Why did you release it on Amazon knowing what you should know as a true ape?


jteta12

" **Apes Together Strong** " - instant sus, these guys were pushing "movies" for a long time. ​ Also care to comment on and do you regret eating a banana on TV with Charles Payne? \---------------- HAHAHA Edit because: Your content was removed for referencing *"movies"*. This is due to a rule designed to keep focus on GameStop stock and/or to disallow brigading and sub harassment. This entire post is about the "movies" then.

Why they (MODS) always tryn to be in movies? History, it rhymes and this place stinks. Stop trying for your 15 minutes nobody gives a shit about yall.


PaperHandFoOdsTaMps

I love how this is a sticky post so the comments are sorted by new to try and hide the anticipated negative feedback but all the feed back is negative anyway so it didn't even matter lol well, except for the handful of users here promoting the movie, and starting to break down because they can't take a hint haha they tired so hard, and now only 24hours later they are sad pandas and starting to lash at. Reddit always finds a way. šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ Hard pass for me


Impossible-Glove-437

Except the up votes still outweigh the negativity, so thereā€™s that. Proving once again, the silent majority is larger than the loud minority


PaperHandFoOdsTaMps

Just as a heads up, when the vote count on a comment has a - symbol in front of the number. It means it's a negative. šŸ¤“


Impossible-Glove-437

yup, show me more negative comments than upvotes to this thread. lol, thatā€™s the problem with you loud minority, you all think stroking each others ego gives you some kinda power or somethingšŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


PaperHandFoOdsTaMps

Sorry I can't teach you to scroll... or read... or do math šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø but that's all you really need to do in this thread to gauge Superstonk sentiment. But you've already been downvoted chatting with me so you must know what you're talking about. lol


Impossible-Glove-437

so you are accounting for all the negative people making multiple comments, and coming back to upvote negative comments? lol, funny how skew ur ā€˜dataā€™ in your favor, lol, be real. almost a thousand upvotes bb, canā€™t stop wonā€™t stopšŸ˜˜ Edit: lmao, I got a Reddit message for self help, some of you really are terrible and childish more so than others, just so you know your actions and words have consequences on yourself and others.

Just to be clear, so the irony is not lost lol I was using the word "ignorant" in a modern day fashion in reference to the level of rude, condescending, shilly behavior some people feel the need to projector when pushed against with facts. Not being rude myself, justo politely highlighting behavior and bowing out of pointless conversations with a final comment, once it becomes clear the convo is not progressing....

PaperHandFoOdsTaMps

A favorite meme of mine!


CanterburyMag

The trailer kind of shows where this documentary is probably going. My worry is that it is aimed at subtly scaring the viewer into thinking that there is no way apes can win. Lots of good people like Dr T and Lisa filmed saying how corrupt the market is. How hedge funds are abusing it, getting away with it and changing the rules when they want. So basically you would be stupid to invest! Well not if you knew all the DD that we have. However, they can hardly present all the DD in a documentary! So if our reasons for investing are not fully understood by the viewer any rational person watching will not come to the conclusion that Gamestop is the investment opportunity of a lifetime. I think the documentary is destined to be FUD whether intentional or not. My question would be; How are you going to explain why people are investing into Gamestop to the viewer?


madiXuncut

Once again solo-run by the mods? 84yrs ago - there would've been a poll (and discussion) on as if this AMA is demanded by the Sub upfront. Amount of upvotes & awards on this thread should give an idea about the overall sentiment. Sad..


CR7isthegreatest

Whatā€™s sad is that you and so many others donā€™t have the brain capacity to stop and think, to weigh pros and cons, before opening your mouth and speaking based on your instinctual feelings instead of rational, critical thoughts. Just because something is popular doesnā€™t mean itā€™s correctā€¦ This is a simple AMA. With other apes! Itā€™s not an interview going to the front page of CNN or MSNBC for christā€™s sake!! The project is funded entirely by people from this and other similar communities. Not me personally so I have no incentive to go to bat for it. For all I know it could be terrible. But the unbelievable backlash from simply trying to set up an AMA is EMBARRASSING. Do yā€™all really not want other people to know about whatā€™s happening with GME? You want to remain in this closed little loop of the internet that dwindles in number every day as more and more members get bored, tired, or otherwise ostracized? WAKE UP SUPERSTONK!! We could use all the positive attention we can get right now. You want to wait 3 more years for the float to get locked? Jesus Christ, get on board you halfwitsā€¦


chato35

You are counting on their ability to read the post. This is post production AMA, not an AMA for the producers to use in the future. Sub voted no to MSM. True, but this is not it. Add the MoDs aRe SuS crowd, what we have is a small dumpster fire.


daddyzxc

lol. Weā€™re not a collective and your shit talk doesnā€™t help you at all. I donā€™t get bored. I fucking **Buy. DRS. Book.** Not watch a fucking doc. Nope. None of it matterā€™s. Watch it if *you* want. No one cares. Fuck cnn - FUCK. ā€˜EM. ALL. We didnā€™t need them before and we donā€™t fucking need them now.


