This is so wrong.
I have chosen to see this film because some of the activists have chosen to try and tell me what I should and should not see or believe. I thought the film was funny in places (it is about drag performers, so I can see the humor). It had some serious violence (of course). It was about revenge, which we all wish we could seek when we have been wronged or anyone in our community has been wronged. I can see why Mr. Luna (director) had used Angie's name in the initial trailer in order to put the name of a transgendered human who died at the hands of such brutality in the minds of people.
The blog you listed, form Kelli, does not tell the whole story. She had been asked three times by the director to screen the film privately with him but she refused. She also refused to discuss it with him. She chose to attack him online and call gays "->-bleeped-<-s" and "->-bleeped-<-gots", attacked the Dallas Voice (a t" friendly newspaper) a ->-bleeped-<- rag. At the showing of the film here in Fort Worth, the "activists?" drew chalk outlines on the sidewalk with Angie and other victims names so that people would wak on them. Why is it wrong for Luna to used their names in trailer in order to bring attention to real violence but it is okay to put them on the sidewalk so people walk all over them? You should be attacking her and her way of "activism" instead of Luna and his film! The way this has been handled is so hypocritical!
