Okay, so I got an email from Sprint last night... my submission cannot be entered in the contest.

From Sprint: "Thank you for submitting your Epic Mini Movie. Unfortunately, your video is out of the running. This doesn't mean we didn't like it; in many cases, it means that your video included a logo, song or product that we don't have permission to use. Feel free to submit another Epic Mini Movie at sprint.com/epic — just be sure to check the guidelines. Good luck.

—Your friends at Sprint"

I read this and said BULLSH*T!!! I mean, I know why they can't use other copyrighted stuff, but my video DOESN'T HAVE ANY COPYRIGHTED STUFF! My video is in the thread. Please, guys, go watch it and reply to me. I want to know what, logos, songs or products were in it.

P.S.: I'm not angry in any way at Mr. Bay. All I wanted to do was get him to see my work...

So I got picked, if you True Michael Bay fans want to support please vote for me

Here is mine that got rejected, we removed the music and then could not resubmit it. WE tired but the site would not take it. Oh well.

Exactly! All I wanted was at least a fair chance to compete.

If you had footage of those penguins and the bear responding I am sure it would have been in the top ten, at least! That is if it didn't win.

Super funny avatar btw.

Good camera work. You have my vote. If Mr. Bay gets to see videos, at least let's get his fans' vids to the top spots.


Anyway, I read that Sprint was rejecting some clips as a form of 'censoring' violence...

Well why not put that in the F*CKING guidelines of the contest??? If they were going to be picky about violence, they should have put it in the official rules!!! It's too late to do anything now, but I'm just really pissed off with Sprint. They seriously could have made things like that clear to the entrants.

P.S.: Mr. Bay, I'm still not mad at you. If you're going through this thread, it would be awesome if you saw my video. That's all I was out to do in the first place.

It's a pity that people outside the U.S can't participate... I've had a lot of great ideas for epic clips and I'm kinda sad because I can't participate and show them
But I wish the best of luck to all the S4TE's members that are participating

I logged onto YouTube this morning and low and behold, the advertisement:

Did anyone else know about this? It's BEAST!

Wow, thats really strange, the contest started Oct. 4 and they stopped accepting submissions on Nov. 1st...I hadn't heard a lick about it until I read it on this site today. ( I wonder who works in the advertising department.ha!ha!) The irony of it is that I've seen the Epic Kiss video a million times on tv. I really liked the Epic Villain video. Did they announce the winner yet?

No, the winners will be announced on the 16th of November. And it's weird, as I haven't seen ANY of their ads on t.v..

Awesome. This is the same crew who made the intros for YouTubers CTFxC and the Shaytards. They really deserved to win this contest.