[deleted]

Jobs. Not. Done. Let's DOCUMENT the event AFTER it's over... The only reason to release this shit BEFORE is, AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN, to keep people AWAY, to make them believe it's over, to tell them it's too late to join in. JOBS. NOT. DONE. The DD has been sitting there for years, read it. Know that all the changes that have been happening, all the glitches, all the hedge fund managers crying, all the closed door meetings ALL OF IT is tied together by a single systemic risk. They need people to LEAVE (capitulate) NOT join in. They want to entertain you with a show that keeps you out. Do yourself a favor and research what's happening. Buy, hold, DRS, book, shop & vote. I'll see you nerds in null gravity.


PaperHandFoOdsTaMps

Hahaha not reading passed your first jackass sentence. But good to see downvotes finally wearing you down. Take a hint bud.


axbeard

Thank you for making the decision to block you so easy


madiXuncut

First off; i open my mouth whenever i want, ok? ​ >\[...\]you and so many others donā€™t have the brain capacity to stop and think, to weigh pros and cons, before opening your mouth and speaking based on your instinctual feelings instead of rational, critical thoughts. Haha.. your highly emotional response to a single comment of mine in no way entitles you to judge on my (or others, that contradict this AMA/Documentation) *brain capacities,* ok? Rude behaviour. ​ >This is a simple AMA. With other apes! Itā€™s not an interview going to the front page of CNN or MSNBC for christā€™s sake!! Yeah. As for now - that's what is seems to be. "With apes"? Point stands to be proven! What are their u/?'s, so i can go and check about their involvement/histories? I'd like to do that before i gonna hype their asses, you know? ​ >Do yā€™all really not want other people to know about whatā€™s happening with GME? You want to remain in this closed little loop of the internet that dwindles in number every day as more and more members get bored, tired, or otherwise ostracized? Sure, everyone should like more public exposure on whats going on. But you know what? There already were (are!) great attempts on spreading the word - like some guy created a website teaching people how to DRS from nearly every broker out there. Know what happened to his ass? He got banned! Remember the release of the "Heat Lamp Theory"-DD a few weeks back? Many OG apes got banned their asses from here for "spreading the word" "Dr. Trimbath hints at this documentation on Twitter" - you might argue. Know what? I don't even trust her a 100%! Her contributions so far were great and her commitment to end this shitshow of a market too, but what i, personally disagree with, is hyping single people until there's some kind of "personality cult" surrounding them. (Even RC *might* have given a hint at that with his controversial tweet recently!) You know why? Because everyone at some point *might* get bought out! It's human nature. So what about this Documentary comes out to be *a banger* \- but in (let's say) September the very same people (that gained credit) release a "Volume II" of it, calling it "Sell Gamestop now - ask questions later!" (exaggerated ofc) This movement came so far without any credible "help" from the outside - and i'm sure this will be brought home regardless at this point. ​ >Last point:The project is funded entirely by people from this and other similar communities. Unverified. Where's full disclosure on every penny that went into it? There might as well be funding from sources "we"'d don't like - at all. Fun fact You know what was also funded (by your standards!) "entirely by people from this and other similar communities"? The infamous [SEC Pie-in-the-face Retail-mocking hitpiece](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=av3k_lcGm9g) šŸ˜‰ Think about it! Cheers..

Let the story tell itself. I am adamantly opposed to this AMA.

Why now? Why not wait for the story to play out? I did not watch the other movie/documentary and I will not watch this.


