Hey BP, you're just as much at fault at this point. If Robin's family has been asking for this to stop, you're making the problem worse, not better.

They were asking people to stop sending the video to them. They objected that the video was portraying a painful time of Robin's life. But they did say he was talented. They didn't say they shouldn't make a biopic.

Just to add that Zelda Williams has asked that people please STOP sending her this on social media. It's hurting her to see it, no matter how clever it is. https://twitter.com/zeldawilliams/status/1448018948021055490?t=LrZaEo5C-ZWZL1gZuIFJFQ&s=19

Why would ANYONE think it would be a good idea to sent it to her? Seriously... how utterly clueless would you have to be to think that was a good idea.

I agree with the last few comments. My dad just passed last year n as much as I love to see photos n videos of him from his old friends.... sometimes it's just too difficult to look at. So I couldn't imagine seeing some stranger impersonating my father while a bunch of other strangers tag me in the videos n they rally to make a whole movie about his life. If the family isn't for it then leave it alone. But I also don't agree with ppl still sharing this story even though the family has asked to stop. Maybe let this one fade away BP
