Just re-watched this last night for like the 10th time and it never loses steam for me. Just a great fucking documentary all around. If you were to tell me that I'd be enthralled by watching 2 guys fight over the title of "Best Donkey Kong player in the world", I'd probably punch you in the dick. But goddamn is this entertaining. I know they are actually filming a movie based on the documentary, but no actor could play Billy Mitchell. He's just such a douchebag yet is completely real. Go check this out if you haven't seen it yet. I promise you will enjoy it.

Re: King of Kong
Speaking of docs, have you ever seen Darkon? It's about people who dress up and act out role playing nonsesne while taking it waaaaaay to seriously. I watched that a few days after watching The Bridge, one of the more depressing things I have ever watched.Blog Time! http://plasticlovin.blogspot.com/

Re: King of Kong
Out of all the documentaries I've ever watched, I've never wanted to personally punch someone in the face so badly as Billy. What a fucking dick.If I were Shé, do you think I'd be operating a taco truck? Shé brings hope. Shé rights the wrongs. Unfortunately, Shé is a myth.Comment

Re: King of Kong
I just watched this, I was enthralled. Definitely a great documentary.
If Billy Mitchell doesn't get the lifetime achievement award for the Biggest Douche, PLEASE tell me who does? Wow.
Also, check this link out for a follow-up to Rob's regarding Steve's re-try:
