Well, this past weekend I went and saw a movie that I knew hardly anything about, but once I stumbled across it I knew I had to see what the big deal was. It turns out that The King of Kong is freakin great. On the surface it is a story about the two best Donkey Kong players in the world and their quasi-epic battle between each other.

That's what makes it so fun to watch! You can't believe the nerd factor that is just oozing from every frame of this movie. These guys take this stuff SO seriously. It is amazing, you gotta watch it.

HAHA I want to see this.

Also, I believe Billy is the #1 Pacman player as well.

I read an article about this documentary about a month ago and realized that I had to see it. I'm a big enough geek that this is very interesting to me, and everything I've heard talks about how amazing it is. I'm (hopefully) gonna see it sometime this week.

This was one of the funnest (and funniest) movie I've seen in FOREVER. The dopey down-on-his-luck hero. The somewhat evil and egotistcal black-wearing villan. The hideous pink-shirt wearing overweight toadie-minion to the villan. The nefarious back-room deals. The suspect tape. Everything!

The pacing of the entire film, and the editting of it was superb!

Did you stay past the end of the credits?

I think I saw most of the little captions of what happened to the people, but if there was something else after all the credits, I missed it.

Also, you forgot about the bearded hippie folksinging nice-guy video game referee!
