These people do not represent 98% of gamers

For the most part this movie focuses on 3 individuals that have serious social and personal issues. Oh yea and they play role playing games. The men are disturbing, and delusional. One of them left his family and moved across the country. He is a control freak about how he runs his game and in other parts of his life as depicted by the movie. The other is lazy with the work ethic of a koala. They are all depicted as socially awkward and at times you are very worried about how they survive in society. Overall this movie relates only 1% to its title of gaming and being a dungeon master, and more about three peoples personal lives. If you film at GenCon, surrounded by a hundred thousand people playing games you should have talked to any of those people and had more to relation to a game master than what this film shows. The cinematography is well done, and general film techniques are good. Just not the film it would present itself as.
