:I think that, at least on my crew's part, a lot of the reaction was just due to exhaustion. I thought it was amusing, and I think it was totally obvious that the filmmakers were not trying to seriously rip-off Clerks or whatever everybody was up in arms about. It was cute and funny, and not very far off from how obsessed I bet a lot of us freaks are. It was just late and we were cranky, and I think a lot of people put Kevin so high up on a pedestal that they don't take kindly to anyone spoofing his work and/or their reaction to it. And if there is one thing I think we all learned this weekend, it is that the VA crew are just a bunch of regular guys.
That's all I have to say about that...

Most people who actually bothered to watch this at the end of Vthon have said that they disliked it, and I've heard that this is much to the annoyance of those who gave these guys a slot to show it to us. I don't get this, since I thought it was very clever, funny and definitely well put together(I was convinced it was real until about half way through), so I'd just like to let you guys know that it wasn't wasted time.
