I had a thought the other night of Louis Theroux doing a doc on Chris. He's the only one that could make it good.

That would never happen, but if it did, good god bear, would that be amazing.
 
Is it wrong that I'd like to see David Attenborough narrating a documentary about "The Wildlife of 14 Branchland Court"?
 
I recall a time someone who did try to do a documentary once, and because it was clear that they were trying to use Chris as a way to personally profit financially and well, it didn't end well for them.

I'm not a fan of people who want to do a documentary about Chris and it seems they are usually doing so because they want to make a lot of money off of a documentary and/or increasing their rep by targeting a niche. Not saying it's bad to want to make money, but even those who are actually in contact with Chris refuse to use him to benefit themselves financially when they easily could.
 
The only type of documentary that would suit CWC is a Ken Burns style one. 8 hour and a half episodes, lots of slow zooms and pans on old photos while recordings of his rants played. Interviews with Serious People who have Important Things to say about Chris and his trials and tribulations. He's easily important enough to the entire country to have earned this.
 
I'd like to hear someone with a British accent do the commentary for the documentary.

Like http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... C_OQ#t=89s would be perfect, he has the perfect British accent for commentating something along the lines of some show on National Geographic.

He made a doom level... an infamous doom level which he modded like 99% of everything in the game.

This, but have it be about us. the people who follow/discuss Chris, why we follow him, and how it all came about. Chris should really be more of just a center-piece to that larger story.

"Because he's really fucking weird" would cover about 99% of us

I'd love to hear famous actors, dramatically read the various e mails, and chat transcripts.

Anyone who believes they're going to make money off a documentary, any documentary, is either as dumber than Chris or is Werner Herzog. Filmmakers don't go into documentaries because they wanna be rich.
 
Yea they do it to call out peoples BS, look at Morgan Spurlock, or Michael Moore ; Spurlock called out the fast food industry about their practices and turning people like Chris into fatties.

"The China Monologues"
 
Zero dollars raised. But I have thought in the past that it would be fucking FASCINATING if Werner Herzog showed up at Chris' house.
 
Werner Herzog should have trolled Chris back when the going was getting good.

A documentary-style psychological analysis of OPL narrated by a guy with a British accent?, i would fund that if it's done professionally and can bring some new stuff about Chris.

And a little bit off-topic, but everyone here should try that Doom mod, it's an unforgettable experience. :tomgirl:
 
I originally put this observation over on the LOLCOW forum, but will mention it here because I don't think it'll get noticed there:

Jessica Sideways has a 'friend' on facebook who claims to live in Charlottesville VA. Wonder if that has anything to do with OPL.
 
As I said on the lolcow forum, that's her uncle. :tomgirl:

What I'm wondering now is who Sean Akers is (he tweeted her offering to help), and what makes him claim to be "one of the worlds foremost experts on CWC."
