    Re: The foosmovie review

    I was really impressed with the movie.  I think because I went into the movie remembering that it was a documentary on the history of foosball, I ended up enjoying the whole film.  I agree that I would like to have seen more of the current playerbase represented, but I also really didn't have that much of a background understanding of the progression of the game.  I had heard a lot of the names in the movie just from reading stories and things on the ez-board, but I didn't know that much about the origins of foos.  When I first heard that the finals match of the first tournament took over 8 hours to play, I couldn't believe it!  Just some of the small things that were mentioned in this movie were amazing.  I like Johnny Horton just from the aspect of being able to watch to see what he will do next.  I loved finding out about all the things that went on during the tour to cause such havock on people and their lives.  I didn't know who Scott Moreland was before the movie (good or bad, just didn't know), but to see what he has gone through and overcome to continue playing this game is amazing.
