now. I think there will be a few fence sitters there. A couple who sat next to me never once applauded, but I felt their empathy... and I heard the woman next to me gasp and cry during a couple of heart-rending moments. If there are just even a few fence-sitters that see this film, it will be worth it.

8. I haven't seen it yet
After reading the reviews and what people's reactions were to it...I don't know if I should go. I want to support the film, but we already knew this stuff. I don't know if I want to relive it again. It was painful the first time it all happened, and the thought of sitting through it again kind of gives me the feeling that I don't want to be ill again.
