Bears Post showing

[dhbearguy]

So finally, Bears has come and gone. Thanks to everyone who showed up to see the film. Here are my thoughts!

1. The title should not be "Bears"! The film does not portray the bear community. Another whole documentary on bears could easily be done.

2. The film did not really convey my opinion towards Scott Hunter. I was dissappointed with him for not getting to know any of the contestants. Good for him for campaigning like he did. Bad for him for not being a part of all of us.

3. I do not know my way around a paddle. Thanks gregorbehr for taking the last 2 whaks at the other guy for me that day. BTW, from the paddle scene, it did not seem that bad, but you didn't see the 2nd hit that had me on my knees in so much pain. Many bingo players were very offended by what happned that day. It was a very bad experience for me and they contestants were there for me with love and support.

4. I felt so bad about Pete hurting himself. When I said "One Down" I did not know the extent of Pete's fall. I felt so horrible that he hurt himself and dropped out. But I don't even remember saying that line, even after I had found out how bad he hurt his foot.

5. I told you I can dance! Now come join me sometime. http://www.sundancesaloon.org

6. The ending scene frekin cracks me up. It is so taken out of context, but I don't care. It is halarious.

Hope you had fun.

Hugs!

I tried to take a photo of me on the screen with my phone, but I had to turn my screen off because I didn't want to distract anyone. Alas, not being able to see what you are doing made it not happen.

They could call it "Glamour Bears" or "Showgirls II".

How INTERESTING you were behind Pete when he fell. Did they ever find who placed the marbles on the steps? ;)

Now you know how all those reality TV people must feel from evil editing.

*SMOOCH*

I was not behind him. But yeah, the marbles could have come from anyone...

You were very restrained over that paddle incident. If dickwad had hit me as hard as he hit you, I would have had great difficulty refraining from turning around and punching him. It's supposed to be fun!

Thanks for inviting me

It was awesome to see the film and get your perspective behind what happened. It did remind me a little of "America's Next Top Model" a bit.

The paddle scene was just a horrible thing and abusive. I am glad that the other bears in the competition stuck with you. It is no surprise that you were a galvinizing force in the competition.

i hope the film gets a wider release so that those of us no longer in SF get to see it! :-)

Since one of the featured guys is from Seattle, I am sure they are trying to get it up there. :-)

Hopefully it will show up on some Indi DVD soon?

was great to see you for lunchy and such, wish I hadn't lost ya when we got to the theater but it's tough to keep up with such a popular bear :)

and the "One Down" line... classic, especially since you had no way of knowing it really did take him out of the contest. I suspect I would have made a similar crack I'm sure.

Thanks for the invite mister, really glad Bob and I went.

I need to get ya the $ for the tix too, meant to do that last night sorry :(

[dendren.livejournal.com]
