That abortion line sold me.
That guy loves his hair... by The Dum Guy	Jun 19th, 2007 08:19:33 PM
I'm most likely going to have to wait for this to hit video before I see it.
Looks good by lost.rules	Jun 19th, 2007 08:26:39 PM
Read a few rave reviews for this already.

It's "ROCKY" with a joystick!! by L.H.Puttgrass	Jun 19th, 2007 08:30:51 PM
Instead of red, white and blue shorts, Apollo wears a tie! Damn it! Where's this playing!
"I'll have to try losing sometime." by lost.rules	Jun 19th, 2007 08:33:05 PM
HAHA! That guy is a dick. I love this movie already.
I Don't Know Whether to Laugh or Cry... by Shub-Wankalot	Jun 19th, 2007 08:39:58 PM
But the movie has balls. And Donkey Kong.
Wow by miceli	Jun 19th, 2007 08:41:40 PM
That movie is going to rule. Like the abortion issue... wow. I hope the sequel is going to be the "WHERE ARE THEY NOW?" for the original Street Fighter II champions that sat in the arcade for days and days and days.
its sorta like the abortion issue by slappy jones	Jun 19th, 2007 08:47:49 PM
that looks like the greatest film of all time
Looks Amazing... by Captain Happy	Jun 19th, 2007 08:49:30 PM
I'll line up for this one...won't we all???

It had to be said.
Looks nice... by BicNowler	Jun 19th, 2007 09:00:33 PM
I'm also glad to see Billy Mitchell be exposed as the pretentious asshole I've heard(read) him to always be. Too bad though that some bigwig got it in their head to option this doc as a big-budgeted Hollywood-made feature film. Can't wait to see that one crash & burn.
A.K.A.: WHAT I USED TO DO ALLA TIME BEFORE I GOT LAID by Pound Sand	Jun 19th, 2007 09:09:06 PM
Can't wait for the sequel about the greatest players of Donkey Kong Jr. Oh, and these guys seem about as interesting to watch as World Series of Poker players. What a couple of uninteresting loathsome douchebags. (no offense, Mr.Mitchell)
WOW by Darth Thoth	Jun 19th, 2007 09:17:10 PM
When I first read the article I was VERY skeptical. I thought it was some nonsense Harry was trying to push onto us. BUT. THEN. I SAW THAT TRAILER! Oh my goodness. This has just vaulted into top 3 movies I can't wait to see this year status. Good one Harry. This flick looks great! Consider me souped!!
the abortion line made me choke on my beer by BadMrWonka	Jun 19th, 2007 09:20:43 PM
great stuff...I'll definitely see this when I can...
Its like The Wizard!!! by BAN	Jun 19th, 2007 09:23:44 PM
Only it wont suck! So Awesome, looking forward to it. Hell, id watch a movie about ANYONE who actually managed to finish "Impossible Mission" on Commodore 64. Can only hope it kicks of a trend for digging up old video game champs and what they are doing now.
Sweet Jesus. by MaxTheSilent	Jun 19th, 2007 09:38:03 PM
Another one from the 'You couldn't write this stuff' file.
does Jon Gries... by TheRealSeveren	Jun 19th, 2007 09:52:35 PM
make an appearance as King Vidiot?
porn star by Fineus Fog	Jun 19th, 2007 09:56:17 PM
that guy Billy looks like a 70's porn star or an extra from Days of Our Lives And he is a tosser
Great Trailer But... by MediaNerd	Jun 19th, 2007 10:19:58 PM
Heh, gotta love that trailer. That was probably one of the best sold documentries of late. But as much as I liked the trailer, I wonder if the 'infotainment' will be sustained for a full flick. Seems like it would work better as a short.
beautiful by pencil-man	Jun 19th, 2007 10:24:08 PM
I will watch this one. Wait, it's not coming to the midwest? Fuck the government!
This movie is Awesome by loonigrrl	Jun 19th, 2007 10:29:38 PM
I saw King of Kong in Seattle during their film festival a few weeks ago and it's hilarious. I basically laughed through the entire thing.
Buckner & Garcia doing the soundtrack? by Sir Loin	Jun 19th, 2007 10:35:04 PM
"Do the Donkey Kong" is wholly appropriate, naturally. And may I say I ruled at Donkey Kong, Jr. Hated those trap thingies.
I must see this by jimmy_009	Jun 19th, 2007 10:41:20 PM
And it's coming to my town. Gnarly.
missed this at BIFF by johnnysunshine	Jun 19th, 2007 10:47:11 PM
I missed this at the Boston Independent Film Festival some weeks back, but I heard a lot of people raving about it. I'll have to check it out.
classicgamenerd by proper	Jun 20th, 2007 12:05:11 AM
Thats the talk =>.I want to see this film,those guys are serious.
Damn you Billy Mitchell! by Orionsangels	Jun 20th, 2007 12:57:49 AM
You're a bully! I hope you go down in this movie! By the way. What do you think of, Pac-Man, The Championship Edition on Xbox Live? I'm loving it!
By 'Man-bitch' I assume you mean Billy Mitchell. by MaxTheSilent	Jun 20th, 2007 01:54:20 AM
'Cause judging by this trailer he is one honest-to-God BITCH!!! What a worthless fucking waste of life.
JESUS H CHRIST...!! by Greigy Just Wanted To Say	Jun 20th, 2007 02:14:34 AM
You guys REALLY need to get out more. Talk to real people, forget MySpace. NOT a worthy topic for a documentary... end of story..period.
PING PONG by conbarba	Jun 20th, 2007 03:34:19 AM

