KerplunkxCreak Posted April 4, 2009 Author Posted April 4, 2009 Really think about what you're going to write. You need to make a list of pros that you might include in the letter to make it sound better and get your point across. One letter on it's own won't be able to do much justice unfortunately. So we need as many people as possible to make a huge difference.Yeah, I mean...I have to think first what I have to write..But I won't sign it just with my name...I think I wrote about the HLAHG Group and GDC....Anyways, I'll need help.
IscoredWaddlesgoals Posted April 4, 2009 Posted April 4, 2009 But like I said above, we just seem to be going nowhere. I'm sure Andres said (on facebook ?) he'd put this on the front page and it's still not appeared. I don't want to give up, but outside of this thread and a small number of people on the forum, no one seems too bothered. We need everyone !

So we need as many people as possible to make a huge difference.So should more of us write letters do you think? I was going to write one to Warner when we first found out about this, but then it seemed like the general consensus was for a one big letter type of thing so I've held off doing it yet.I don't have facebook so I'm not sure if I've missed anything, I'm kind of confused as to what's going on with this. I really want to help if there's anything I can do.
Take me to Christie Road Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 I think it would be really beneficial to have one letter that was well written, professional, and that covered all the points for why HLAHG should be released, put a space for a signature at the end and post that up for people to print off and do a mass mailing of it to Warner. It could be a petition that everyone could sign, just individually rather than an online thing. I think actual mail would be more likely to grab Warner's attention rather than an online petition.
sabrina3000 Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 thats awesome, but i think it would read better if the 'where are we goin?' bit was on the left, and the 'to warner' bit was on the right, i think it would read better that way.oh yea your right ...but...i did it that way because tre just seems like he would say that by the look on his face ...and billie looks like he knows where he's goin' and he's gonna do anything to get there ...lol he's concentrating..ya know?

I mean, being honest, I have any profesionality lol I think the letter who wrote Nicoleta was great, but if you want you can try to write one....What do you think?

IscoredWaddlesgoals Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 I've already posted the letter I wrote on here and asked for feedback, but apart from one or two exceptions, no one said anything. I can post it again, but I do plan on sending it on Monday so you'll have to be quick if you've got any objections/ideas.
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 ^ I thought the letter was perfect, no need to change it, in my view..
IscoredWaddlesgoals Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 If I don't get anymore feedback by the end of today/early tomorrow, it's going. Also, I think we need a big push next week. We know the band (or at least Billie) are aware of this, so it would be nice to hear from them or at least John. We can't just carry on going round in circles !

We know the band (or at least Billie) are aware of this, so it would be nice to hear from them or at least John. We can't just carry on going round in circles !Don't worry about it! It's fine, I couldn't really write better myself because sometimes I find it hard to express what I wanna say through words as I feel that my vocabulary could improve a HELL of a lot more to what it is now.Anyway, I agree with that. It seems to be the same fucking people in this thread and that somewhat pisses me off. I guess we're the only ones who are willing to do things to get this noticed by Warner as hot property.

It seems to be the same fucking people in this thread and that somewhat pisses me off. I guess we're the only ones who are willing to do things to get this noticed by Warner as hot property.It looks like people are only interested in the album/new single. For me though, it's not just the dvd, it's that some fans got to see it while the majority never will. The fact that it appears everyone involved (including, I presume the band) knew beforehand pisses me off even more. It's the principle if anything - they snub us with this knowing that in a few weeks, we'll be buying albums & tickets etc and lining their pockets even more. Can they not just tell Warners to get it out if they know how pissed off we are ? After all it's their music. *breathes slowly after rant*
green_melly Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 of course I'm intersested in the new single/ album! BUT i think about HLAHG everyday since we heard that it won't come out on DVD! I WILL DO ANYTHING TO GET IT OUT!
Foxboro Hot Tubs Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 well, I have to say I really don't just care about the new album and single. and I'll support everything to get HLAHG released!!what would be if we all send warner brothers the same letter... we could write one together. a really good one. then everybody prints it, signs it, takes an envelope and sends it to Warner Brothers. than we should spread the letter and get as much people as possible to join this "Operation HLAHG"Letters are more effective in my opinion than an e-mail, I agree.
amy_runs Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 ^ I like the name of that. And I too agree, personal letters would be more effective. Actually, let's send letters AND emails.

A mass influx of the same letter, signed by many different people and sent in from many different places is more likely going to grab their attention than something done online which they could very easily ignore.

Thats why we're focused on working on the online part right now. We need a way to gather people together.

amy_runs Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 Warner doesn't even need to release it on DVD. If they just put one up for download on the internet, they wouldn't have to deal with anything about making physical copies, selling them in stores, etc. It would be much easier
Fuzz Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 Distributing a movie online is pretty pricey as well, but totally possible (netflix streams thousands of movies. iTunes sells downloadable ones.)That would really be a nice compromise. Though it's not easy for everyone to wait to download a huge file.
