Oh boy, I guess I knew this might happen. The Santa Fe chapter of F.F.A.A.T. (Fairness for Androids and Trolls) has begun a protest against Zen & the Asteroid. Apparantly my Android abusing and Troll embarrassing ways have caught up with me. Who is this Torres guy and why won't he leave me alone ?
Below is a press release being sent to local TV and newspaper sources:
Santa Fe protesters fight against unfair portrayals of trolls and androids in science fiction movies.
Local citizens will be protesting “Zen & the Asteroid,” a film scheduled to be part of the Santa Fe Film Festival. F.A.T. (Fairness for Androids & Trolls) claims the movie negatively portrays trolls and androids and does not fairly compensate them for appearing in the movie. “Even though this film contains breathtaking special effects, hilarious comedy, and an all star cast we strongly encourage people not to attend this film”, says Gene Torres, organizer of the protest. “Besides, we would rather watch big budget Hollywood movies instead of something made here in New Mexico.”
The protest will take place Tuesday, December 6, 12:00 p.m. at the Santa Fe Film Festival Box office located at 1610 St. Michaels Drive in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Bob Alexander, local professor and troll expert says “Better roles for trolls. This movie embarrasses trolls and swindles their spaceships”. Torres adds “Santa Fe is supposed to be a place of cultural diversity and tolerance. Why are trolls and androids not included?”
