This Sunday... Will You Be A Witness To History? Because I will! THE KING OF KONG and Steve Weibe working to break the record

Hey folks, Harry here... back in Austin. God it's great to watch DVDs, HD DVDs, sleep in your own bed, not have anywhere to go each morning and live life as a good geek does. One day at a time. Today - I got a call from Seth Gordon, director of THE KING OF KONG: FISTFUL OF QUARTERS. Now - as you probably know... THE KING OF KONG opened today in theaters across this mighty big country of ours. It's being heralded by some idiot critics as a COMEDY. It isn't. It can be seen as funny, but THE KING OF KONG is a story about fair play, being the best at something, anything... it's about DONKEY KONG. Now - the established critics of this country are all a generation removed from DONKEY KONG. They had no unifying PINBALL machine... they're the children of the Hula Hoop... we're the bastard children of Mario. We understand how hard it was to play DONKEY KONG - and never dreamt the road was as long as it was. We never knew about kill screens. But the film isn't just a generational film - its a metaphor for every body that ever wanted, trained and fought for something. Well - you could see this film... right now. Here in Austin and just about every major city in the U.S. But this SUNDAY at the Alamo Drafthouse South on South Lamar at 7pm - we're screening THE KING OF KONG: FISTFUL OF QUARTERS with Steve Weibe in the house. Not only that... But after the screening and the Q&A with Steve Weibe. Walter Day or "TWIN GALAXIES" will be presenting Weibe with his Guinness World Record award... and then after that... Steve will be unleashed upon the Alamo Drafthouse's DONKEY KONG original Standup Arcade machine for a Guiness run on the record - sanctioned and observed by Walter Day. It seems that Mitchell recently broke Weibe's record - and did so on the up and up... No doubt - this is why Weibe is going to make the run on the record again at the Drafthouse this Sunday. Where he will be witnessed by the founder of Twin Galaxies... and at the very least - Tim League and Yoko and myself. I want to see magic in person. The original DONKEY KONG machine was purchased in Atlanta by Tim League - to have at his theater during the run of THE KING OF KONG. I can't wait. Surely you'll be there if you can. I just want to see the effin' kill screen.
