They should really put this online so that a wider audience could be reached. I’ve been wanting to see it but I’m disabled and have a limited ability to get around town, so I can’t easily get to a screening. Even though I have a low income, I would be willing to pay to see it online. I bet there are many more people who would like to do that, too.
Or release it on DVD. I’ve been wanting to see it for over a year now.
it is a crucial time for it to go viral
