Again, do some research.  The Wild Hunt is gathering rave reviews at the festivals it has been shown at... last count was 90% positive from viewers I believe.  Gve the public some credit for recognizing fiction from fact, and accept the fact the hard-core conservatives are always gonna hate on us, so who cares what they say anyway?

At this point in time, any recognition in mainstream media can only do us good, look at Role Models, Monster Camp (and all related LARP documentaries), etc.  All of which, while being recognized as off the beaten path, have generated a lot of LARP interest and mostly good will.

Now if (when) the day comes that some nutjob goes crazy in real life, and starts carving people up in his LARP costume... well that's gonna suck.

I can see something where half the people are "it's a game' and they get burned or hurt or etc, and these other guys are psychos.

It seems its just one rogue faction in the trailer that goes nuts.  Looks like it might be good though.
