However, your technical skills are good, particularly your sound work - just do it in 5.1. (I downgraded the AV because of the stereo mix on the mkv). "I will be watching your career with great interest" (particularly your ITW).

I honestly don't think you watched my edit with an open mind to the new version of the story.

I definitely won't be watching any of your edits, as I'd be too worried about pissing you off by giving a review less than a 9.

Whether someone has seen the source material or not, prefers a certain genre or not, or whatever other countless reasons, the viewer is going to bring their own set of perspectives to a viewing experience. Because they didn't enjoy the film/edit, or experienced it differently than you does not mean they watched it wrong.
Retorting with "you didn't watch it correctly" or "that wasn't my intention" or "you didn't understand my art" is a real turn off,and at the end of the day it doesn't change the experience for the viewer.
A great film (or edit) doesn't need a ruleset to guide the viewer through how they should feel. It either works or it doesn't. In this case, it didn't - for that viewer. Telling him he watched it incorrectly is the wrong move.
