American Jedi Documentry
I think you will find that this video does do that well thenAtticus wrote: Haven't had time to watch yet, but I may have differing expectations than some. I would never expect any documentarian to depict things the way the subjects themselves want them depicted. That wouldn't be a documentary in any meaningful sense, and I'm not interested in seeing a 90 minute infomercial for Jediism (well, I mean, I would watch the sith out of that, but it sure isn't what I expect from a "documentary"). I know enough about the director's work to expect that he would take a subject that could easily be ripe for ridicule (see the unfortunate match-up of Daniel Jones v Piers Morgan yesterday-ish) and find both the truth and the heart in it. I hope that's what we get.

People are doing that: Knights of Awakening, Jedi Realist Radio, prolly more that I can't think of atm, all have semi-regular broadcasts. Lots of other members, Opie included, have done one-offs or occasional livestream meetings that are much like interviews. To say nothing of dozens of vlogs and podcasts.
(EDIT: 1K. Or M for the Latin scholars, I suppose.)

Not talking about general vlogs, heck I have my own vlog youtube series, I mean like using the american jedi documentary title so to speak to continue as a new fresh series in trying to keep to the same style as the movie to kind of capitalize on the same marketing so to speak, a "continuation" I haven't seen much interview stuff this year out of all of those its been a minute or two since I've seen any of those come around.

Thanks John. I am hopeful that the film goes viral. I personally believe it reflected the community well as a whole as well as the individuals listed. It defiantly showed who people are. You know you are free to call me.
I am looking forward to seeing feedback from Alexander Orion after all the trash he talked about it a couple years back.
