I submitted a review of the David Millin ASC film Shangani Patrol to this site last year in order to make people aware of the film and the activities and existence of the place I work for. That review has been read by over 2000 people and I have lost count of the amount of enquiries I've received at the NFA as a direct result of Andrew permitting it to be on this site ~ thank you, Andrew.  :cheers:

I googled the film's title yesterday and found a wikipedia review which is almost a direct steal from the review here, altered here and there, but not so much so that I can't recognize my own writing style.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shangani_Patrol_(film)  :hatred:

As far as I'm concerned, the review is no longer mine, but is the ownership of this site where everyone can look at it. Any advice, Andrew or anyone? I'm pretty sure I know who stole the review ~ it is the same guy who pirated the film and sold it on the net some years back.

Just add a source linking back to your own review (Well if it's online other than on a less-than-official sounding Badmovies.org :P ), or maybe replace the review with your own description of the plot. I'd imagine it's good that more people have some more info on this film.

For the latest on the fifth installment in Don Coscarelli's Phantasm saga.

Good advice Mr B.  :thumbup:  There you go Trev: stake your claim/plant the flag/brand that steer/retake the ship...simple, sweet and direct.

I've had screencaps stolen from my reviews put up on wikia sites, I don't normally care about images getting taken except the site shows up right above mine in google searches.  So I tried adding links to my site as a source, and got banned from wikia for a year.