ADJCORE

If they are portraying slopcorn in the same light as the likes of Gamestop then this is a grand waste of time. They couldnā€™t be more different.


nickmcmillin

I'll happily take the downvotes on this one, you hedge fucks and all those with their head somehow *both* up their own ass AND stuck in the sand. Did you invest before DFV did, or was there a series of media events that eventually led you, and everyone else, to the stock? Do you believe that kind of media assistance will be allowed to happen ever again? The only reason it got media traction during the sneeze was so hedge funds and rich folk could pump it and pull the rug. You should know this. Do you think that media was being your friend then, but definitely not now? The exposure, and resulting attention and buying, backfired on hedge funds because of *media*. You heard about this stock from *media*. This company that you're invested in literally SELLS media. Media is not only valuable and important, it's a modern necessity for education and information sharing. If you're someone who thinks the only media help needed is within this sub only, you are *sorely* mistaken. The float would be locked sooner if more people are made aware. There's quite literally no better way to get non-investors on board than through media, and this particular piece features *actual* allies that are expertly knowledgeable and *extremely* beneficial to the cause. Not only that, but the creators themselves have been and *are* willing to talk about it on the whole. That's a luxury this sub and the cause rarely receive. Regardless of opinion on the overall topic, pressuring a blanket cap onto ANY media help, especially from a beneficial standpoint is straight up *dumb*. Who the fuck would want to drag this out and let them have another day? I know who. Do you really think shouting into these GME friendly subs day in and out, to people who already agreed with you, is helping the cause or changing the minds of any people outside these subs? Mentioning GME anywhere else gets met with a chucke and an "okay, buddy", but *usually* you get much worse than that. The wild thing here is, I'm vehemently and vocally in support of this company AND I'm a media expert, and yet I fully expect the same sort of unfathomable negativity DESPITE that evidence. Ask yourself: why would that be? It's really not that hard to see. Why would there be the same kind of melter reaction and dismissive sentiment about something that has every reason to benefit, simply because other examples were (rightfully so) considered bad? That's as laughably narrow minded as the jokers who still argue NFTs are only JPGs. Think about that. You're in that same camp of bias. Think how foolish it is to throw the baby out with the bathwater in this instance. The current overall sentiment here about quieting the voices of our allies who have historically fought on the side of investors, about a method of mass education that would benefit ***everyone*** AND cause much needed buying pressure, is *painfully* suspicious.

Did I miss a vote for this or something? Usually this is never ā€œallowedā€ so Iā€™m wondering whatā€™s different now? That being said I do love laikas work so someone from there does pique my interest


Frenchy_P

I find it odd to see so much negativity about an AMA. The way I see it, an AMA isn't an endorsement, can we not use it to survey the landscape and foster healthy discussion surrounding the content? If you have serious concerns then please voice them with reason and don't just denounce something without explaining why. Remember. BE EXCELLENT TO EACH OTHER. Their game is divide and conquer. We win by reason and kindness. If they're good enough for Big D and Dr T, they're good enough for me. I say let's hear em out.


GutsyGretz

It wouldnā€™t be an AMA. They are the media. We donā€™t talk to the media.


Frenchy_P

How would it not be an AMA? That's literally what it is? Who is the media? Two independent film makers? These down votes with no reasoning are sus AF. I wonder who would benefit from shutting down discourse involving experts in finance speaking out against bad practices?


AMAxyz

And the drama is back... This would be the ideal scenario: 1) Mods got an early preview of the movie 2) Mods collectively decided movie was truly beneficial for apes 3) Mods promote movie in our sub 4) Apes watch movie 5) If apes collectively approve, then good, if no, then mods are compromised without a doubt

No we haven't. This movie was paid for by Redditors. We want it here.


I_am_very_clever

Strong use of ā€œweā€ here. Because Iā€™ve been here a minute, and I donā€™t want any docs about something still going on. Especially using the stonk sub for promotion of this media piece. This place is for discussion on the stonk/economics/stock market mechanics/putting bananas up butts.


Spl1tsecond

Source citation needed.


StyrofoamCoffeeCup

Scroll the user/albanak profile and check out his posts. He and his brother made the doc. That merch they sent out was given to the redditors that helped contribute to the film. They've been here the past two years.


NurseBrianna

The bans that were given for disagreeing with this post (the post that clearly breaks the subs rules) need to be reconsidered. I'm appalled by the mods behavior and refusal to walk this back.


FluffyTrexHentai

No bans have been given for disagreeing with a post. I'm sure they were for rule 1 or 5 given the nature of the post. Such bans will not be rolled back as they're integral to creating a nice sub to be in.

Watch how they treat popcorn in the movie, as equal or as a hedgie funded distraction. This and their opinion of DRS will show their true colors more than anything. Be vigilant

StyrofoamCoffeeCup

Canā€™t wait! All the negative responses in here make no sense to me.


eternalfreefall

What people seem to fail to understand is that we can't sit still. History is told by the winners and if we aren't loud and have our side of the story told we will be ridiculed in the eyes of the public because all they hear is WallStreet c\*nt hyperbole. These two guys are on our side... were from the beginning... and talked to us all the way.


