And, in some cases, from what I read on reddit and other places\u2026 even threatened to call off the date if they did take them. I know of one chick (of the militant feminist variety, my favorite kind\u2026) who literally cried during the \u201cbig reveal\u201d part about Amy Dunne and her diabolical machinations.<\/p>\n<p>She just couldn\u2019t handle it, unfortunately.<\/p>\n<p>And, neither could a lot of others, from what I hear tell.<\/p>\n<p>And the reason the movie got this reaction is because of the secret storytelling method I talk about in the November \u201cEmail Players\u201d issue, I talked about earlier today, and last week in these diabolical daily emails.<\/p>\n<p>A secret I have not seen anyone in copywriting talk about.<\/p>\n<p>(Much less teach.)<\/p>\n<p>And you know what else?<\/p>\n<p>Despite this reactoin (and, I would say, because of it\u2026), \u201cGone Girl\u201d went on to do almost $400 million at the box office, on a $61 million budget.<\/p>\n<p>Not too shabby.<\/p>\n<p>And I talk about this method in exquisite detail in the November \u201cEmail Players\u201d issue.<\/p>\n<p>But, to get it you have to be subscribed.<\/p>\n<p>And, even more importantly, subscribed by the looming deadline tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>To get it in time, go here right away, while there\u2019s still time:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.EmailPlayers.com\"><strong>www.EmailPlayers.com<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Ben Settle<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More lessons from the movies: One of my all-time favorite movies is \u201cGone Girl\u201d.
