Love that documentary. Have you seen Chasing Ghosts? It's along the same lines and worth checking out -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJz8KIlEq7I

That link didn't work for me. I bet it's because I'm not in the US. Anyway the net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it[0], here's a link that should work anywhere:

Chasing Ghosts >>> King of Kong imo

The hardest I have laughed in my entire life was at the line "This is Christopher Lambert". That moment is absolute bonkers.

That was an early cut that leaked. Apparently the official cut removed that scene. Understandably considering it overwhelms the whole documentary.

It IS one of the best scenes in film history. But the whole film is great... did they really cut it? I know there are multiple versions, I never got to see the one that supposedly has a way better soundtrack, and I've seen it available on modern streaming services but never checked to see what version they had.
