It would be absolutely incredible if the documentary included dramatizations of key christological events. I wouldn't be surprised if you could find a couple aspiring actors who would offer to play these roles, just to get to be in a film. There are acting enthusiast clubs all over the place.

I have visions of "Bob Walks In" being reenacted by Freddy Prinze Jr and Jack Nicholson.

Good to hear you're doing another one. If it builds off everything the original did it should be pretty excellent.

I honestly only need a good mic which is something I could be able to afford.

I can recommend one, if that's any help.

Look thee here

By far the cheapest studio quality mic out there. I've used one for a few years and I love it to bits. Just get yourself a pop filter and maybe a shock mount and you're good to go with a professional quality voice-over

I actually think a documentary on the subject of lolcows in general would be interesting - it's a new phenomenon, unique to the Internet, and not really one that's too well known by the wider world. It could still focus quite heavily on Chris, because he is arguably the best-known lolcow. There are a number of advantages to this approach as I see it:
1. We'll watch pretty much anything about Chris, but to an outsider a second Chris documentary would just look like more of the same.
2. There's a lot to talk about. What is a lolcow? What sort of person follows them? Why do some people become lolcows? What does this say about the Internet?
3. A broader subject means a greater chance of getting interviews. You might even manage to snag an interview with a lolcow or two.
 
The origins might be interesting. I think the first people who actually "collected" lolcows, though they didn't call them that at the time, would be the subGs, with the High Weirdness by Mail thing. (Most) cows hadn't found it to the net by that point, but a lot of the discussion was on Usenet newsgroups like alt.slack. alt.folklore.urban and later alt.usenet.kooks also followed the phenomenon.

Usenet (and eventually the Internet itself) rapidly became a magnet for kooks, who found an outlet where, basically, nobody could shut them up and they might even find likeminded crazies.

Then there was a phase of sites like SA, the chans, livejournal drama (eventually turning into ED), leading up to what we have now.
 
As an old, we definitely used to follow lolcows by reading their zines and newsletters, which we found out about through friends or through zines (Factsheet Five was the mother lode, but the SubGenius people also covered a lot). People wrote about them in alternative weeklies (Chicago Reader, Boston Phoenix, Village Voice) as well.

alt.usenet.kooks was absolutely a watershed.

Yea in the 1990s there was one guy named Dennis Falk on Usenet even though there isn't much on him, what he did back then was very telling, he actually stalked Tress MacNielle (voice actor from several cartoon shows and a few computer games)

Falk practically invented being a furry, or at least being a really loathsome furry like the ones who made it notorious.
