I loved your movie! People in Redmond, WA (home of Microsoft) loved the movie. I saw the sneak peak in Redmond, WA, I work very close to Microsoft and even closer to the X-box developers base of operation. When I saw in Redmond, the house was packed with fans. A lot of the fans seemed to look very similar to Kevin Smith (Short Box-figured guys with facial hair and glasses). But many fans indeed, and everyone was rolling at that showing. Then when I saw it on opening day in Downtown Seattle (where I live), the place wasn't very packed and the laughs were nothing like Redmonds place. I found myself the only one laughing at times. I may have been one of the only people in the Seattle showing that was viewaskew fan. Anyways, sorry Kevin, Seattle people can be a little yuppy when comes to Eastcoast filmmakers. Now, if there was a movie made similar with Seattle roots, you'd get a much difference response. Damn bias pricks! Ya, I'll say it, I'm from here and I sometimes think Seattle folks act a little too cocky and upity when it comes to films. So what if Seattle is one of the big meccas of Independant Film Festivals, big fucking deal....
