    Well Striker, I hate to tell you this, but the type of response you are getting is related to the way you made your post, and the way you reply back to people.

    I simply posted my thoughts on why most people are not likely to watch this video. In short, I was attempting to give you some insight so that you could get what you wanted [People to watch the video]. You chose to interpret this as a put-down, despite pointing out that, with a full description, I would be willing to click on the link.

    You could have saved this topic by doing as a few had asked, and giving a description. By first describing what the movie is about, you will avoid most negative feedback for one simple reason: People who are NOT interested in the topic will NOT click on it, thus avoiding their "bad comments."

    There is also the small part about people feeling you have wasted their time by telling them it's important, and they disagree with you.

    Had you given a vivid description, people who are interested in the topic would have clicked on it. Thus you're more likely to get positive feedback from people who are like-minded.

    .

    Your replies do raise one question though, Striker. You said that you posted this at ten different sites. This type of activity always raises an eyebrow, and makes it fairly obvious why you chose not to take the time to give an accurate synopsis.

    I am happy that you found something that you believe in, but the problem with some believers is that they are always trying to impose themselves on others. Usually the way they handle themselves in this regard determines the public reaction, once again going back to the first sentence of this post.

    Thanks,
    Priest
