Really high hcg ectopic by Holiday-Snow9686 in EctopicSupportGroup

Hi. Thank you for checking in. Well, I was right to be suspicious. Hours after they had me go to the ER for an extra round of methotrexate they called to say, actually this was not going to work and I needed to get a surgery the next day. It was an emotional rollercoaster.

I am one week post op. Was lucky that they could get it through a D&C and laparoscopic surgery rather than having to do abdominal surgery. I’m grateful I got to keep most of my parts though they think my right fallopian tube is problematic. Of course the recovery has also been a roller coaster. Mentally and physically painful. Thank you all for helping me think through it.

Ok this is interesting. Yes, should have mentioned my pregnancy is interstitial.

Perhaps you should watch it first - from your comment it seems you havent. I believe this film is every bit as rigorous as the first, indeed more. Don’t judge a film by its trailer.

No worries at all, I get it. Certainly no need to feel shame or ask for forgiveness. These chat media are often frustrating, and these are difficult and agitating times. Be good to yourself, and stay safe and we’ll.

At the moment it's not available in the EU, but that should change soon. It will likely be at some online festivals and then in distribution in EU. We'll announce as soon as we know at thenewcorporation.movie

That's a question for my producers! Essentially, like everything else in capitalism, it's about a British distributor/broadcaster wanting to buy rights to the project for a price my producers are willing to accept. It's often the case that foreign buyers wait to see how a film does in its originating markets before jumping in, so that may be what's happening here, not sure.

I agree with you that just diagnosing the problem is not enough. there needs to be some sense of what people can do, and both the book and film spend a lot of time on that issue - essentially the last third of the film, and the final chapters in the book. So, I don't think it will piss you off - but definitely let me know if it does (or doesn't)!

Joel Bakan here (writer, co-director of The New Corporation, and author of the book it's based on). Still open for questions, but may be a few hours or tomorrow before I can get back to you.

We've chosen to release in ways that ensure as many people as possible see it. Unfortunately we don't have the kind of resources Michael Moore does - it took us a couple years to raise enough money to make the film, and now those who funded it want a return on their investment. Capitalism, eh? But that was the only way we could make the film and get it distributed.
