MUST SEE THE MOVIE ON DORJE SHUGDEN COMING!
Some are for and some are against King Dorje Shugden. The point, HE IS POPULAR!

The 'chinadorjeshugden' blog in your list is an ANTI-Dorje Shugden and ANTI-New Kadampa Tradition blog. Thankfully, it seems to have been short-lived as no new posts have appeared in over a year.

Hey, anyone know what happened to the Dorje Shugden movie? The link no longer works, which is worrying.
A couple of years ago someone claiming to be a part of the movie wrote to me about doing camera work for them. I posted about it on the forum (http://www.dorjeshugden.com/forum/index.php?topic=753.msg8777#msg8777 (http://www.dorjeshugden.com/forum/index.php?topic=753.msg8777#msg8777)) saying that I thought the message was odd and perhaps a sign that the movie isnt going too well (I mean, if it was going well, why would they still be looking for people to do camera work?). I got a snippy response from the person who had seen my post on this forum, saying their message to me was sent in confidence, and was not a reflection of the progress of the project.
Then on 20 July 2010, they posted this message on their Facebook page to explain why they were shutting down the page:
Dear friends,
Many people are working hard to get this movie done as soon as possible.
Too much awareness and talking may create obstacles. Getting in touch by using the email address below is no problem, feel free to do so.
Since we were asked to, we will close this facebook site in the next days if u wish to receive information or sponsor the project please write to [email protected]. When the movie is done we can have a new facebook site
Your Dorje Shugden Movie team
Now the website link doesnt work anymore, I dread to think about whats happened to the project and if what I had posted about came true. How can too much awareness be a bad thing? Otherwise, how are we going to publicise the movie? Has anyone heard anything else from them?
-
Things are on hold, keep praying.

A Big applause to the team behind this increasing effort in creating more Dorje Shugden Blogs and making a Dorje Shugden move! Thank you Dorje Shugden practioners! I love you!!!!

it's very sad that the movie seems to have hit a brick wall. I was chatting to a couple of the guys involved in the movie and they were telling me what was going on and even let me be an admin on their facebook, then when the incident with DharmaDefender happened, they cut me off too, which i still don't understand to this day.
I think that they were probably under a lot of pressure with the issues at hand plus the financing for the movie plus there was some secrecy around their movie and the guys seemed a bit paranoid (perhaps rightly so, considering there are real security issues with the anti-Shugden brigade!)
I hope someone will resuscitate the movie project though - it would be a blockbuster!

Oh dear Wisdom Being that does not sound good? I really was so looking forward to the "movie". It had brought so much excitement as we anxiously waited for every piece of update. How unfortunate. And I don't quite understand about not creating too much awareness... I mean if you don't create awareness, how are we going to help and support them??? This is really sad news.
If you don't want awareness then why even bother creating a website in the first place? I hope nothing major has happened to them in any bad way and I honestly hope the movie team is still working on it. There is so much to tell the world and through this movie it will just explode and bring Dorje Shugden to a whole new level of awareness and the ban will just be a thing of the past!

@emptymountains Anti-Shugden or not, I'm happy to see more Dorje Shugden websites coming out! At least people care enough to talk, and you know what they say... "Bad Press is Good Press"!
@gomchen Are you saying that because you know something more? Are they really on hold?
There's still time for the Dorje Shugden movie. Perhaps it's kept low key and when the ban is lifted, they'll release it and it'll be like the 2nd Big Bang :P

Oh dear this is sad indeed. It is kinda sad to see this sort of thing happening personally, because if they were really Dorje Shugden practitioners, they would realize that obstacles will not be able to hold them back for long and that they would carry on for the sake of many because Dorje Shugden's benefits can reach out to many people who actually need it such as people who are stuck in their spiritual practice, or people haunted by spirits and other such examples...they need Dorje Shugden. If the movie was done with this motivation in mind and with the blessings of various Lamas, I am sure it will go on...lets hope someone else makes the movie.

