That about sums it up. But he's advertising it like the crazy and persistent bugger that he is. I've actually learned something about marketing from those thirteen pages.
I think most of the people he's approaching are unaware that his film's a sham. He seems pretty ill.

Issac, right! I'm just in awe with this for some reason. It's just a great character study for any psych majors, but better yet it's a very interesting study into what some people will do to get a 'film' out there, at any cost, even if it's full of lies deciet and madness. Just blows my mind.

Re: Nobody wants your film
It's amazing the way he kept goading people on and they just kept falling for it. He pissed people off to the point where it helped publicize his film. Was it intentional or accidental? Probably both.

Re: Nobody wants your film
"where you live is everything when it comes to the marketing of a film... and as you said before... you are not a professional marketer... merely an average movie goer looking for enterainment value for his hard earned dollar, not wanting any surprises or deviations from what he expects and is used to and has seen over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Oh my god, what a ****ing jerk! I'm loving this thread ;D
EDIT: Go to page 2 of the thread if you want to see how crazy he goes with the text size

Re: Nobody wants your film
****************SPOILER WARNING*********************
This was my favorite part, I think it was page 11, when they definately nailed his identity...
'Well, lookie what I found on IMDB under the "crew" information on the movie "13 Moons":
----------
Other crew:
...
Peter Judson .... post-production supervisor
...
----------
We've already established the connections between "13 Moons", the DVD extras, and the website, and now with jro saying his initials are "P.J.", well, the only crewmember fitting that description on IMDB's info is PETER JUDSON - the post-production supervisor. What is a post-production supervisor, you ask? Well, according to IMDB:
---------
Post-Production Supervisor
A person overseeing the entire post-production of a project. They report directly to the producer and/or the studio in charge of the feature. Working side by side with the director and editor, the supervisor has the responsibility of finishing the film on time and on budget while satisfying the wants of the director. Post-production supervisors have authority over post-production co-ordinators. Typical duties include: Controlling all activities with vendors such as optical houses, sound facilities, inserts, ADR, reshooting, CGI, score, delivery requirements to domestic and international distributors, legal clearances, preview screenings, color timing, video mastering and budgeting the movie through the completion and delivery.
----------
Gee, it sounds like this person would CERTAINLY have access to the kind of clips NWYF posted on his site. If you click PETER JUDSON's name you will also see he has NO PRIOR FILM CREDIT AT ALL BEFORE OR AFTER "13 MOONS" with the exception of a short he supposedly 'directed' BACK IN 1990. Way to go, champ. You're makin' a lot of headway on your chosen career, there!
So, going on the name "Peter Judson", I just go to Google, and guess what the first link on the list was? A PICTURE OF PETER JUDSON:
And a blurb:
"Peter Judson, a native New Yorker who now lives in Los Angeles, got his BA in English at Skidmore College and then went on to receive an MFA from New York University in Film Production. His shorts have been shown at the Sundance, NY, Seattle, and Aspen Film Festivals. He directed and produced his first feature, Round 'n Round, while still at NYU, and then went on to produce three more low-budget features soon after he graduated. Nobody Wants Your Film is Peter's second feature film and his first foray into documentary filmmaking."
And here's another photo for your viewing pleasure:
And another blurb:
"On September 30, 2003, writer/director Peter Judson premiered a rough cut of Nobody Wants Your Film at the Professional Artists Lab's Emerging Filmmakers Series. After the screening, Peter spoke with the audience about the film and his views on filmmaking. Audience reaction and feedback helped Peter to fine-tune his film.
The end. Case closed. Nice try, *******. Don't let the door hit you in the *** on the way out.

Here's a funny quote as well:

Response:
Shut up, you pretentious jerk.
EDIT: I just read that there was a similar thread on a movie "Stick To What You Know". I don't think I'll read that one, because Liza (the director of that movie) I've seen on other forums and she seemed really nice. Don't want to see her get taken down, if that's the case. Anyone read it?

Frustration: It's just part of the process
A curio created in the editing room, "Nobody Wants Your Film" is a genuinely original work that won't be for everyone but will certainly resonate with aspiring filmmakers and those interested in creating art in a world of commerce. Consisting of footage shot on the set of an independent film and e-mails stringing together a semifictionalized story line involving the difficulties of gaining distribution, the movie's strengths lie in revealing interviews with cast and crew members as well as surreal — at times beautiful — visuals.
The director includes conversations with indie stalwarts such as Peter Dinklage and Sam Rockwell as well as more seasoned actors such as David Proval. Abstract but absorbing, the interviews vary from locker room jocularity to heartfelt expressions about craft and capture all the banality, frustration, passion and exuberance that go into making a movie. "Nobody Wants Your Film" is both the cautionary tale implied by its title and an inspiring note from the indie underground. The glory may lie in getting your film seen, but the struggle and the numerous rejections cannot negate the importance of doing the work.
"Nobody Wants Your Film," unrated. Running time: 1 hour, 28 minutes. At Laemmle's Sunset 5, 8000 Sunset Blvd., West Hollywood, (323) 848-3500.
