I'm glad people like it and I wanted to clarify something.

Naniwa brought it up as we talked to him at the start. He is here to win, his line about not having respect for BW players was most likely something lost in translation. I asked him how he would feel playing Boxer and to him a game is a game. Your opponent doesn't matter, only winning.

He gave me the badass stare the entire interview and as soon as we were done he just got up and left without saying anything. I was like man this guy is so intense. Then a minute later he comes back in to the room we interviewed him and says I forgot my pillow then just laughs.

That quote from naniwa is complete and total boss status. I've always hated how actors upon winning oscar's are always thanking their fans, and shit, but Naniwa fucking understands. You do what you love, because its what you want to do, not for someone else, but for yourself. that's fucking right. Naniwa is my favorite fucking player now.

Also if you do another one, do it completely on Naniwa, just cause he's a total BOSS.

Why would Naniwa have any specific respect towards Brood War players? He was a WC3 player..

I've never seen stalife/slush/kiwikaki in an interview before this. Gotta say, stalife looks like the type of guy a lot of people could be good friends with.

Great ~~interview~~ video!

its important to have a variety of pros to show the diversity and level of pros. even stalife was humble about his current position as a "pro". I think it was a great addition. Sorta sad though to not have day9 on this interview, but husky and mrbitter were great.

Great video! It was such a pleasure to watch.

Stalife seems like such a cool guy!
qxc had some really solid answers to some of the questions.
Naniwa's determination is so palpable!
Jinro's hilarious.

Good luck to all the pro-gamers attending school! Hell, good luck to all of them, regardless.

Very entertaining, Husky talking about zergs running their zerglings and their "Huge balls" around made me giggle. Also Mr bitter saying nestea having some success was a riot xD.

Forget the other players, anyone else kinda wish the entire documentary was a giant QXC interview?

very cool! Wish you got some interviews from some of the spectators to see what they thought about the whole event, it would be fresh to get some insight from how the open pool players and spectators though about sc2

I liked QXC's comment that "People are like 'oh my god, Starcraft 2 is so easy' and we're all still terrible at it". It really highlights the fact that the game is still so young that even top professionals can't possibly have plumbed all its depths yet, and that the quality of play will certainly improve with time.
