DarkSydePhil (DSP) Documentary by Mike Clum - Interested in being involved in a film on DarkSydePhil? Want to share some ideas you'd like to see in the film? Message me!

[DiabeticSydePhil]

I don't care what anyone else says, I wanna see A Week in the Life of DSP. Just a behind the scenes look at his setup, habits, what he does with his time off, him and Kat eating dinner together, etc.

It'd be fascinating because we never get clips from inside his house or life anymore like we used to.

 

[The Penultimate Warrior]

I know nothing of Mike beyond the Boogie documentary, but I seriously doubt he'll fall for Phil's lies and make a puff piece. The only people who do are at the Derich or Jayde level, even most of his fans will come out with the "it's not my business what he does with my money" line. If he does a Louis Theroux, he can come across as sympathetic to the subject and let them expose their own idiocy naturally.

 

[Ching_Chong]

@mikeclum Whether this has or hasn't happened yet and since you talked with TJ about anything WWE Champions related, but.... if he has/hasn't offered to show his account to put those rumors to rest, it is too late for him to debunk it claiming it is or isn't him. His one and only chance was on the Sidescrollers interview (again, highly recommended you watch it) when Craig offered to confirm these claims. He denied it multiple times during the interview and any chance to prove otherwise has sailed.

 

[Derich 2nd of coomland]

He'll just say that he stopped playing after the Side Scrollers interview and deleted his account, thusly proving that downfromtherafters isn't him. Sound good? Ok then

 

[Mr. Brown]

I believe that as well, but seeing as it would be easy to check when the account was created, it would implicate him even further.

Only if Mike is autistic enough to know how to do this.

 

[Wasabi Panda]

This might be the "interview" version of going from the KoF15 vanessa melt down to the SF6 meltdowns where he thinks capcom is throttling his connection cause he's too good and they make the japanese frogs gay. Just SS was KoF and this could be Sf6.

It seems like Mike knows how to deal with ego maniacs, just telling phil what he wants to hear, let him think he's in charge and every idea is his idea. Phil is dumb but egotistical, he's easy to manipulate from tut to LSB larping he was going to buy phil's statues to khet and Ryan. Hell phil gas lights himself with his "show" and how "the entire internet is talking about" something he did. I can't see it being hard to string this literal idiot along.

Which is funny cause the DSP subreddit is calling mike an opportunist, and if he is he's taking advantage of someone dumber than him for his own gain...sound familiar? I see no problem here.

Phil will either titanic this and be so hard to work with Mike bails or Mike will get phil's head so big he won't care or be too stupid to know whats he's saying and like GTG said, give phil enough rope, he'll hang himself

Right now phil is high on his own farts, he's getting the thing he loves the most, attention and someone bigger than him kissing his ass. In his little mind he think's he's cock of the walk, he's a big man that this big-time Netflix like documentary is going to be about so all the internet can see and will watch in amazement.

Now if @mikeclum wanted to talk to anyone from the FGC Tony Cannon, I would love to see how tony feels about phil's revisionist history between the two AND the literal slander phil has made and continues to make about tony and GGPO

 

[FamicomGorby]

Who cares about hit pieces, or WWE Champions or any of that.

I want to see an artistic DSP documentary.

Phil on a windy beach near Seattle. Wind blowing in his hair: “This is where I go to clear my head… When it gets too much with detractors and streams. Nothing like nature to remind you of what’s important ACK! ACK!”

Phil waddling around in the Snort Fort with Khat, loading some statues on to his little handcart. “We’re off to toys for tots. Khat and I believe in charity, and this is one I hold dear to my heart SNORT”

Probably the best we can hope for. Phil has had next to zero human contact for over a decade, any extended time with him will just show how much of alien he acts like.

 

[LostMy1stAccount]

I'm still sceptical about whether any actual in person "documentation" will happen let alone any visits to the snortfort.
Yeah sure, Dave is talking big right now about all those things that he plans to show in the documentary but as I understand it right now, the whole thing is just in the "early talks/infancy stage" and nothing is set in stone yet.
I seriously can't imagine Dave letting someone come into the pigsty and letting them see all the garbage they piled up.
Even if he would have the "last word" about what they would be showing from his house.

I fully expect the whole thing to get cancelled in a couple of weeks and Dave saying that Mike "tricked him" and he was smart enough to see through it before enough damage was done to "hurt his family and business".
Then, any mention of the documentary and Mike will get leaned and get the "detractor meme" treatment.

Remember that this is the guy that was too afraid of posting honeymoon and wedding pictures because he thought some detractor would jump him and his horsewife.

 

[Yung Dalph]

One big red flag for me is Phil claiming he will respond to the detractors Mike is talking to, therefore having the last word. That is a big problem, even if you don't consider that he's a self absorbed narcissistic shit bag. If Phil wanted to respond to detractors and get feedback, he could easily do so. This will be his way of "debunking them" and showing they have no merit in what they're saying about him, and he will get away with it unchallenged.

For the sake of your credibility, do not let this happen Mike.

 

[Corpun]

Listened to a little of Phil talking about this and holy shit even if this does end up being a nothing burger that rehashes old shit it will still be great. Phil clearly sees this as the new way to sell his story to random people who don't know him, and will try and make it as much of a sob story as possible. He also is going to possibly interact with detractors, most likely just by responding to audio or text of what they said to tell his side. This will be nothing since we can all tell what he will say for shit like "Why did you flag detractor channels" and shit, but he will easily open himself up once he admits to knowingly letting fans of his mass flag detractors and not telling them to stop at all.

