Cowboys in paradise documentary

This was already posted in the thread about DVDs, so I thought I would repost in case anyone missed it.

I thought the promo trailer was pretty funny. Someone on the baliforum is outraged by the movie and has started petition on facebook to boycott it.

this might be better.

I am glad to see the responses to that post. Some of the stuff going on the FB page is just ridiculous and in fact following a post I made on there I was contacted by the producer for any insight I might have as to why there has been such a back lash. For what little I could offer I was promised a copy of the dvd when it comes out.... :mrgreen: so if illegal copies don't make it here maybe I can have a screening for you all :lol: (the film is not going to be screened in Indonesia)

There's a bit of a bunfight developing on the "Cowboys in Paradise" Facebook page. It seems some people are not so pleased with this so-called "documentary".

Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing what all the fuss is about. :P

:D :D :D

Looks hilarious! Can't wait to see the complete movie! Hopefully it doesn't shame the locals too much though, that should be reserved for the grubby old dragons that make use of their services (regardless of them being male or female).

By the looks of it one of the people kicking up a stink is married to one of the guys in the film. Boy, that coulda opened up a can of worms...... :D :twisted:

Adam, I see more "young chicks" than "grubby old dragons" hanging out with these dudes - anyway, who cares? The film is funny, and some of the lines used by the cowboys are almost as old as I am.

i really don't see what the problem with it is!!

if it hadn't been this group of guys that was filmed it would have been another group!! Kuta cowboys exist whether people acknowledge it or not!! i know a few from years ago and the stories they told would put that movie to shame!!

and on the flip side, i have been called a 'holiday whore' by tourists in the street when i've been out and about with tu - these people knew nothing about our story or situation yet didn't hesitate in being instantly judgemental!!

yeah,people tend to judge a book from the cover(me included sometimes)but calling someone a holiday-w...., thats harsh to say the least charlie. The way i see this whole cowboy thing..its a trailer,meant to get people talking about the movie,making them curious enough to go see it..wouldnt be surprised if it was just that,something preplanned to create a fuzz.
I think the movie will be fun to watch,and for people who come from abroad its no surprise, these kinda boys one can find in every touristplace that has a beach,and even in citys that dont,hahaha.
