    I was also annoyed to see that the movie couldn't just be downloaded. This implementation was not disclosed in the Kickstarter that I contributed to.

      I'm loading and trying to view it right now through the Flux player but my video has like a green tint over the picture. Anyone else have this issue?

          The movie is funded by the community to spread the words.

          Now it turned into a movie which only people already in the community watch.


          I don't know if 100% of the budget is from donation.

          If it is, this movie needs to be free.



          Maybe full financial disclosure?

            Are you able to play the itunes version without using that flux player?
            Why are you guys using flux player and not just watching it through itunes/Apple Video?

              its probably some obscure encoding/encryption on the hd download so you have a hard(er) time trying to redistribute.

                This is what happens when your DRM scheme gets in the way of user experience.

                Yes.

                iTunes HD/SD version for $12.99/$9.99, and a rental for $4.99/$3.99.

                Just bought the HD version on iTunes. Already saw it in theaters, but would like to have a copy to share with others.

                *Note: iTunes videos also use DRM, but it does not require installation of additional software. Generally movies purchased on iTunes limit you to authorizing them to play on 5 devices.

                  This DRM crap just makes me think that the guys who put this together didn't care so much about the pro gun message, and cared more about getting money to fund a project that would further their own agenda as film makers. The only people seeing it now are those that are already invested in the cause. If they really wanted a broader audience they would release this on Netflix , or some other streaming site to get it out to the masses, where it would do the most good.

                      DRM is only a minor hurdle. Google is your friend. However, it would be a lot easier to just spend a few bucks and buy a version that works on your preferred platform.

                          $$$ That's why

                          Then there's the whole "free" issue. As in: I once put an older, but perfectly good refrigerator in front of my house with a sign that said "FREE" it sat for a week. Then I replaced that sign with one that read "$50" and it was gone in the morning.

                          But mostly $$

                            I paid full price for my dvd signed to show full support

                            I got it on their website it was 20 something shipped for the signed copy of the DVD.. Wow did it really jump up to 50 dollars?

                            I showed the DVD to my co-workers they were just say educated by it! its an awesome movie!

                                I would love to get a free copy. I have a number of 20-30 something non-shooting/non-gun owning men in my life that need to see this.
                                karma ?
                                The blessings I experience every day are far better than the wrath I deserve.
                                Thankfully, there is no such thing as karma.
