So I don't think I'll ever take the time to download and watch Prologue or anything else from his site, but I have to say that artists have to be thick skinned and willing to fail if they ever intend to succeed.  Constructive criticism should be polite, but should always be honest and complete.  Reading through the comments on his site, not only does Prologue receive nearly perfect votes, but so does everything else that Anti-matter has laid hands on.  It's like they think he's Jesus, come to heal the broken film, and once he has blessed it, all is perfect.  Either he is a far better filmmaker/editor than any established worker and should be getting a letter of invitation from a big studio any day, or he simply has some fans who are overly eager to please.  It is okay for people to dislike your art while others adore it, but to only allow opinions that make you feel good to have any voice ultimately cuts your own efforts at the knee.
