Christmas just came early. 🎄
RAMEKINS: RAMEKIN II is now available for FREE on YouTube! Read this thread to find out why, if you're curious—it's important information.
Starting Nov. 1, 2021, Amazon Prime Video drastically changed how you are able to find truly independent films on its platform—from that date onward, only STUDIO films are allowed to be 'free to Prime members', and as such, show up when browsing.
This means that the tens of thousand of people who enjoyed RAMEKIN have to by chance deliberately type in 'ramekin' into search in order to even find out that a sequel was released. This has hugely hindered the sequel's ability to reach the first film's audience.
Not all my fans follow me, or even know to—most people watch a movie, and enjoy it, and go on with their lives, not follow the director's every move after. As such, most fans of RAMEKIN a) dont know my name and b) assume a sequel, if released, will fall in their laps again.
Because of Amazon Prime Video's new policy, there is literally know way for them to know the film exists, so I have to build up an audience for these films by scratch again. This time, I'm doing so on YouTube, where I have more control of reaching fans.
If you enjoy RAMEKINS: RAMEKIN II, please rate/review it on Amazon and IMDb. That still really helps. Thank you, and enjoy!

As the saying goes, when a news piece is written about you, you finally realize without a doubt how full of shit the news is. Similarly, when you make movies you learn how full of shit a lot of bad reviews are. I will be breaking down the following review of RAMEKINS: RAMEKIN II:
'I saw this recently through another who had bought it'
This starts out on the defensive because I have accurately pointed out that the same BS complaints are made in the same way across multiple 1-star reviews / fake names—meaning the same idiot writing them with fake accounts.
The intent on the troll's part is to manufacture the existence of seemingly indisputable 'flaws' with the film, because *SO* many people are complaining about it (one idiot, multiple accts). For instance that 'eyelines are wrong'—this is patently untrue.

Mike Leigh stumbles upon the Netflix paradox here— which is also a smoking gun about their whole operation. Netflix is happy to grossly overpay (money laundering) for certain movies, but will not give a fair amount to a filmmaker who has made great movies for the last 50 years
Never forget:
Netflix is not in the 'entertainment business' in any real sense. They are in the MONEY SPENDING business—and all the evil that comes with that. They are perpetually, intentionally in debt to the tune of 8 billion a year. They are a giant red flag.

Much like how Amazon quietly ended Made-on-Demand discs, they no longer allow what they call 'unsolicited' films/TV to be free to prime subscribers on Prime Video. This means that if you want to watch the best actually independent releases, you will need to pay a few bucks.
I owe so much of my fanbase to my films being able to break through on Amazon Prime Video, reaching people browsing for free movies to watch on there. When it's paid, it doesn't even get the same exposure—you have to dig for the movies, they sometimes dont even come on on search.
This is yet another example of a sliver of a golden era, gone before anyone could realize how great it was. Those that struck while the iron was hot know. Those that never did are too late. I encouraged people to release on there. No one listened

its an inordinately dangerous thing when the people in control of your life believe that suffering is virtuous
notice how every fucking thing they take away from you lately is 'bad for the environment anyway'

they are using their green cult bullshit to erode every facet of life that makes life worth living

covid is just the tip of the iceberg, the trojan horse, etc
the goal is not a safe planet but a planet where they are safe from the people—populism is their enemy, and eroding all of popular life is their way to eradicate it or any future populist uprisings

dudes will be all secretive about their 'big movie idea' and then after you pass like 50 security doors of friendship they finally tell you and it's like 'what if bad guy is like fauci'
the virgin 'i gotta keep my ideas to myself' vs the chad 'cody clarke just gave away 100 free horror movie ideas on twitter'
OMG also the worst ever is when someone tells you their 'big idea' and its just adapting some existing property they dont have the rights to and have no way of getting. like their idea is just 'thing exists that i like—maybe someone gives me that?'

there's more than enough art of a given type at any given time to support a mainstream culture comprised entirely of it. a billionaire could convince you we were living in a golden age of rap, rock, jazz, dance, pop, whatever. you are purposely kept from knowing whats out there
when people say 'there's no good rock bands now' what they mean is 'there's no good rock bands being force fed into me right now'. we are being deprived out of spite—the evil music industry is still angry with consumers and artists
the intention is to make all good (and uncontrolled) art be trees falling down in the woods with no one around to hear them. the intention is to kill nirvana before nirvana can even become nirvana. 'rock bands were a mistake' - the industry, basically
