"Mansome Movie" - Morgan Spurlock interviews Spex and Dr Feller for Male Grooming

[Spex]

Guys - please do not let this topic degenerate into a BS saga. I have stated what the movie is about and the fact how we got involved and the fact we might not even be in it. Everyone take a chill pill.

It's a comedy look at male grooming ...

Thanks EJ.

Spex everyone knows you are one of the few good guys.

I looked up Mansome and it looks to be a funny cast. The hangover guy, say no more!

I hope you guys don't sabotage this thread with your playground BS, like we see so many times.

No one is questioning Spex. Read his book and all his posts. He has done more for the industry than most and helped 1000's in the process. Myself included.

Keep up the great work Spex.

Spex the phrase “too many does” not single out anyone. It means exactly that too many bad guys and not enough goods guys. I want to see more written and seen about the slimy under belly of this industry including how many of these forums operate. These young guys come here and eat this shit up because they don’t know any better. Let’s talk about that and we can include the doctors out there that feel its okay to sue their patients because they don’t like what they have to say. These doctors either did crap work or they didn’t fully inform the patient on what exactly to expect covering all the bases. That’s what happens when they try too hard to sell the procedure.


The money grubbing scumbags in this industry know who they are I don’t need to point them out. I know many in the industry do not like what I have to say and would like to paint a happy face but that is not be completely truthful.

Topcat - Any genuine Hairloss sufferer would understand how you must feel. You have my respect and I wish you the best. However, I feel compelled to have Spex's back here. The guy has taken time out to help me and several other guys at NO benefit to himself on numerous occasions. Granted, there may be few "good" guys, but he's one of them.! Also, the guy is taking proactive moves to get his message out there in a positive fashion. There is no reason why you could not do likewise. I for one would be interested in seeing an expose on the industry, I just think Morgan Spurlock is addressing the subject from a wider viewpoint.

no worries Chrisdav as its `you` who is asking ...

it was Louis Theroux = ` under the knife ` BBC 2 shown on the 26/06/2007

Catergory Factual and Arts TV

[chrisdav]

What programme was that ejj?

[ejj]

no worries , my mistake, my thoughts were that it may be similar to the film made about the fast food industry ( mcdonalds ) he didnt do `ronald` any favours !.... and i thought it may be a kind of similar ` fly on the wall ` documentary about hair transplants/ industry , hence the input in the first place .

I saw a documentary channel 4 about male cosmetic surgery , facelifts , hairtransplants, stomach 6 pack implants, bicep and pec implants pretty scary really what people do to so called improve there appearance , most resembled someone who had been stuck in a ` wind tunnel` for a few hours !

Frightnening what people get sold .

I hope the film is good and informative , i hope its a big success and beneficial to anyone considering hair restoration

TopCat are you imply i'm a money grabbing scumbag coz im employed by the industry ?

S

King Topcat speaks! You must be a money hungry scumbag Spex, King Topcat, King of the forums said so.
All hail King Topcat, King of the forums!

[Spex]

Guys,

The segment we are involved in, even if its included, will possibly only be a few minutes long, if that and will very much generalise Ht's when performed right. They will not be going into the dark political world of hair transplants and distressed unhappy patients who hate the industry. Spare a minute to look at the cast involved... It's not that type of film.

TopCat are you imply i'm a money grabbing scumbag coz im employed by the industry ?

[topcat]

EJJ I agree and while they are at it maybe include how some of the hair loss forums operate. How the information is massaged by deleting posts or banning posters. And might as well include how too many in the industry are money grubbing scumbags along with those they employ, of course not everyone but too many. Sounds like a good angle to me.

People love sensationlism and it draws and holds more viewer eyes. Let them watch the train wreck and see how it all happens.

[ejj]

Hi Spex

Looking at the McDonalds film Im led to believe it forced a few changes within the fast food industry, a repair patient may be good to showcase as its the extreme lengths they have already been to, so to speak , just a thought really or perhaps that could be a seperate film altogether

[Spex]

Chris, Joe is a mensch thats why

Ej, Ummm.. not at our day filming at the Feller Medical office. I know you personally have been f@cked over by the industry personally and had issues with particular clinics/docs of late but the film on all accounts is a look into the extremes men and especially celebs go to and their grooming habits.

[ejj]

this sounds good , i wonder if any part of the film will interview patients where things have not gone to plan and they are a lot worse off , like those documentaries , face blacked out , actors voice used ,etc similar to the recent UK breast implant scandal so the patient can really open up without fear of being banned, or legally threatened , that would be a scoop !

happy easter

Jotronic, you are one of the very few classy guys like Spex who compliments on other clinics achievements.

It takes broad shoulders to compliment a competitor, thats why few do it and I admire the people who do.

Spex and yourself are a credit to this entire industry and other clinics should take note of that.

Spex and yourself get a lot of kudos for your services and rightly so.

That is why I have a lot respect for the pair of you.

[Spex]

Thanks Downunder

Good luck and next time I'm in London I'm tracking you down for that beer that we've talked about. I might even try to make the big meet up next month if I'm welcome.

Cheers Joe. I would love to have a beer mate with you - it's long overdue

I dont know anything about big meet up up next month, no invite either.

Whenever you are over here next let me know as be great to get together

Regards
Spence
