    From my local newspaper. Daniel Dae-Kim is the narrator of the documentary and Brian Yang (actor on Hawaii 5-O) is one of the producers.

    Who are these random ppl that you are quoting from Twitter. Do any of them carry any sliver of authority? Film critics, work in the industry, bball ppl? Or just random ppl who happened to go to the screenings? If it's the latter, stop - it's all irrelevant anyway.

    If you happen to live in Utah, movie screenings held at Sundance are open to the public on a first come first served basis.. So yeah, critics/general public all crammed into one roof/ I think... Are you saying the general public can't input their opinion on a specific movie because they are not film critics????

    No, I'm saying what the general public says about the movie is irrelevant and not worthy of being quoted on CF.

    Just like after Harden has a good game, I'm not searching for #fearthebeard tags on Twitter and posting random tweets here. I'm looking for what Zach Lowe has to say since he can provide insight.

    The public can input their opinion. But that doesn't mean it carries any weight or worth for US here.

    Public opinions are irrelevant? So what's the point of you being on a forum, which is filled with random people's opinions....

    Isn't that why this forum has "rep" so that certain members' voices are given more weight? As time goes on, members here get to know each other better and at least to some degree "rep" allows us to gauge a specific member's credibility.

    Taking a random sampling of twitter gives a sense of the general public's opinion in a very narrow sample set - but if that's all we're gleaning from it - what is the point of posting every single one? Can't he just say "there's good positive feed-back so far."

    You know, you could have done the research yourself, to see how credible those twitter critics were. It would have only taken 30 seconds to confirm their credibility.

    Is this really what you're complaining about? This is an OT, freaking movie topic, please don't poison it.

    He's excited about the film and posting positive reviews in a thread on the topic. What's wrong with that?

    ?????? You want CF members with rep points to review the movie instead??? That would give the movie credibility???? Are you talking about this movie or just things discussed in general, I'm confused???:confused:

    He tried to say that posters without reps should not be allowed to post on ClutchFans.

    He's nitpicking and probably in a bad mood from the Rockets sucking and using his frustration to post in this thread.. I'd say keep him posted here before he gets angry and take it out on some poor bloke at the bus stop...:grin:
