Will E3 See a New King of Kong Crowned?

I really hope he takes it.

Go Steve!  Can't stand Billy Mitchell..

"Go Steve!  Can't stand Billy Mitchell.."

Billy Mitchell is a punk. he's intimitated by Steve Weibe, thats why he doesn't want to compete with him in the movie. I would like to finally see this shit go down with Steve and Billy at E3. this could be epic if they could pull this off.

Well, there's nothing particularly wrong with Billy Mitchell. The documentary was edited in a way that made him look like an ass."

God damn this is going to be awesome.

this is awesome

I am entirely open to the idea that it was edited to be more entertaining, but you can only edit so much. There has to be some ass-like stuff to edit."

God, i fucking hated Billy Mitchel after watching King of Kong. He really is a fucking weirdo with his trophy wife and his fanboys that control the record books.

(lol i'm with you there that its better than wrestle mania, this will be epic if Weibi wins it on live TV and they shove the cameras in Mitchell's face saying "HOW DOES IT FEEL!?!?!"

STEVE'S THE MAN! DO IT, TO IT!

I agree with the fact that it was edited to make things look more stacked against Steve than they really were, and make Billy Mitchell look like more of a dick than he probably really is, but you can't deny that some of the stuff he said was arrogant as hell, regardless of how it was edited in.

King of Kong was really great.  I can see how Billy was probably put into a worse light than he might deserve.  My mom thinks all the people in the movie were acting, she can't believe they're all so nuts.

Wait, I thought Wiebe broke the record. Or does it have to be at Twin Galaxies hosted event?

"Wait, I thought Wiebe broke the record. Or does it have to be at Twin Galaxies hosted event?"

Hope he makes it.

Awesome!
And to put my asshole hat on: Twin Galaxies is Guinness Book-appointed, not self-appointed. DUUUUUUUUUHHHHH.

Steve did beat Billy's score after the movie was out, but then Billy did take it back.  Therefore, this is an attempt for Steve to set another world record.

I loved the movie and I can't wait for E3 now!

Entertainment at the expense of making someone they're not? That seems to go against the very definition of what a documentary is."

I doubt Mitchell will show up. There's never been any proof that he actually got the scores that he did.

It doesn't matter if Steve takes the record because Billy Mitchell ALWAYS has a plan.

I thought at the end of the movie, during the little epilogue thing, he showed video of him beating the record. So he had the live and recorded records.

Loved the movie.  They should make a sequel of him trying to beat the record again.

STEVE! STEVE! STEVE! STEVE! STEVE!

"That seems to be what you inferred earlier, and now you're finding it redicilous.

Explain."

Screw that! I want to see Billy Mitchell and Bob Pelloni in a cage match. The documentary comes later: Billy and Bob: 100 days.

AWESOME i hope Steve wins, i haven't seen the documentary yet but I've read about it.

"They should make a sequel of him trying to beat the record again."

This is a bust if Billy Mitchell isn't there.

Fistful of quarters was awesome, and I really hope Steve takes it. I choose to totally buy into the drama created by the documentary, and so in my world Billy Mitchell is the videogame devil and must be defeated.

Best of luck to Steve.

I've heard they're working on a sequel to King of Kong, so it'd be cool if this was part of the sequel, which is probably is.

The infamous and immortal, Billy Mitchell.

This

is

something

I

have

been

waiting

for.

"This is a bust if Billy Mitchell isn't there. "

Go Steve Wiebe!!

Billy Mitchell is the perfect arch-nemesis, but I want him to keep the crown. He has so much more personality than the other guy. No offense, other guy.

Come on Wiebe, you can do it!!

It's all for nothing if Walter Day isn't there as well!

Fistful of quarters was a great documentary and I thought the the good guy vs. bad guy set-up was unecessary. I wonder what the intent of the film director was.... I mean most people see a DVD box with an arcade machine and the description it had on the back don't want to know anymore. So portraying that plot doesn't really pander to the audience who is going to buy or rent this movie anyway. The way I sold the movie half-time (I worked for a local dvd rental chain) was explaining that Mr. Wiebe was right here in Redmond and the documentary "totally" has shots over by the local QFC - haha.

I guess I have to be the one to say it first  but, COME ON! Billy Mitchell is a bad ass!

If anyone hasn't seen King Of Kong yet I really suggest you go out and see it now, very good film. Mitchell is so arrogant, he thinks he owns the world, but he doesn't, he's a dick. Go Steve!

This is going to be fucking epic. I hope Steve breaks the record.

The ultimate face off!

I'm almost more excited to see this showdown than I am to see the new upcoming games for the year.  I loved that documentary and I am totally rooting for Steve all the way.  Is that documentary sold anywhere?

For some reason, Billy Mitchell scares the shit out of me.
