          Great documentary! One of my favorites also. The extras are very good. I go to FUNSPOT every couple of months. That place is great! I love arcade games.

              I loved that movie. Also, the Onion AV Club rocks. The comments are always hilarious.

                  I saw it as a rental on Amazon so I haven't seen the extras yet. Loved the movie though and will definitely add the DVD to my collection at some point. On a side note while I already had too much pallned for this year I'm hoping to actually make a trip to Funspot in NH next year. That place looks awesome!

                      Great movie. Billy Mitchell is so over the top it's hard to believe he's a real person.

                        It is a great movie. I haven't watched it for a while but will do so again soon.
