The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters

I realize this isn't exactly the most active section of Southperry, but I just saw this movie and I must recommend it to my favorite Maple community.

 summary from imdb.com

In the early 1980s, legendary Billy Mitchell set a Donkey Kong record that stood for almost 25 years. This documentary follows the assault on the record by Steve Wiebe, an earnest teacher from Washington who took up the game while unemployed. The top scores are monitored by a cadre of players and fans associated with Walter Day, an Iowan who runs Funspot, an annual tournament. Wiebe breaks Mitchell's record in public at Funspot, and Mitchell promptly mails a video tape of himself setting a new record. So Wiebe travels to Florida hoping Mitchell will face him for the 2007 Guinness World Records. Will the mind-game-playing Mitchell engage; who will end up holding the record?

If your local video rental store has this in stock, go watch it immediately! (If not, uh... go download obtain a legal copy of it?) It's absolutely brilliant, hilarious, and amazingly enough, a true story. It's so epic on so many levels my brain almost exploded. I cannot adequately express in words how truly awesome this movie is.

Seriously guys. Go check it out.