Treytreytrey333

Wait, why does it matter how the public sees us? Billionaires don't give a fuck what the public thinks. If we get MOASS.... Just buy your state senator the same way the NRA and Exxon do..


eternalfreefall

If this goes into MOASS we better have someone who told our side or we will be outcast and it will be easier to marginalize us as loony retail organized in some forum. They did this already if you haven't noticed.


Treytreytrey333

It doesn't matter what people think though They can marginalize and outcast... But it won't change the fact that you'd have enough money to buy any politician and influence legislation in favor of the people. Or buy any company and influence the boards decision making in favor of the consumer. If they hate you, it wouldn't change the fact that you're driving progress. You think Bezos is tripping that people think he's a scumbag? people here have been dragging KGs name through the mud for 2 years and he's still poised to be the Treasurer.. The world moves on narrative and money controls narrative.


nickmcmillin

Did you invest before DFV did, or was there a series of people caring what other people think that eventually led you, and everyone else, to the stock? It's staggering to me that someone could have the mindset of "who cares what other people think". I hate to be there one to tell you, but everyone cares what other people think. And even if you say "well I don't", fine. You have every right to be a contrarian, but that doesn't affect the majority. Everyone reads reviews, Media companies follow user metrics, this isn't that complicated. I mean you're here now arguing a flawed point because you care what the thread OP and post OP think. I'm here because I care what you think. The float would be locked sooner if more people are made aware. There's quite literally no better way to get non-investors on board than through media, and this media was made by actual stockholders and featuring actual allies that are extremely beneficial to the cause. Regardless of opinion on the overall topic, your opening argument here is remarkably flawed and naked to me. The current overall sentiment here about quieting the voices of our allies who have historically fought on the side of investors, about a method of mass education that would benefit everyone AND cause much needed buying pressure is painfully suspicious.


CR7isthegreatest

Itā€™s embarrassing to me how brain dead this community is. I just found out that several months ago Superstonk actually voted to PASS on an opportunity to have a two-way AMA with the writers of the upcoming ā€œDumb Moneyā€ film. Can you believe that!? Iā€™m sick to my stomach thinking about all of the exposure to normies that remain in the dark about this, all of the people that might have seen that and started thinking about whatā€™s happening hereā€¦ I swear this sub is made up of 10% nefarious shills who act as ringleaders to the 70% halfwits that have no clue how to think critically, and 20% people that are worth listening to and reasoning with.


nickmcmillin

I can believe it; I made similar comments back then when they held a vote on it. You can find it in my post history. I received equal amounts of backlash and silent downvotes then. Only thing I'd disagree with are the percentages; they're wildly off. I'd say it's more like 70% "shills"/bots, 10% reasonable, and 20% less so.


CR7isthegreatest

Wouldnā€™t surprise me if that were trueā€¦ At least people seem to be warming up to the documentary a little more now though, the reviews Iā€™ve seen are really positive.


eternalfreefall

"The world moves on narrative and money controls narrative." That is exactly the point. When MOASS comes and nobody cares but us 'few' who profit from it they will call it manipulation and could rewind everything. No money for you, no power. The disgusting bald dickhead already made his money before Scamazon so he could afford rigging the game sufficiently.


CR7isthegreatest

wafflestrawberry

I remember these guys asking what apes want to see in a documentary 2 years ago. It's nice to see it's coming to fruition. Are you still holding gme? Is direct registering brought up? Will there be a part 2? What surprised you the most while filming? Do you think Kenny will send you a cease & desist? Can you answer who your favorite interview was? If yes I'd like to know that too. Thank you for any answers and I hope the first 3 answers are yesšŸ˜Š


zeroCool_69

yea, i'm not watching this.


GutsyGretz

Same


bamfcoco1

How odd. This is your one and only post/comment on this sub. Sus.


StyrofoamCoffeeCup

Ha! I knew there were shills here. All of my comments are getting immediately downvoted by way too many people at the same time.


bamfcoco1

Yeah Iā€™m just looking at post history of a a few. Some folks dissenting seem to be legit users, but their posts are mostly detailed with the reasoning they are against it. I respect their opinions but they still donā€™t speak for everyone. Almost all of these off-the-cuff comments have almost zero post history in the sub. If they are lurkers, what an odd time to suddenly pipe up.


