Documentary of the Year. Fuck the Academy Awards.

I think it is between this and Dickhouse's The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia.

I had the opposite reaction watching the trailer.

 

[Brinbe]

I love me some Eli Porter. I sent him a friend request on Facebook this morning.

 

[harSon]

I was just telling my friend that the dude was bullshitting out of his ass when he said he had a documentary and mixtape coming out :lol

Edit: What happened to his chest? Heart surgery or a shooting/stabbing?

 

[Washed_Out]

That's a huge scar. Looks like heart surgery.

 

[CaptainMintMan]

Woah what happened to the guy :|

He is actually still making music. He has a Myspace with a couple of songs up, check 'em out.

 

[radios shipping overview]

So, so serious. This could end up being funnier than the original video.

 

[Chavelo]

So appropriate for GAF. :lol

This doc ruined the joke for me. Bah we still got bisexual bridal showers.

 

[joelseph]

Dialysis

Yeah. =/

Interesting seeing the other reactions in this thread.

 

[Master Thespian]

Chamblee High, my old alma mater. I thought the first video was exploitive, so we'll see how the next one turns out.

 

[Washed_Out]

Bump.

Full video got released. I was dying laughing at the discussion about Marv-O hugging up on J-dub.

[Salmonax]

That's easily the best dissection of a viral video ever produced. Outstanding and hilarious.

MAH FOCKA

And this "documentary" was great. Eli is a fucking legend.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Dude's acne is ridiculous.

 

[Washed_Out]

I liked that they dissected every part of the video and gave us a back story to why we see stuff like a heart and the infamous long pause. But I also wanted to see more of Eli's life. What's the status on his health issues and stuff.

 

[The Faceless Master]

damn, that was a pretty nice documentary

 

[soultron]

Pretty awesome documentary. The heart part had me laughing really hard.

 

[Broseybrose]

Damn near brought a tear to my eye.

 

[Alex Connolly]

Wow at some of the dickish responses in here.

Looking forward to checking out the doco.

 

[Zekes!]

Shit, that was awesome.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Very well done. I loved it.

 

[Pristine_Condition]

This reminded me of a lot of the guys I grew up with and played football with.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Even better than I expected after seeing the trailer damn near a year ago. Although I don't see why Andy Milonakis was in there at all. Very interested in seeing Part 2.

 

[Discotheque]

Nominate this for an academy award!!!

 

[dralla]

I actually know the person who's making this. this is only the first part of it, unfortunately they don't have the money to finish editing the second part

 

[Kusagari]

I lol'd when they started explaining how Marv-O was the pimp of the school.

 

[InertiaXr]

I appreciate when Eli was talking about how Envy went after him for his leg condition, and he says 'it gets me where I need to go'. Much respect to him for that. He works with what he's got, and that earns respect.
