“Ngangizogcina lokhu kimi kodwa empeleni kubonakala kungihlukumeza ngalesi sikhathi (ayikho ipun ehlosiwe). Nginesiqiniseko sokuthi, njengami, nonke nihlaselwe ngezimakethi zokuthi “Ongahlanganisiwe” ezophuma ngoLwesihlanu. Njengoba i-trailer iphumile bengilokhu ngithola imiyalezo eminingi lapha nakuTwitter ukuthi i-backstory ibukeka njengokungqongqoza ngqo kwesici sami. Ekuqaleni ngayihlikihla njengoba inqwaba yefilimu idutshulwa kuSkype, okungafani neze nefilimu yami, kepha njengoba ngibuka kuyo ukufana bekukuhle kakhulu.

I-backstory eholela enyameni yefilimu kanye nomkhankaso wabo wokumaketha ilokho kanye esikwenzile nge "The Upper Footage", hhayi nje esenziwe cishe: Thumela ividiyo ku-Youtube yentombazane ehlukunyezwa ngemuva kokudla izidakamizwa / utshwala, thumela ividiyo ngokufa kwakhe, ukhishwe ku-Youtube, thumela ividiyo kwamanye amasayithi, setha amakhasi ezinkundla zokuxhumana ngesisulu, bese umaketha ifilimu njengokwazi i-Google umlingiswa oqanjiwe sengathi ubengokoqobo. (basebenzise ngisho ne-pixillation efanayo kepha ku-crotch yentombazane, i-fuck encane enhle oyikhonzayo ngesilinganiso esihle).

Ukukhiqizwa empeleni kwenziwe konke esikwenzile, kepha kwavela. Abazange badonswe ku-Youtube, akekho owayekholelwa ukuthi okuqoshiwe kwakungokoqobo, okuwukuphela kwezindatshana eziveza ngomlingiswa kuGoogle izinto ukukhiqizwa okwenziwe, azikho izingosi ezizimele ezenza amavidiyo noma indaba njengeyiqiniso noma yini.

Kuleli qophelo ungahle uthi “Mhlawumbe kuyenzakele. Wazi kanjani ukuthi bayibonile ifilimu yakho? ” Into efanayo ebengiyicabanga ekuqaleni, ngakho-ke ngabheka ukuthi ngubani owayengemuva kwayo, futhi yebo kwakungomunye wabakhiqizi abazama ukungicindezela ku-Upper, uJason Blum.

Eminyakeni embalwa eyedlule lapho imibuzo yayisaqhubeka ukuthi ifilimu yami ingeyangempela yini noma cha ngahlangana nalo mkhiqizi, wangimemela endlini yakhe ukuzobuka ifilimu. Lapho ngifika wenza sengathi akayazi indlela yokuxhuma ikhompyutha / i-hard drive yami ku-TV yakhe. Ngenkathi ngimazisa ukuthi ngiyazi, washesha washesha wathi kungcono sizobheka egumbini lakhe lokulala ngoba kwakumnyama lapho. Ngenqabile.

Ngemuva kokubuka le filimu waphuma egumbini lakhe, wangibiza ngokugula, wathi uyayithanda le filimu. Ngiphendule mkhulu, ngizokuxhumanisa nommeli wami. Ube esengitshela ukuthi akasebenzisani nabameli kuphela abathengisa abathengisi futhi wanginika umthengisi oyedwa azobhekana naye. Ngathatha igama, ngenza ucwaningo, ngabona ukuthi bebengabangane futhi basebenze ndawonye isikhathi esithile. Ngibona ukungqubuzana kwezintshisekelo, ngazisa umkhiqizi ngalokhu futhi akazange aphendule. Ezinsukwini ezimbalwa kamuva umfana ozwakala kahle kwifilimu yakhe waqala ukuthumela ukuphela kwefilimu yami ezinkundleni zokuxhumana, izinga lobuncane obungalilindele kumuntu okhulile ophumelelayo. Lokhu kube yindlela yami yokugcina ukubhekana nezitudiyo noma nanoma yibaphi abakhiqizi abazi kahle futhi kube yisisusa esikhulu kimina ukusabalalisa ifilimu ngokwami. Ngemuva kwalokhu ngikhumbula omunye wabangane bami engitshela ukuthi “uyazi ukuthi sekusele isikhathi ngaphambi kokuba lo mfana athathe umbono wakho awenze into ethile.” Ngemuva kweminyaka embalwa leso sikhathi sesifikile.

Njalo uma ngibona izikhangiso zale filimu manje kufana nesibhakela esiswini. Ukube bekungomunye umculi ovela kusisekelo bengingacabanga ukuthi kuyamangalisa, kepha akunjalo. Inqe elithile elingenabo ubuhlakani obufaka umqondo omuhle, liphenduke isigaxa, kepha akunandaba ngoba uzobe ehleka aze afike ebhange lapho abantu bephuma enkundleni bethukuthele ngokuthi babekhohliswa nje ukubuka enye i-movie e-crappy.

Utshani bami bokugcina bekule mpelasonto. Ngangiphezu kwendlu yomngane wami futhi wacela ukubona i-trailer yami endala, wavula uhlelo lokusebenza lwe-YouTube ku-TV yakhe, bheka, nanko isikhangiso esithi “Unfriended” sasidlala ngaphambi kwe-trailer yami. Ukube bekuyi-TV yami mhlawumbe bengizoyikhahlela. Bamaketha ifilimu yabo phezu kwe-trailer yefilimu abathathe umqondo kuyo.

Ukwengeza ku-fuckery, ukugxeka okuyinhloko ayenakho ngefilimu ukuthi ukuphela kwakumnyama kakhulu futhi izingane ezimbi azikutholi ukuqhamuka kwazo. Okuyindida-ke ukuthi le filimu yonke imayelana nabantu abayihlukumezile ithole usizo lwayo ngentombazane efile eyayihlukunyezwa.

Inothi elihlekisayo. Ngangibuyele ezinyangeni ze-NYC ezedlule futhi ngashayisa lo mfana emgwaqweni (lokhu kwakungaphambi kokuba ngizwe ngale filimu.) Sathintana emehlweni, wasaba ngokwesaba wathi sawubona, kwakungathi ubona isipoki, nangaphambi kokuthi ngithi igama ijubane lakhe elijwayelekile lokuhamba liphenduke i-goofy ebheka ukuhamba ngejubane futhi wasuka kimi. Ngangihamba nomfowethu futhi wangibuka, engazi ukuthi ngubani lo mfana, wahleka wabuza “ngabe lowo mfana ukweleta imali noma okuthile?”

Noma kunjalo rant phezu. Angazi ukuthi kukhona yini ukuziphatha noma isifundo kule ndaba. Mhlawumbe kuzothatha ukubhuqa kwakho okokuqala ngoba uma ungakwenzi bazoqhubeka beze. ”

Ukuqondana kwezinto noma ingabe uCole ungene entweni ethile lapha? Bheka i-trailer ye Izithombe Eziphezulu ngezansi, bese uqonde kuVimeo ku bukela yonke ifilimu. Ngemuva kwalokho, sikumema ukuthi wakhe impendulo yakho kulowo mbuzo, bese uyilahla esigabeni sokuphawula ngezansi.