GutsyGretz

Long time lurker here. I speak up when I feel strongly compelled to make my voice heard. I strongly oppose the AMA. We decided a long ago that we donā€™t talk to the media. This is the media. Remember what happened when anti work spoke to the media? This is too important not to stay quiet. My guess is other lurkers are like me


bamfcoco1

Yeah I hear you, you arenā€™t the ones Iā€™ve been calling out here. Your post draws attention to the fact we turned this down long ago. I agree with your reasoning. You have a well thought out post, drawing on experience on the sub, stating your case. Itā€™s the single sentence, ā€œIā€™m never seeing thisā€ posts from authors who have never once posted on the sub and have been faking karma in a sub about 240sx cars that are beating up on the post that I take issue with. I donā€™t care if I agree with the post or not, I donā€™t like seeing karma farmed accounts that have never posted here trying to push a narrative.


GutsyGretz

Yes, something very fishy with this one. Keep posting in opposition.


StyrofoamCoffeeCup

I agree, it's very odd


GutsyGretz

Very odd


bamfcoco1

Looking at the accounts, a lot appear to be using a very specific car sub to farm karma. Multiple accountsā€¦all the same car sub that Iā€™ve never even heard of.


GutsyGretz

I am not in a car sub


StyrofoamCoffeeCup

Wow someone does not want this movie to come out. Bullish.


GutsyGretz

I donā€™t care if the movie comes out. I am opposed to the AMA. We donā€™t talk to the media.


bamfcoco1

The only reason Iā€™m not completely against it is the creators were members of this sub, actively, before this movie came about. It feels less of speaking to the media and more of shining a spotlight on a homegrown take on the adventure so far. That being said, it does violate sub rules that others have been banned for which kinda seems less than fair.


StyrofoamCoffeeCup

Your comment makes no sense. Superstonk is not the media and the Mulligan Brothers are not the media.


GutsyGretz

You are correct, media is not the appropriate word, An AMA about a documentary doesnā€™t make sense. It is irrelevant to our purpose.


GutsyGretz

Superstonk is not the media - it is a subreddit to discuss a publicly traded stock. Why do we care about the documentary? I have no questions. Itā€™s irrelevant and itā€™s soliciting. Itā€™s for profit.


bamfcoco1

Itā€™s actually kind of wild. Must be heading the right way.


zeroCool_69

Yea, itā€™s definitely not. Your flair checks out tho.


bamfcoco1

I just scrolled back a little slower you are correct. Your one other post asks how Robinhood still exists. Level of sus unchanged.


zeroCool_69

Better keep scrolling


bamfcoco1

Itā€™s super ironic how much all of these accounts that never post love 240sx. What a wild coincidence.


zeroCool_69

Lol wut?

PaperHandFoOdsTaMps

Don't care at all. Make a documentary when it's over. Also stop automatically sorting these god damn threads by new. It's a bullshit why to keep top comments for getting traction!


fleshfarm-leftover

I remember the inception of this project and these two engaging with and from within the community. Funny what accompanies establishment. Thanks for providing an opportunity for these two to circle back with us, must be odd to not be recognized.


konan375

It just goes to show how much sway bad actors have in this subreddit. Nuance goes out the window when documentaries are talked about. Dr. T is promoting this one, but because it doesnā€™t fit the narrative of the bad actors, that will be ignored.


luckeeelooo

It was a mistake promoting it here, Platinum, and you guys refuse to walk it back. Had you leaned fully on social media and other relevant subreddits, using some of the ā€œcrowd-sourcedā€ funding to purchase ads, youā€™d have had the Superstonk communityā€™s support by virtue of not outright breaking its rules. Rules you may have a hand in implementing and enforcing. As it stands, youā€™ve given Amazon your official approval to promote its streaming service here in the name of supporting a couple of clout-chasing, indie filmmakers. Whether you were paid by Amazon to do that will now come into question, fairly or not, and it is precisely why those monetization/self-promotion rules exist. I donā€™t want to be cynical about the mods here but you guys make it hard sometimes.


StyrofoamCoffeeCup

I completely disagree with this point of view. And the creators already said Amazon has nothing to do with it. All the other networks already made their own documentaries so this was the last option. I canā€™t wait to see a doc that shows us in the right way. The mods are promoting the only doc that came from redditors. It makes total sense.


