I know some critics have already seen Picturehouse’s The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters and I think I missed a screening of it here at the Seattle Film Festival, but I have heard some good things out of this Donkey Kong battle of a movie and now I have the new one sheet for you. It isn’t as if the poster is so exciting as much as this was simply a chance for me to let those of you that might not know about this documentary in on the secret.
The film follows a middle school science teacher as he battles a hot sauce mogul for the Guinness World Record on the arcade classic Donkey Kong. It sounds a little goofy, but they have already decided to make an adaptation of this documentary with Seth Gordon directing both of them.
The King of Kong hits theaters on August 17, and here is the poster… Give it a click for a larger look.
