"The Red Pill" Documentary Extended Sneak Preview

Wow, this looks really interesting. They even got big red in there.

I like the filmmakers commentary of her uncertainty too.

For anyone wondering, this doc seems to be about mens rights advocates and not about red piller stuff. The title seems to be using that phrase in the general "uncovering the uncomfortable truth" sense.

EvilPundit · 2015-10-13T04:46:58+00:00

The main theme of the documentary is about a feminist looking behind all the hate propaganda, to see what the MRM is really about. If that's the narrative, then the different meanings of "the red pill" ought to be explained.

Since so many object to the current title, I wonder if we could come up with a better idea.

I have to admit I'm really looking forward to seeing this. I'm concerned about the choice of title, though. The "Red Pill" mindset emcompasses a set of beliefs markedly different from MRAs generally. Enough people conflate the two as it is. Titling a movie about the men's rights movement "The Red Pill" is like titling a movie about the the civil rights movement "The Black Panthers". It's just not accurate.

The filmmaker responds regarding the title of the movie

GreasedLightning · 2015-10-13T05:04:51+00:00

Very interesting. I'll definitely check it out when it's done.

RVallant · 2015-10-14T01:29:33+00:00

I'm weary of it. The stuff they showed about the men's rights seems very even-handed...

Then it switches to feminazis and holy fucking shit... Play a video of Himmler and the Nazis to some Jewish holocaust survivors. That's the vibe some of those "feminists" give off... That creepy "There is no debate to be had" smile as that woman rattles off the 'patriarchy' lines, look at her eyes. You can see it staring daggers of "you're straying from the Feminist line, you're gonna regret this..."

Creepy as fuck.

But you know what really bothers me? That the lead lady is 'doubting' and having a sudden epiphany about men's rights. I hope she does have that revelation and she realises that yeah, the guys do have a case, maybe feminism isn't all that.

But I have a sneaky feeling at the end it'll be something like "Yeah, men's rights have a point, but fuck em, feminism rules at the end of the day..." cos no one wants to really upset the apple cart TOO much, and that, is quite a scary fucking thought.

So, fingers crossed this documentary will prove me wrong on that matter.

"The Red Pill" is not a synonym for Mens Rights...not even close. How does a person producing a "documentary" about Mens Rights still manage to make the mistake of confusing the two?

It's like making a film about women entering the professional workforce and calling it "Back Door Sluts #9"

dicaparly · 2015-10-13T06:38:34+00:00

Whens the release date and who can I contact to talk to about being boots on the ground for local promotion of the film? Where I live there is a huge focus on boys and men right now and I would like to use that momentum to really push MRAs into the focus of the media. Having a documentary that evokes a reaction will really do that and I would love to be a part of it.

strps · 2015-10-13T17:48:59+00:00

I have reservations about this; I am as of yet uncertain as to the intentions being clear beyond a request for money. Once she gets the money, what, specifically, is she going to do with it? What is the actual intention of the production going to be? What kind of light will she shed on the men's movement in the end?

No one has published sympathetically on 'The Red Pill' as a name/brand yet (and as a polarizing concept and group it has real capital potential). Why would I want to contribute to someone outside the community gaining from the manosphere's IP? While I'm glad there's exposure, I feel as though someone is capitalizing on our work that isn't us. I don't think I like that.

iandmlne · 2015-10-14T00:18:05+00:00

wow, this could really be something.

Baldr209 · 2015-10-14T01:51:28+00:00

if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

augustfell · 2015-10-14T07:27:03+00:00

Even if this is sympathetic to the MRM, won't this just be preaching to the choir? Of does it have "swing vote" potential?

Xemnas81 · 2015-10-13T18:34:11+00:00

As far as I'm aware, r/MensRights dislikes affiliating with The Red Pill and its evolutionary psychology based misogyny, although they agree on the basic tenets of the feminine imperative as the feminist imperative. You may wish to consider re-branding.

equiposeur · 2015-10-14T17:58:42+00:00

This is another lie that MRM = The Red Pill, and will hurt the rights movement. The title speaks louder than any content of the documentary.

It looks like there are a lot of good MRAs interviewed for the film, but I'll bet they weren't asked whether they subscribe to the particular Red Pill subculture, because they would have said, "Hell no!"

SilverHoard · 2015-10-14T12:04:23+00:00

Looking forward to this.

I would like to see this made, and i pledged some $$, but they are a long way off...

eixan · 2015-10-13T19:39:12+00:00

Their wife wants to abort the child and they don't

SO? It's her body. She can do whatever the fuck she wants to do with it. MRA viewpoint on the subject is that they want the right to opt out of child support before the baby comes to term.

How did they make some of the footage in this trailer look even better then the source material? It's more cinematic or something