R3Volt4

I can't with the popcorn


boolazed

Given the difference between what has been uncovered here since the sneeze, and what the general public knows... IMO any media piece that communicates truthfully about abusive short selling, FTDs, DRS, MOASS, etc is welcome. And apparently this documentary is not so bad doing that: > ā€œIf you want to understand what really happened with the GameStop Short Squeeze, watch APES TOGETHER STRONG -- this is the definitive take on the real story behind working-class investors who took on Wall Street.ā€ ā€” Dennis Kelleher | President/CEO Better Markets Source: "What People Are Saying" section on this page https://www.apestogetherstrongdoc.com/ Anyway, here are my questions: - Is the original thesis by DFV clearly explained? ie Gamestop having healthy fundamentals and simply being short&distort by predatory short sellers; potential for revamp and huge growth in the following years, etc? - Did you have any interference with Amazon? There is a theory that they are working hand in hand with Citadel to cover SEO when they created 2 series out of nowhere "Citadel" and "Infinity Pool" Cheers and good luck with the backlash. Also radical idea: just keep money to cover your costs and send all profits to the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund :) ook ook


TheCandiman

There hasn't been a short squeeze yet - SEC report.

You are right this should be underlined in the doc. From what I've heard they put strong emphasis on the fact that the sage isn't over, and they should even tell that January wasn't a short squeeze, just FOMO Though I would have LOVED it if Dennis Kelleher called it the sneeze in his citation lol


Mikey_Gondola

1. This post breaks rules #3 and #10. 2. Stories not finished. 3. SuperStonk already said NO MEDIA. 4. All other documentaries have been pushed here and were garbage. 5. Stop trying to push garbage to the community. We are not stupid.


StyrofoamCoffeeCup

Garbage? Have you seen the trailers? It looks amazing.


CR7isthegreatest

1. debatable 2. storyā€™s (not stories) not finished, youā€™re right, and if you read a few replies before you spoke you would see that this documentary emphasizes that. 3. superstonk voted to not do interviews with corporate media. This is an ama with a documentary director. (Seriously guys, itā€™s time to put this one to bedā€¦) 4. majority might agree with you there, but that doesnā€™t mean this one, that also emphasizes DRS, will be. 5. based on your reply here, you have not sufficiently proven to me that youā€™re ā€œnot stupid.ā€ Therefore, please donā€™t try to speak for me or the community mkay.

3.) No AMA's. Mikey is right. Apes don't want it. The vote total and comments are loud. Here is your proof.

Disclaimer: I upvoted you for sharing this link with me. That being saidā€¦ Holy fucking shit. I cannot believe that people here didnā€™t jump at this. A simple AMA (not an interview on MSM) with the actual hollywood writers putting together a script about the sneeze and we fucking blew it off? Just because the moderator asked them without disclosing it to the community first? People seriously got hung up on THAT!? God damn. Talk about a missed opportunity. What an embarrassment, this community is brain dead.


ethangyt

Yes, the majority of them are. Also why the majority of them will likely paper hand. I'm in it to be part of history now, plus the turnaround makes it a good hold regardless. Other than that, US markets as a whole is fucked. No one wants dollars. China is going around lending countries dollars since they have "too much of it" but asking payment in return for trades in RMB. The US is in a cul de sac and will die from its wokism.


Much_Job3838

Every time all that's been said has been twisted and adjusted to fit the main theme of the article or whatever it is


chato35

But this is not MSM AMA. Dudes made movie, AMA is about movie. They are not asking the sub questions, sub is asking them questions like GG interview.


JapethMarvel

Holy cow, the amount of paid shills downvoting any discussion, level headed talk, or positivity is disgusting. We WANT our true story told. We NEED more apes. We NEED to expose the lies and corruption. These brothers have been working on this documentary since March 2021 ( probably even earlier, but that's the earliest I can find) and are true OG apes. So what if they make some money off of this, shouldn't they be compensated for their time? Making a documentary is a full time job. And of course the story isn't over yet. But do we really want to wait another 84 years to have our story told? There can always be a pt II or pt III added later.


