I was recently handed this documentary from a friend of mine and I really enjoyed it.

Frag is a documentary about the E-sport scene (Doesn't really talk about starcraft/S-Korea) the people, the companies, ect.

One of the main issues this film talks about is the CPL, they show the positive side of it in the beginning but they soon showed shadyness of the corporation and the lies they told.


It was very cool to see DJ.Wheat, Slasher, and Carmac in the documentary. It doesn't talk about SC:BW or Korea but the movie gives a good insight on the stories of a few gamers that made it big and the difficulty it becomes pro.


I really suggest it, great movie overall.

Yeah my bad, I thought Slasher was spelled with a Z

I put a link to their website and a trailer from youtube.

I was just mentioning people from the SC:BW/SC2 community that come out in this movie, DJ.Wheat not so much though.

If you want another e-sports related documentary, there's this one called "I got Next" that covered some SF4 tournaments a while back.

http://www.igotnextmovie.com/

Edit: Also, its not related to professional gaming, but gaming in general. The makers of Penny Arcade have their own weekly episodic documentary show that is quite amazing, if you ask me. That, and some of the filler episodes ("Blamimations" by Scott Kurtz and Kris Straub) are some of the most hilarious things I've ever watched.

Yeah, I've seen that one and many others.

Seriously though OP, edit Zlasher to Slasher, Slasher gets pissy when he sees people make that mistake.

I've watched the documentary a few times. It kind of hypes things up quite a bit. For instance, it mentions the obsession caused death! Then they don't even back up the claim. Overall, its entertaining but there are points of lolwat.
