I love how the newest fad for getting people to act in or crew independent movies is to release a line in the vein of "we intend to submit this film to all major festivals/Sundance/TriBeCa/etc." Check out craigslist.com or mandy.com if you don't know what I'm talking about. If you're making a movie, regardless of whether it's good or bad, you SHOULD submit the film to EVERY festival, including Sundance!
I intend to buy a new car, but that doesn't mean I'm expecting a free tune up when I get it. Intend away, good fiends! Intend to your heart's content!