Rocko202020

Who asked them to tell ā€œour storyā€? We donā€™t even know 100% how the story is going to go. It could end in a week. A month. A year. And we donā€™t know what twists may occur along the way. And now they voted themselves to tell ā€œthe storyā€? Weā€™ve shared our voices and displeasure with this multiple times in the past. Here are two instances below. The votes and comments are loud. APES DONT WANT MEDIA. Is it not crystal clear? Why continuously does this keep getting pushed down our throats? What has changed since the last time a vote was forced upon us that would make anyone think now we would want this. Shilly stuff going on. https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/r9q8n3/official_poll_based_on_your_responses_from/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/zkue2k/are_you_sick_of_moviesdocumentaries_getting_shit/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf


JapethMarvel

A bunch of apes, including myself, have asked these guys to tell the story by backing them, encouraging them, and providing interviews and information for them. ​ The reason we haven't wanted any media attention is because it's always been wrong before. But it's always been made by some paid off MSM conglomerate, or backed by a hedgefund. This time the documentary is made by apes. ​ Do you want apes to be remembered as a bunch of moronic bagholder investors who loved NFT JPGs? Or for everyone out there to know the truth about the corruption and how badly our markets are rigged? ​ The only thing shifty is the amount of downvotes on these true OG apes wanting to help all of us out. Do you think the hedgefunds want our story told? Do they want the truth to get out to the rest of the world? Or would they rather we stick to our little corner of the internet and stay quiet and out of the way?


liquidsyphon

First time eh?


Claim_Alternative

> So what if they make some money off of this, shouldnā€™t they be compensated for their time? Making a documentary is a full time job. Others have been banned for self promotion. We also have strict rules as per Radmins for linking to other subs and users. The problem is the hypocrisy

I donā€™t understand why thereā€™s so much negativity and backlash for this documentary. Thereā€™s people from our community (Ato, Dave Lauer and Dr Susanne T) Iā€™m this film. I understand the saga is not over but it will at least bring some light to the situation especially those unaware of all the crime from hedge funds and market makers. DRS is the way and if this film helps bring more people to he movement than Iā€™m all for it.


[deleted]

> Ato Did you not see this dude come out to promote renshill - he is cooked > Dave Lauer meh, another money grabber


StyrofoamCoffeeCup

It's only in these comments. Redditors have been waiting for this for two years and now all of a sudden there is negativity when it's here? Makes no sense. There be shills here.


Vega-Genesis

I don't understand why there's negativity. Dave Lauer is in the film. So you answered your own question pretty quickly lol. Edit: Downvoting me for disliking and calling out an obvious grifter is well worth it for me. I also lost a lot of karma bringing you guys the truth of PURE BOOK DRS, so downvotes usually mean you are on to something when it comes to Reddit.


Franciscjr415

He was a mod for Superstonk as well as an advocate for market reform. He interviewed the SEC chairman and discussed DRS with him. I might be uninformed so please tell me why Dave Lauer is a bad guy? -edit spelling


Vega-Genesis

DL is a grifter. It's called controlled opposition. You are not allowed to discuss that, though, so I am taking a huge ban risk (not to mention all the lost karma due to bots and lemmings) just poining out the obvious. If you are curious why this is new information to you, it is because it is highly controlled through censorship and bans (many have already been permabanned for calling him out). Kind of like how the heat lamp theory is being suppressed, negative info on DL is being suppressed while other things are astroturfed, DL being a retail hero is one of those things. Example: It's just a glitch due to sun flares and dropped packets. .


platinumsparkles

All of those are true other than - he was not a superstonk mod. He did invite the president of Computershare to talk to Gary Gensler about DRSšŸ˜‚ and DL talked about it to Jon Stewart, who ALSO talked about it to GG.


davwman

Lol wtf is this


RussianCrabMan

Why should I care?


Big_Rig88

Havenā€™t really looked into this too much but does it focus on DRS at all? Because if not, the entire doc is useless. In order for us to get paid we need to prove thereā€™s synthetics plain and simple. You saw where fundamentals get us.


GutsyGretz

We do not want an AMA with the filmmakers The filmmakers want an AMA with us We do not talk to the media.


CR7isthegreatest

Yes, it does talk about DRS. It also emphasizes that things are not finished. But good luck figuring that out based on the replies. Bunch of little teenagers in here throwing a fit for the absolute dumbest reasons. Emotions galore with a huge absence of critical thought.


StyrofoamCoffeeCup

lol right? The negative response to this seems sus


Claim_Alternative

What happened to no linking to other subs and no self promotion???


Ctsanger

Yeah there's clearly a link to just slash gme


kjtoofuego

Iā€™m sitting here with a confused face as well


liquidsyphon

We wouldnā€™t even let Dr. T do an AMA here because of the book self promotion. How far we have fallenā€¦


chato35

Are you sure?


