I'm sure my pseudo true headlines are enough to make you want to punch someone in Wii Boxing, but that doesn't change the fact that you still looked! To reward you, I'll divulge just what movie I'm talking about.
The King of Kong (imdb (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0923752/)) was originally released as a video game themed documentary at SXSW (http://sxsw.com/) by in March. The movie is about two men vying for the Guinness World Record high score on the arcade version of Donkey Kong (http://www.themushroomkingdom.net/games/dk-arcade). The movie was a huge hit, and now New Line has hired screenwriter Michael Bacall to pen a feature film adaption of the documentary. New Line and Bacall are looking to dramatize the film's main subject matter, making it more "hollywood" than "Wario's Woods". If you are a fan of the original, do not dispair, because Seth Gordon is back to direct the feature film. If you have never heard of the people I've mentioned in this post, I'd suggest you spend some time on Wikipedia (http://www.wikipedia.org) before commenting.
Honestly, I can't wait to check out this movie. 10 coins for people who go and snap photos of themselves wearing DK shirts. Don't worry, I'll remember come August....

/me gets his DK shirt and prepares his bank account for ten 1933 Double Eagle coins. See you in August.

Do you make all the Photoshop pieces at the tops of your topics, or spend hours looking for the right ones?

On certain stories, if I can think of a funny image, I'll try to make it :P

Man, making a plotted movie out of a documentary seems like a really really bad idea to me.
-
I think it's already been done a few times.
-
There's already a big controversy about the accuracy of the documentary, so if they turn this into a feature film, I see several lawsuits in the future.
-
I don't want accuracy; I want hot-rolling barrel action!

Well you should play Star Fox.
-
No no, that's hot-barrel rolling action. Completely different!
-
Oh, I see that now. whenever I see "barrel" and "roll" together, I think of barrel rolling.
-
/me stuffs SolidShroom in a barrel and rolls him down a very lethal hill.
-
Bp, you actually put him into an exploding barrel. *Barrel explodes at bottom of hill*
-
How would you know?/me stuffs SushieBoy into an imploding barrel and rolls him into space.

Wouldn't an imploding barrel in space (with a person inside) stay the same shape?
-
Not if the person inside it implodes with it.
-
Explosive decompression!
-
haha, I can't believe I completely ignored this topic when I made that new one.
dang it I feel like and idiot.
Anyways, I'll give it a watch when it comes out. An interesting thing to make a documentary out of something.

You're among friends. :)

I watched the Youtube trailer.
The background music is 'Teenage Wasteland', how fitting, lol.

You mean "Baba O'Riley".
