and surprise surprise they misrepresented his objection to model wrongfully categorized his showing as $20 rip off movie showing to be a complaint about his fans.
read thru the blogs
watch his sundance speach

I'm not reading through shit. I have better things to do. You claimed that he was complaining about having to waste a bunch of money to put on these showings so that his movie could qualify for the Oscars and you linked to an article as your "proof" of this. I read the article and there is no complaining in it and now it is my fault that I didn't read a dozen blogs and dig deep to find the once sentence that supports your narrative?
I don't really give a shit how he sold his tickets. I like the guy and am a fan of his movies and I'm glad this was a success for him no matter how it happened. If it was through his podcast, great. If it was because he was famous and got a lot of press about this tour great. None of this really matters to me.
