Thanking all attendees and collaborators like Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, the post instantly generated a flood of reactions from fans worldwide. Many shared their experiences in watching the film; one called it “like therapy in a cinema” and really enjoyed the “behind the scenes of Eminem.” A funny comment was left on one of the pictures about “a very tight hug, hostage situation,” which was followed by another wave of hilarious responses. A few even claimed there was genuine fear in Eminem’s eyes, while others said it was pure enthusiasm.
It was a life-changing experience for some attendees. One called it “the best day of my life”; another had just stepped out of the theater also felt awestruck as the film had opened up a whole new perspective about the artist: “You have been my inspiration and my support since I was a teenager,” another very emotional comment came from a person from Mexico. Most such comments had a similar feeling affirming that the movie increased their respect for Eminem and the influence of his music on their kids’ lives.
The international response came as strong at the Greek fans acknowledging that they were not alone in their country to love that rapper. Meanwhile, Spanish-speaking fans literally begged for any news of a concert for Mexico, jokingly demanding a “button” to shut it up.
Not all comments, though, were lighthearted. One user questioned the need for plastic surgeries and advised Eminem to “age gracefully.” But most of the conversation was laden with appreciation and spectacle of calling him a “beautiful human.”
The ‘Stans’ documentary – the movie about the sort of mad devotion that defines Eminem’s fan base – has succeeded in touching hearts. Be it from laughter, melancholy, or simple admiration, these responses are solid testimony to the influence the rapper has had. Intending to bond Eminem’s fans with his music down through rankings well with emotions, the first screening proved that for sure.