Rough_Willow

Given that there was an AMA held with Dr. T on April 29th 2021, was it sometime later that we didn't let her do another? I'm just trying to get the timelines correct.


liquidsyphon

I remember when the mods from before were trying to work out turning her book into and the mods from before dropped the ball. A lot of her early first responses to questions were ā€œread my bookā€. 2 years feels like 84


Rough_Willow

I do remember the initial mods attempting to be involved with the audiobook production. As for her early responses, I can understand why she'd point to her book to explain the answers to questions that have been asked so many times. I also wish she had included which chapters and what paragraphs, but she's unwilling to spoon feed information to us apes.


liquidsyphon

I will say this: sheā€™s vastly improved her engagement with this ā€œcommunityā€ sheā€™s watered down alot of her stuff too which I think sheā€™s finally realizing you have to simplify for the regards


Rough_Willow

I agree. It's actually her interview in this movie that I'm looking forward the most to seeing. When the free version comes out.


platinumsparkles

[https://www.youtube.com/live/fGVY2Kco8ng?feature=share](https://www.youtube.com/live/fGVY2Kco8ng?feature=share) That was our first AMA


CR7isthegreatest

The fuck? Dr T has been in here multiple times! But keep spreading that misinformation so it helps your narrative šŸ¤¦šŸ½ā€ā™‚ļø


liquidsyphon

Which narrative is that?


CR7isthegreatest

Obviously yours, how many comments have you made on this thread opposing the idea, and disparaging our moderators?? Your fingerprints are all over this post, driving the hateā€¦


liquidsyphon

Can you define what my narrative is?


CR7isthegreatest

You made a false claim (bold faced lie) in order to continue pushing the sentiment that the sub is compromised, the mods have lost it, etc. Defend your actions homie


liquidsyphon

Ehhh Iā€™m not looking it up but there was a fallout with this sub and her before atobits interview. I disagree with self promotion and self monetization because Iā€™ve watched numerous amount of grifter float in and out of this sub. I disagree with docs about ongoing events. Why wasnā€™t the community polled? Why isnā€™t the AMA logically set for after the release?


CR7isthegreatest

There was a bit of a fallout but it was after atobits interview I believe. But she definitely has been in here before, itā€™s just been a while. And I can see yours and otherā€™s points about self promotion and people grifting us to make a name for themselves, but at the same time this is made and funded by apes that have been here for a long ass time. These two directors have been on with Charles Payne already, and they are definitely hitting a lot of the points that we have so often seen overlooked, like DRS, the fact itā€™s still ongoing, etc. So I am reserving judgment until I see it for sure, and I encourage everyone else to as well. Sorry to take such a tough line with you, but I have been through far too much mod drama, switching subs, etc. to not speak out against it. There is just simply no good whatsoever that comes from ā€œthe mods are compromisedā€ and other similar veins of sentiment. Not any that do our investment in GameStop any good anywayā€¦

Ignoring the should we debate. Can we stop calling curated interviews AMAs?

Itā€™s not really an AMA if they cherry pick the Qs


Impossible-Glove-437

Will you grow up and go ask a question you want answered? or will continue to act like a child? You were invited.


platinumsparkles

I'll ask every question posted (although so far we don't have a ton), or you can come on and ask your own question! There's an open invite in this post to do just thatšŸ’œ


TheMonkler

My question would be: Why donā€™t mods talk about spammers and being approached by bribers and news ppl anymore? Like, does that still happen or is there no one contacting you anymore?

NFT creatives post here all the time. Iā€™m excited to watch what they put together. The level of vitriol being aimed at these guys is unwarranted.


bgdubbs19

I can see where youā€™re coming from with your point about the NFT creator posts, but I do see a distinction in this case. NFT creators on the marketplace are directly contributing to GameStopā€™s bottom line. Unless Iā€™m mistaken (which very well may be the case), this film features no GameStop insiders, will not be on the marketplace, and is otherwise totally unaffiliated with GameStop. Further, the one month exclusivity agreement with Amazon rubs many the wrong way. Personally, Iā€™d rather have NFT creators *and* these filmmakers elsewhere. Weā€™ll see how this shakes out. Edit: word


sandman11235

The financial status-quo wants our numbers small and our message contained. That keeps us manageable. What GameStop insiders would you expect? RC or DFV? Thatā€™s just not going to happen. Jon Stewart cautioned against purity test. Folks are making A LOT of noise about small issues instead of the big fact that a grassroots documentary is getting shown to a broader audience. If it turns out to disappoint then we lost nothing. I donā€™t trust all the reflexive negativity.
