So I was on IMDb checking out the message boards of Repo (what else?) and saw a few posts that really irked me. Mainly by this poster, mindset21, who was really very rude and talking down to my fellow repo fans. so... I responded.
Re: Not even ONE song sounds good.....
You assume so much about an audience you know NOTHING about. Do you realize how many different fan bases have been drawn into this film? I'm 25 and finding that life is pretty fantastic in the world of Repo fandom.
LOOK at the stars of the film. You have people from ALL walks of life - Skinny Puppy fans and Buffy fans! Bill Moseley (classic horror ICON), Sarah Effing BRIGHTMAN! Paris, Alexa, Paul - Dude, seriously, there are so many different fans converging on this scene, it's not even funny.
For the most part, we've become a FAMILY. People are becoming friends, meeting each other during the road tours, and it's amazing the connections we all make with each other. We've EMBRACED our differences.
And just FYI, I love the soundtrack. I know EVERY word to the movie because I've seen it in theaters 13 times and I've traveled thousands of miles for it - I was part of the road trip to Toronto for the world's first shadow cast and I am one of the many who flew to LA this past weekend to be a part of that last stop of Repo Road Tour 3. If I could afford it, or somehow become independently wealthy within the next month, I'd go on the UK tour.
So back the hell off. There's no need to be rude - name calling and typing "sigh" is a show of just how immature you are.