Nice Mullet by FILMFUNK	Jun 20th, 2007 03:39:06 AM
I'll be there for the hair-do's and the tiny drumming, Looks 80's sweet!
Um... late review much? by YouIgnorantGeeks	Jun 20th, 2007 05:22:59 AM
This was playing at Tribeca and pretty sure someone already reviewed it on that site from that... and I know its played and many other festivals even before that... I can understand reviewing it now, but acting like its little known and just out of the gate? I dunno about that... I have seen loads of reviews since April and know many people know about the film.... I wanted to see it at Tribeca but didnt get the chance.
Mega geek.. by Jack Bauer	Jun 20th, 2007 06:08:13 AM
Billy needs to see a style guru mega quick. If he walked around my estate looking like that he'd not last a mile.Still, he good at Donkey Kong and that's all that matters.....to him...
"Much like the abortion issue..." by LordEnigma	Jun 20th, 2007 06:18:14 AM
That right there got me into the threatre. I want to see the man who beat PAC-MAN. Get his freakin ass handed to him by a loser with a bunch of broken dreams. THIS IS MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY COUNTTTTTTTTTTRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY YYYYY!!!! That's right. Im taking it back to February.

FUCK THAT LOOKS HORRID! LIKE A STUDENT FILM by hatespeech	Jun 20th, 2007 09:38:21 AM
That is if it was a special education class. What a waste of fucking time.
IS IT TRUE?!? DO MY EYES DECEIVE ME!?!? by TheBaxter	Jun 20th, 2007 09:57:27 AM
did harry actually post an article that fails to mention eli roth, HD-DVD, OR his upcoming marriage? what is this world coming to?
Where's the documentary about Pac Man Fever? by SpyGuy	Jun 20th, 2007 10:04:29 AM
I'm goin' outta my mind...
saw this at siff by rotten666	Jun 20th, 2007 10:04:54 AM
best movie I have seen this year...run to the theater when It comes to your town.
This Looks Amazing by FlyingGuillotine	Jun 20th, 2007 05:03:26 PM
I'm crossing my fingers for another Grizzly Man.
wait, where are all the tb'ers mad about the Bush line? by samsquanch	Jun 20th, 2007 06:14:51 PM
Not that I miss them. At all.
You Have No Idea by Mr. Winston	Jun 20th, 2007 06:29:30 PM
Caught this at Slamdance. Trust me on this: you will never be so delighted. Just saying that it's am movie about DONKEY KONG and watching the trailer gives you no clue as to how engrossing this is. Never heard an audience babbling to effusively about a movie after leaving the theater. Equally, I've never seen people immediately, unequivocally hate a villain like they hated Billy Mitchell. Mark this down as my surprise pick of the summer. It definitely won't do anywhere close to Michael Moore money, but people will be talking about it for a while. Incidentally, the part of the movie that blew my mind the most was a short segment with a guy who designed special gloves so he could play MARBLE MADNESS without getting blisters...and then he admitted that sometimes he plays with his feet.
For FUCKS Sake! by Harry Weinstein	Jun 20th, 2007 08:59:08 PM
PING PONG is not a Hong Kong movie. Google that fucking shit, it's not rocket science. REAL geeks get their damn facts straight. That's a real bad habit around AICN - butcher the English language all you want, it's in a constant state of flux anyway. But do it armed with the real information, not inaccuracies. And now to actually read the review.