Don't worry, the movie has not been abandoned. :)

Thank you so much for the update on this. Most of us have been kept in the dark about this movie project as you can see here, so some details about what is going on would be most appreciated. It would be nice to have our hopes up as to what is going on with the movie, not because it its about Dorje Shugden, but because of how many people that movie can benefit and how many people who actually need the protector's help would actually be able to gain access to that due to the kindness of the people who brave obstacles to get the movie done and to help many.
-
The movie has the blessings of many lineage Lamas who have encouraged the movie to be made.
The people involved in the movie may not feel it is appropriate to discuss the details on an internet forum.
I am sure more news with be forthcoming when the time is right. :)
-
Yes i had heard then that there are several Dorje Shugden Masters behind the movie which is fantastic. I trust the lineage lamas and if they think that there should be no publicity prior to the production then we should respect their wishes. I am sure everything will be revealed in due course and that everything IS about timing! Patience is a virtue i shall have to practice more at LOL!

WOW! I am extremely happy to hear about this! A movie with the blessings of lineage Lamas will go very far indeed! Well I guess we'll just have to be patient. If the movie is released before the ban, it will accelerate the lifting of the ban by a lot and many people will be able to benefit from knowing Dorje Shugden in their lives and have their problems alleviated by Dorje Shugden. I cant wait for the movie to be released, or some details, at least on what is happening! Do update us when possible!
-
I do hope the movie has not been abandoned as the website link does not work. I have checked some of the blog sites and they are quite interesting but I do not really like the chinadorjeshugden site as it has a lot of lama bashing. Using speech to hurt others is a surefire way to end up in the lower realms.

A big thank you to the team or teams behind those wonderful websites ! You guys are tireless , i must praise the commitment and creativity behind it all . And all of this is done , to keep this wonderful practice alive , when others just complained and did nothing. As Albert Einstein said : " The world is not full of evil because of those who do wrong. It is full of evil because of those who do nothing."
May the Protector whose time has come bless you all with the strength and courage to complete this much awaited Blockbuster , may all your obstacles be removed and all that is conducive prevail for you all . Om Benza Wiki Bitrana Soha.

I really hope that whatever obstacles that the movie team is facing will be cleared and may there be updates or reports soon because what they are doing is good work. With the blessings of Lineage Lamas and the like, as well as the protector's blessings, i am sure they can do it. Perhaps, they should have an audience with the protector to find out how to solve their problems, or at least ask a Lama for advice on how to solve their obstacles for the movie...but when something very good is about to be done there will always be obstacles because of the benefit it can bring.

Don't need so much details actually. Need more suspense to know an estimated time it will be launched ... just like any other movies. The suspense creates excitement. Helps to promote and make it a success as well. ;D
Anyways, for a movie to be professional and well-made, it does take a lot of time, talents and funds. So we shall wait patiently, but absolutely looking forward to it!

As Trijang Rinpoche had said, it is best not to bash either Dorje Shugden or the Dalai Lama so we should heed that advice/approach. There is no need to trash the Dalai Lama, but it does not mean that we endorse his ban on Dorje Shugden either. The movie has not been abandoned yet but it is said to have to remain secret for now due to the surmounting amount of obstacles that is causing the movie project to be delayed. But I am sure that with the blessings of the lineage lamas and from the protector himself, the obstacles will soon pass and the movie will come into fruition. Lets hope that the movie will soon manifest.

I am so looking forward to the completion of the movie! This is going to be very beneficial to anyone who has doubts (still) about the practice of mighty Dorje Shugden! I am even more excited for this ‘release’ knowing that this will certainly be a hit among the Shugden-pas! Many thanks and kudos to the team behind this production and may it come sooner for the benefit of many please! May it be a hit upon it being released and the CTAs will be watching perhaps! By then I hope they will finally come to their senses and stop harassing Dorje Shugden practitioners!

I am very excited too because the benefits that people can draw from this movie is immense. It would educate people about the truth and facts behind the Dorje Shugden controversy as well as dispel all the lies that arise from the CTA as well as various people who distort the truth just to appear to be right. Understandably, such an undertaking would mean that there would be a lot of obstacles as people would draw immense benefit from it. I really hope that the movie would come out soon!

Production Updates?

Production Updates?
The producers are supposedly laying low for now as there are obstacles that prevent this movie from manifesting at the moment, and purportedly this is advised by the Lineage Lamas. So as of now, nobody has any info on the progress of this movie yet, but we should have it soon I hope, because the ban will be lifted soon after all and by then the impact of the movie would not be as big as it would have been or could have been if it was done while the ban was on. So yeah, I do hope for some news.
