Guest VioletX Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) You guys might be interested in this... I talked with someone who is in the documentary and they said that Minnow had used no costumes props during their portion of the film and that they would not have had funds for sophisticated CGI. My contact also indicated that Minnow wanted contrasts in it's choice of researchers, referring to Dyer, that they have won BAFTA awards and would do what they had to to make an excellent film. Lastly, the person said that the tent video was either a costume or the real thing. Edited February 4, 2013 by VioletX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest blackbriar Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 According to the Minnow films website they were making the documentary for BBC 4's Storyville, I don't think they would have any need to do any promotion if its the BBCs.

Rockape Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 JackiLB, the thing you must know is that hoaxers hurt any of us that have had experiences and have tried to get the truth out. I have been ridiculed and I have had people make fun of the fact I have had experiences and I work with researchers on a daily basis. I have good friends that have caught a lot of flack for being involved and every time there is a hoax revealed, it makes those of us with real encounters look bad. I have "skin in the game" from that perspective. Oh, and I sholuld mention.....I have met and consider myself friends with Christopher Noel. I have no reason to doubt he has seen something, but that does not mean I still don't trust RD. KB Plussed that one KB. You are spot on. Dyer and these sort of things DO damage the bigfoot community as a whole, that is why it is best to totally ignore him or anyone who makes these claims UNTIL they produce bonafide evidence.

Guest Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 What you make of the posting on RD blog of the cyberstalking? Is this a way to go into hiding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest njjohn Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Yeah, it's easy to say this doesn't effect me, so no big deal either way. The '08 hoax got so much attention and there were people so fooled by it that when it was revealed, many left the scene. They just were tired of people like Dyer, making it harder to get any real progress in the field. I think hoaxes help the community by pushing for greater scrutiny, but it still hurts the community overall because it pushes some very valuable people in the field away from it. Hope is a great motivator, but the sting of that hope being betrayed is greater than failing. As to CN, he says he believes it's true, but has given no reason why. It's all speculation to the reason. He's right that 2013 is a big year though. As to the answer in #7 - of course his own video would be his biggest experience. That woodpile footage is superb. And I don't think he'd take a big hit on credibility for saying he believes. He's never pushed it. Just like Jacki and Violet wouldn't take a hit. They might get discouraged, but only the people directly involved have their credibility truly brought under fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbhunter Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 So what is your take on this KB? CN has staked his reputation on RDs story being true. Not just part of the story but all of it. Do you believe it based on CN's word? I have not asked Chris this directly but my belief would be Chris did see something he believes is true. Chris is a good guy and I have no reason to doubt him at all. All I am saying is I DON'T trust RD. He is a "trickster" and I know he hoaxed the enitre media in 2008.

Guest VioletX Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 What you make of the posting on RD blog of the cyberstalking? Is this a way to go into hiding? Read a comment from racer X from that post, he was basically saying it was not he, not sure whether RD had pointed a finger at him... I never thought of that angle Ihylda,lol.

Guest Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) There is a lot of chatter on the web this am. This week is a big week!

Guest Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 There is a lot of chatter on the web this am. This week is a big week! Yes a very exciting week EXCEPT that even if Musky comes back saying 'yeah' and even if his description passes all the tests with dotted 'i's and crossed 't's', people will still not trust him account LOL...I still think RD should get Kate Middleton or Oprah to view the body. I dont think anyone would say that they are his shill! hahaha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 There are a lot of interest in this, not just the few of us here. I think we will be seeing it on the news soon! What are you talking about? - the mapcap cyber stalking quick getaway theory or that Musky may be about to witness his very first Bigfoot? I have not asked Chris this directly but my belief would be Chris did see something he believes is true. Chris is a good guy and I have no reason to doubt him at all. All I am saying is I DON'T trust RD. He is a "trickster" and I know he hoaxed the enitre media in 2008. KB You know, when I think about it, I will be more upset with Minnow if this turns out to be a hoax rather than RD. My personal worst fear is the thought of Minnow producing a horrible hoax bit to their movie that pokes fun at the crypto-people out there. BUT I just dont believe that they would do that. If they do, I'm emigrating! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB He does seem like a good guy and seems to be well-respected in the BF community, which is why I was very surprised to see his post here way way back saying it's true. I do find it suspect though that he is not saying why he thinks it's true. It's not like he's holding onto a big secret. RD has been flapping his gums (as Skyla says) about this for months.
