"So, as most of you know, I’ve been making films and related media about roleplaying games (among other things) with some friends for oh… 23 years or so now. It all began with Matt Vancil thinking it would be fun to write and direct a comedy that makes fun of (with love) the disparity between grand adventure epic fantasy and the goofy fun of folks sitting around a table playing a game. And I said something to the effect of ‘I have relevant skills, how can I help?’ After a pandemic and a number of health problems among key folks, major life changes and other obstacles, the original plan for the grand finale of the stories that began with The Gamers and progressed into The Gamers Dorkness Rising is finally back on the table. More stories are still in the works, but if you want to know what happened to The Shadow… this is your chance. Please support this collection of skilled and passionate independent artists trying to tell a great story with a lot of love. We would appreciate it!" -Mark Thomason, aka "The Bandit King" https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1464770493/gamers-4-dorkness-falls

So, there are some funny movies about gaming, and the capstone for the series is kickstarting - and ending soon.

The nice thing about the Gamers series is that it doesn't have to do a bunch of Hollywood politicking to get made. The bad thing about the Gamers is that it doesn't have the Hollywood budget to get made, but they do it anyway. The series has been going since 2002 and hits as many Gamer jokes and memes as it can. If you don't know it, you can watch it all for free at https://www.zombieorpheus.com/the-gamers/. If you do know it, you can still watch it there ad-free. If you're a person who enjoys it, there is also https://onlyflynns.com/ so that you can find out what happened to the 37 other Flynns who had hovered in the wings at Westhaven. Once again, if you made it this far, cat tax
