i've only had the chance to watch the first 15 or so minutes today and my whole perspective was forced to alter. went from "gonna support my buddy and watch his movie" to "oh ok this is a movie movie i would be watching anyway"

i really appreciate the kind words. hopefully you enjoy the rest of the movie!

one final plea to anyone who enjoyed the movie to take a second and review it on the amazon page and the IMDb if you can spare a few seconds of time. even critical reviews are welcome! the whole effort has been overrun by illegitimate troll accounts vote-stuffing the IMDb account with 1-star ratings. case in point, our own little huddle adolf hitler admirer CCS/professor chaos popped in to drag it through the mud purely out of spite :eyeroll:

all in all though it's been a resounding success. the exposure we've gotten is above and beyond anything i'd expected. it is incredibly exciting and deeply humbling.

clicking on the profiles of the bad imdb reviewers is a fascinating window into a certain type of person. the one horst dude has like a dozen reviews calling positive reviews on a variety of movies fake. most of them have been imdb members for 15+ years and almost ALL of their reviews are 1 star.

no doubt. the film has garnered three published critical reviews since its release, all three of which have ranked it between a 6 and 7, a very fair assessment and frankly sky-high for an independent film. the 1s are incredibly transparent. lifeless little bastards

Saw this article this morning: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/chadwick-boseman-star-spike-lees-next-movie-netflix-1186145. Looks like you're ahead of the curve, Phil. More movies like this are good for everyone. Having your film pop up in the suggestions for a Spike Lee film could be huge. 

God damn. Another close call Philly ;)

I can help build anything.. Im a weak mind and a strong back.. I was thinking more like holding an BAR and getting shot in the face... or maybe be a Medic and get shot in the face.. my 15 seconds of fame.. lol

Ive watched it twice now.

Solid film dude.  Well done on all fronts.

I could nit pick on some of the technical issues but that would take away from my appreciation of the heart of the film.  Your message in regards to racial hierarchies and the implicit imbalance of power along side of a story of fundamental right and wrong was a well told analog for the problems the country faced then and now.

 

Congrats on all fronts and huzzah for achieving at such an incredible level.

man that is high praise. i really appreciate it.

my next film will have seven times the budget of point man, so i look forward to being able to eliminate the technical issues and smaller scales that come with independent film.

thanks again to everyone who took the time to watch it! @arbnranger you probably recognized a few names in the credits

      I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks.