He's done this before and stated this and how he has no power over them to try and absolve himself of the crimes, but Mike will probably see this as an opening to get him to dig a deeper hole for himself as he exposes himself as a toxic piece of shit who tries to absolve himself of any wrongdoing. Not only would this expose what we all know, but would instantly tell any non-dents who never heard of him how much of a scumbag he is.

Phil is fucking delusional if he thinks any amount of creative control over this documentary will paint him in a good light, not because he would be too demanding, but because Phil lacks any ability to read the room due to his stunted social skills and will see every word that comes out of his mouth as a good thing. I'm willing to bet he has completely misinterpreted what having control over the documentary looks like and will sperg out once it comes out and he realizes his 'suggestions' for edits could be entirely ignored.

This is really lining up to be The Interview 2.0 and with whatever handshake agreement they have in place I'm expecting to see LegalSydePhil come out in full force once he starts to sperg out over it.

Here's a question that I've not seen be brought up and that's how will we know if there's a difference in what is finally published and what Dave claims to be the version he has this so called last word in? Also another question of Mikes reading is on your Boogie video how much footage did you have that ultimately didn't make it to the final cut?

 

[Lord_Point]

Im all in on a puff piece doc. Just take phils word at face value on everything and present the world though the batshit insane lens of a deluded hermit.


Dave talking about net code; cut to cannon brothers wearing dashikis and yamakas, dry washing their hands, and telling capcom how their new net code will force good players to always lose.

Give me a 15 minute reenactment of the shopping cart incident, phil waddles around the store, black and white filter, sad dramatic music, and a voice over from phil explaining how horrible it was to find someone took his cart of unpaid groceries.

100% he’ll have a fake WWEC account ready to show Moike after last time.

100% chance he plans to have a fake account by then. But because dave is fat and lazy and retarded im sure he will put it off until its too late. Im thinking when mikecum ask for the WWE account, mid interview, dave will offer to email pictures of his phone later.

 

[Brownshirt Freshman]

I don't think so. He easily could have done it before sidescrollers and didn't. You have to understand just how lazy this guy is. Even for something that could clear his name and get a big W over trolls he still won't even put the slightest amount of effort. If it does happen it will because he sees these posts and gets a dent to set one up for him.

I've said it before, but someone should make a mockumentary showing that Phil is a great guy and the trolls are wrong, but play it absolutely straight. Like get someone from the FGC to rewatch a match and admit they only won by mashing jab in lag, or a programmer stating that under 30ms ping makes a game too fast to respond to.

Exactly this.
If you can get to film Phil's daily life, just let him ramble and then present it to the mainstream public as the delusions of a shut-in paranoid schizophrenic.
I highly doubt Phil will let you into his life if you as much as ask him a "controversial" question.

 

[Impossible Brutality]

I don't think so. He easily could have done it before sidescrollers and didn't. You have to understand just how lazy this guy is.

The thing is, he will never swap the account. Why do you think he’s NEVER bought a new phone in years despite being a prolific coomer? He is too stupid and petrified to lose access to his WWEC account (and whatever else he’s whaling on).


DSP is lazy as fuck, as you said, with that being paired with how retarded he is, there’s almost a zero percent chance of him faking an account.

The chance of his addiction being lost to possibly getting outed as a scamming cunt means nothing. Addicts choose themselves no matter the cost.

 

[arrivefriday]

The interesting part to me is how he's going to explain away the WWEC stuff in the doc. I wonder if he's going to pull the "i have no idea about the 5k, but it got approved so it's legit!"
To any normal-style adult-style non-retarded-style human, no matter how you spin it, it's going to look shady as fuck. Paying 5k/month in business expenses when you don't even know what those expenses are is asinine on a cosmic scale and when you factor in that there's a pretty substantial amount of evidence that points towards you being a complete degenerate gacha addict it'll look even worse.
I'm excited about this documentary not because I think it'll prove anything about his gacha addiction or whatever but because he's finally going to get the fair shake he's been yapping about for so long, and the fair shake is going to amount to nothing, because it'll just set in stone just how much of a cunt Dave is and has always been

 

[We Are The Witches]

Only if Mike is autistic enough to know how to do this.

AKA saving a bookmark, yes, let's hope this professional reporter knows how to do that.

---

I know he will tell Mike that he has received "legal" advice to not disclose certain stuff, which obviously includes itemizing the microtransactions (without lying or being vague).

This docummentary is not going to be live anyways. Without being live, DSP will not crack because he is not under immediate pressure, so it's going to amount to the same "arguments" and excuses.
Only if Mike is knowledgeable enough and does some form of uncut (raw even) interrogation, then it could be interesting.

 

[Brownshirt Freshman]

For the sake of your credibility, do not let this happen Mike.

Who cares if he gets the last word? If that's all it takes to make this happen I'm all for it. Any sane person seeing these allegations and him only responding "it's not true cuz I said so" will not believe him.

 

[FormerPro]

@mikeclum Just make sure you record EVERY conversation and interaction you have with Phil. If it doesn't end up going his way (or potentially even if it does) he'll likely get on stream and greatly embellish or outright fabricate conversations you've had.

Exhibit A
