Über Goober (2004)

Documentary

A film about gamers

Release Date: 2004, June 7
Directors: Steve Metze
Cast: Rob Smith, Luke Sienkowski, Becca Smith, Phil Viverito, John Kovalic

Overview:

Über Goober focuses on the often-misunderstood, sometimes-controversial, and always-kind-of-geeky world of Gamers. Director Steve Metze examines several different groups including historical miniature gamers, role-players, and those known simply as "LARPers." The film also explores opposition from religious groups, negative media portrayals, and some of the meanest 'man-on-the-street' interviews ever committed to video. Meet the Gamers, learn their exotic language, see their bizarre rituals, gasp at their semi-authentic costumes, and thrill to the painting techniques on their miniatures!
