Thanks for that Rob but I wonder if he'll answer any questions as to why the film turned out like it did or will he come up with more excuses and over the top claims. I haven't seen the film but judging from some of the seemingly genuine reviews - it will be hard to take anything he says seriously now.

All participants' questions must be accompanied by a valid email address, actual name, street address and telephone number."I would no more put my address and phone number in the hands of Timothy Hines than I would put my John Thomas in the hands of a madman with a pair of scissors!"

How do you feel about the negative press behind hte film? Do you feel it is undesreved for the effrot you tried to put into the film? Do you think, given time, the film could be so much more?

Yeh, I found that a bit unusual.

Dear Tim, if you had another five years to polish your 'film' do you think it would be anything other than plain awful?
Do you think that if you put your feet in horse crap when you go to bed would you grow some talent?
Do you think it was wise letting a blind crack addict with a chicken fetish design the fighting machine?
How did you manage to make the thunderchild scene so very very bad?
Did you throw the old ZX Spectrum 28k that you used for the money shot effects into the bin or is it being used to polish the next masterpiece 'Chrome', another 5 years wasted?
Was it time consuming putting up all those fake reviews at Amazon prompting people to buy multiple copies?
Do you still 'cry everyday' at how beutiful your film has become?
Has anyone asked for their money back yet?
Why did you tell so many lies?
And so on...

I think theMaster just answered the question of why he wants people to include an address & phone number.

I sent a couple of questions as prescribed in Rob's post to Pendragon. Not because I really expect PP to be up front. Mainly it's because I'm interested in seeing what Hines could be up to.

Maybe he wants to ask appologize over the phone personally, or send us our money back.
And I sent...
"Do you think that you really accomplished all you could with this film?" "Was their any moment, given the reaction by the fans when you thought it just wasnt worth it?" "Your film has been continually hampered by delayed release dates, bad reaction from fans and the supposed involvement of Paramount pictures, do you feel these events contributed to the overall reaction the film recieved, or was it genuinly just because its crap?"
and
"Why do you want my Phone Number and Address?" "Do you have any jobs going?"

Or he wants to come round in his geek mobile and personally petrol bomb all of our houses. That's why I gave my neighbours address!!!

LMAO! That's exactly what I was thinking, right down to the petrol bombs ;D. Although the chances of him coming to Australia are a million to one they say.

I was gonna send a few questions last night but I was too busy watching the thunderstorm. Mind you like Rusti I'm not sure Hines would answer questions about why his film didn't turn out the way most of us were hoping.

i find the fact he want to know peoples name and address rather disturbing. I wont give any person my details just to ask some lousy questions.
Under the UK's data protection act he cant have my details anyway not without giving an adiquate explanation why he wants them. yes he is in the US under Us laws, but the DPA protects UK citizens against possible ulterior usage of personal details.

It is a bit strange I must admit.
