The Clonix Orb

Man, you have GOT to get better at lying. "We have haters" and "They made something out of their comfort zone" don't really belong in there if you're also going to claim you have no idea who anyone involved in the film was. As the heat was open to cast and crew only, were you in another team? It's quite an amazing coincidence that almost all the people who gave this a 10 made the same weird mistake you did of either "accidentally" giving low star amounts to films they claimed to like, or forgetting that any other film was shown. As soon as the review page opened there were three identical ten star reviews with different usernames and no other films reviewed. Paulette, if you're genuinely not aware of the douchebaggery going on here, I'm sorry for the stress this is probably causing you. I know you claim that it doesn't seem like anyone in your team, but it seems fairly unlikely a stranger would be that invested in this film getting fake ten star reviews, which help no one. The review system is actually a great service most of the time, because outside input helps us all make better films. If anything, the fake ten stars are doing you a disservice because the bits that could be improved, wont.

The Clonix Orb

If only this short was as intriguing and organised as the cast and crews bizarre efforts to flood the reviews of it! The idea that people will believe reviews that contain intmate knowledge of the crew and production process are genuine is fascinating, especially when the reviews don't mean anything for the competition. What do they hope to gain? Do they not understand the importance of genuine feedback to creative/commercial endeavours? Do they honestly believe this was a ten star movie, perfect in every way? How do they reconcile making a film they believe is literally perfect and not winning? Someone needs to make a documentary short about these guys! *Edited to clarify for the person below me: Yes I did see this film, as well as all the rest at this and other heats. You'll notice that no one who gave this film 10 stars has reviewed any other films. Regardless, what I've written above is 100% genuine, I am completely intrigued by the thought processes that lead to this situation. I am genuinely interested in seeing a documentary about it.
