This is up on video on demand in the USA. (itunes etc. ) Folks from outside the US will have to wait a little longer. (think it's released in Canada on 20 April, not sure about other territories.)

Sorry Carl but that was really funny.

Just finished watching this. As someone who has never been to SDCC, it was very entertaining and interesting. As kind of outlined in the trailer, it follows four or five individuals and their reason for attending, some with more camera time than others. Morgan Spurlock himself isn't seen once, which I was kind of surprised by. Any nerd at heart (that is to say, anyone here who's reading this right now) should definitely give it a watch.

Thanks to this thread I'm in the middle of the movie right now (rented from iTunes.) Absolutely loving it, and I've never even been to Comic-Con (although in younger days I attended many Star Trek and Sci-Fi/Fantasy conventions.) I'll get there some day...

Ditto to the Capital D! A friend & I watched it while sdcc was going on this year so we could get some kind of satisfaction from not being there, but really wanting to be. Of course it just made us want to be there even more... The documented stories were well told too, although once they were @ comic-con, I admit I was distracted a lot by all of the other things going on. Not the movies fault though.

I could swear that about midway through the film, for about a half-second, you see about one-fourth of Paul Kaiju's head. He's wearing his top hat. Gonna see if I can find it...

Haha, I noticed that too. Was this filmed during the 2011 con?

Pretty sure that's right given the references to the "Thor" and "Captain America" movies.

Great catch! And yeah, 2010 makes more sense....

It was shot at 2010.

I enjoyed watching it, it was done tastefully and you really felt for the folks that were the focus.
I was afraid it was going to be Trekkies(which I was also at one of the cons filmed) and be a little mocking.

Also I have been ordering from Mile High for almost 10 years and it was nice to see them represented so well a little higher priced, but great service.

The one thing that i thought was handled badly in the film, was the choice to follow the action-figure collector. I think this characterization was the only one that really re-inforced a stereotype. (i mean seriously, the gun safe for toys that are worth 60 bucks more than he paid :roll: )

I would have loved to see them follow someone in the indie-toy scene instead. To me, that would have made a better story, and introduced people to a significant niche of the con. (The october toys peeps get a soundbite in the movie, and both skinner and biskup are in the coffee table book version of the film.)
