Aaaaaand another 7k in the last 3 hours. Vroooom!

[fish]

417,728
or 421,736 if you believe the YT search.

I can't even do the maths on that one.


As Snapsie will attest from her "The Local" experience. So many people who "comment" are cretins.

The foulest net trolls can often be found on YT unfortunately.

[DMt.]

Still, 400,000+ views in 40 days = 10k+ a day; c'est pas mal, non?

The haters & phobes seem to be getting told where to stick it, too, which is nice

[DMt.]

529,245...in 45 days...equals, er, rather more than 10k views per day [average of 11761]...

I showed it to my folks [85 and 82] and uncle Eric [76] on Sunday; my Dad seemed to be reading the paper mostly [I think subs are difficult for him visually], but Ma and Eric and I were all glued. First time I've seen it on a largish screen. I do hope I get to see it at a cinema someday!

Eric said it was "very poignant" ; I can't recall Ma's comments, but none of them were shocked or disapproving. Which is cool.

[DMt.]

560,874 today... Another 30,000+ views. In a day!

This is ramping up...560874/46 = average 12,193 views per day [though I'm fairly sure the views-per-day are increasing, this is just the average since June 1st].

I couldn't resist it any more; I know it's stupid of me, but I just had to comment. Fucking YT morons need it spelled out in words of one syllable.

[Cheevers4ever]

what are you counting DMt?

[DMt.]

YouTube views, at the single link you sent. Currently running at 2,000+ views an hour...

[fish]

580,856.

Not difficult to spot the intelligent comment there Dave.
You have more courage than I venturing into that lions' den.

[DMt.]

Ta fishie. I was braced for a shitshower from the YT haters&phobes, admittedly.

But I got a fistful of Likes instead.

True fandom here,

[DMt.]

Ohhh yeah... NdP is right there with FA/SML and LTROI on my desert island dvd's list.

597,933 today [I'm trying to check around the same time every day for consistency].

If I'd left it another hour or two, it'd be 600,000...in just over 6 weeks. What a pity Celine and the girls won't get any revenues from all these views! Though I guess the PR is worth something...?

If I was in Koch Lorber, there'd be fresh stocks of the DVD going out like yesterday [or even a month ago].

[DMt.]

If, like me, you enjoy trying to figure out the language in NdP and other French films [I even d/l'd the non-verbatim French subs], this site may interest you too, particularly the section on informal/slang usages;

[DMt.]

Like a proper busybody, I just emailed Koch Lorber, to flag up the interest being shown and urge them to make the most of the evidently-increasing numbers...we'll see.

I do hope they don't go the other way and insist on it being taken down...

[DMt.]

627,535...and it's still there, so far...
