GameStop: Rise of the Players

This "Documentary" is not worth watching tbh. The writting is really bad and the music goes on in the background for the full duration of the movie to probably hide how boring this is.

The entire theater stench of cheese and doritos was extreme!! I heard 100 farts and 500 coughs. Cheese and doritos everywhere!! Power to the PLAYERS. Best film of 2022. Oscars nominees every single damn frame!! Go see this film! Run! Don't walk!!

All the 10's, should have known it was crap right off the bat.

But on a good note I didn't finish it, maybe this will spare someone else the agony.

Anything with multiple 10's is usually a dead give away.

I love the Gamestop story. Wall street getting the treatmnet it has dished out for decades and then crying about it like the GOP snowflakes they are.

Try to watch everything I can on this but this was, for me, unwatchable.

I guess someones girlfriend, boyfriend, or partner, thinks they are a musician so the soundtrack got left in.

It is so loud you struggle to hear the people tellng the story, such a struggle you just give up.

Seems to be the trend lately. Crap music soundtracks, that are louder than the interviewees.

This movie gives a brief understanding of the (first part!) of the Gamestop saga. It's a great starting point to educate people, and show how easy some wealthy Wallstreet investors can manipulate the whole financial system to their own benefit (Ken Griffin being the biggest among them), and how small retail investors om Reddit found out a leap in their cheating mechanisms.

However, unlike mainstream media like to make people believe this whole Gamestop saga is over, the situation hasn't changed. Shorts haven't covered and Ken Griffin isn't in jail. So the movie is a good start, but how the second part will play out is what I'm really excited for.
