    If you do rent the DVD and the cover has a dude playing DK on the front, pop the front cover out and check out the Scott Morse illustration on the inside of the jacket. It's awesome.

    I wanted Wiebe to be the man. But he was too busy being a crybaby.



    Sure it was competitive, sure it was a big deal to him, but he teared up like three times during the movie. Man the fusk up, dude -- it's Donkey Kong.

    He's a superhero AND in touch with his emotions. Deal.

    The good thing about documentaries is that it doesn't have to be black and white.

    Billy Mitchell was/is a jag. Wiebe is an OK dude but kind of a weenie as well. He spent an insane amount of time playing an old videogame because he was unsuccessful as an athlete and seemed to have a rather mundane suburban lifestyle. He then got asshurt when the videogame community did not embrace him with open arms.

    Billy Mitchell cheated.

    Wiebe set the record with his son whining and yelling at him the whole time. As a parent, I can appreciate that level of focus.

    Watching "Chasing Ghosts" right now and I am totally shocked to see that one of my co-workers is an interviewee in the movie. He has never let on at all about a past as a video-game badass so I can't wait to ask him about it!

    Maaan that part where his son was yelling "I need you to wipe!" had me rolling. Real dads know the deal.

    Really? Hope he's not the guy with the crappy life story (sped up for comedic effect).

    haha, no. He actually comes across as one of the more well adjusted interviewees in the movie, although we generally consider him to be kind of a flake. He's the guy who wears sunglasses in his interviews. He has never mentioned any of this, and since he was in the movie I don't think that hes trying to hide his videogame past. But for some reason I feel like I should ask him about it before I tell everyone else at work.

    The King of Kong had a certain bias because the Mitchell guy just wouldn't cooperate with the film-maker. Mitchell played with Wiebe a couple of times without any cameras around. He reclaimed the record while playing in front of some mortgage brokers convention or something a couple years ago.

    My local spot had all their copies displayed this way. You're right, it IS awesome as is the documentary.
