Anyone know what happened to that documentary they aired the trailer of at the spring game last year? It was supposed to come out last fall and never did :( Also the guy from Dirty Jobs was gonna narrate it.

That video still gives me chills.... would be great if Fatty was here to put it together and then Mike Rowe do the voice overs....

He better be taking this time to try and get ESPN to pick it up for a 30-for-30 piece (if that's possible)
-
I think this will be very good.
-
The should do a red carpet premiere at the Wareham

ESPN is keepin' in the can so they can roll it out in November as an undefeted KSU makes noise as they chase a slot on the CFB Playoff as the confy season plays out. #prosource

It's AMC. They purchased Carmike in December.

the maker of the film is a buddy of mine. he's releasing it the spring game at the amc theaters. hes currently trying to work out other deal to have it shown on a much wider scale. he's being pretty hush hush about it. if i find out more ill try and let you know

I sure hope he doesn't know what year you were born and reads gomemaw. Made stop feeding info. I'm assuming 86 was when you were born.
Hoping you still get more scoops.

This is a real thing, though. Like, if he wins another Big XII or goes to the CFP, that just won't be in the documentary? Will be very confusing to people watching it waiting for the ending.

Not really, my favorite sports doc of all time ends in the team getting heartbroken in the worst conceivable way. They won the world series the next year. Many of the best 30 for 30's don't end with 'ships.

Agree. There needs to be a crowning achievement for the climax. Without a natty it's just a good story, not a great one.
-
Although, something in the opposite direction could work, too. Some sort of devastatingly sad ending that yanks the rug out from beneath it all would make for a compelling story.

I don't know why people insist there must be a championship for the payoff, if the doc is good it doesn't need a championship to finish it off. There have been 94 30 for 30's shot, 9 of those had the featured team win a championship and not all of those 9 had the championship as the conclusion.

I really enjoyed Last Chance U and *spoiler* it doesn't end in that manner either.

yeah, most of the more intriguing docs end with no championship

Iirc there was a 30 for 30 about a KU fan buying a book. So I don't think a NC is a prerequisite.

Well it is called part 1 the foundation.
yes but if he was trying to shop it to places(which he may not be) not many people are going to gaf as much as if it was all banged out in one documentary.
The ending was also just so damn awkward.. it was like welp.. ok, I guess its over
-
Any idea when it'll be released for others to view?
I am lucky enough to live in Manhattan & went to go see it at the theater. I am feeling bad for my non-townie buds however.
-
Part 1 will be available to rent in 10 days on the website, per their FB page.
Also, you can pre-order the DVD for $25 on the FB page.

There's some good quotes. They player interviews were fascinating/entertaining. Little things I either didn't know or forgot about, plus a couple of their emotions telling stories were pretty good. Early fiesty Snyder footage I don't rememer was good.
I found it very fascinating as a KSU fan, but I'm not sure how well it'd play to a wider audience. It had a more of a "people reminiscing on film" feel, but that might be because of my knowledge of it. It reminds me much more of an early BigTen network documentary than a 30-for-30 type.

Yes it's good and great for K-State fans but I think it's not quite produced at the same quality as 30-for-30s. Definitely interested in a part two and the old footage is great.
-
It was really good. Definintely wished it was longer, but it's looking like if its three parts it'll be what we just saw, then 1994-2003 domination, and then the return. After he makes all three he needs to sell it to ESPN so they can then use it and touch up whatever they see fit. Gotta keep Mike Rowe though. I could listen to that dude talk forever.

I don't think it's anywhere near good enough to be interesting to a wide audience. KSU fans yes. Big 12 fans, maybe. The rest of the country, probably not.
I love the story, it's crazy what he did. But, there's no real drama. At least there's none portrayed in this film.
-
Speaking of drama, I want to hear more about the locker room brawl after the Louisiana Tech game in 1988 haha

There's like 20 things like this I came away with. It was very fascinating to some like me who was starting kindergarten when Snyder started his 1st season.
The whole time I was equally thinking "I'm glad they didn't just do the standard Snyder stories" and "why didn't they mention this story or person?"
The more I think about it, this was a very hard film to make. He had to have known he was targeting a very narrow audience with the hope of a wider, so he couldn't just give the target base the same old stuff, but also had to keep some of it for the wider audience.

I saw it in the Theater & watched it again tonight.
I saw Weird Robert/Robert Lipson down on the field waiving his foam finger when I didn't notice him initially when I was in the theater. haha
The old footage of fiery Snyder at press conferences is great, especially since I couldn't find any of it on YouTube when I looked after seeing MiM the first time.
-
It was inspiring. The documentary records those years leading up to LHCBS as I remember the program. Yet I don't think it does justice to just how bad historically K-State had been in football. To say K-State lost 30 games in a row was nothing new, it was expected.
Which is why it puts a further explanation point on what LHCBS has accomplished and just how fragile the program still remains, by making the wrong hire post Snyder.

Haven't seen it yet but this makes me happy, as much as we all like Bill the whole "story" gets old after a while. It's like you know when they do some piece on him this year on FS1/ESPN it's going to be copy-paste of any special they ran in like 2012 with minor updates. I want to hear the more real stuff, that stuff is infinitely more fascinating that your basic story anyways. Sort of like when you learn how the real ride of Paul Revere and the battles of Lexington and Concord went down. Way more :sdeek: than boring history class makes it out to be.

Well I'm about to go watch TBoKSF again
-
Loved the old footage for sure. I could watch that stuff for hours. I was born in '87 and am not from a K-State family, so until now, I've only been able to read about how bad it was. Pre-Snyder video is pretty hard to find, so it was pretty insane to actually see shots of an empty stadium during home games, or an entire end zone full of Nebraska fans. Was also nice to see him branch out and interview more than the usual Michael Smith, Eric Gallon, etc. Those guys are great, but it was good to get some fresh perspective from other players as well. Doesn't sound like part two will happen any time soon, but I do hope it happens at some point. A few things in particular I took away from part one:
I've read a few variations of the Tulane story before, but wasn't convinced it was more than just folklore. Again, reading about something and actually seeing it for yourself are way different. Wonder if Dan even bothered reaching out to Parrish when putting this thing together.
I'd be interested to see what the other logo options were when players voted on the Powercat. I'm sure those are long gone, but I'll always be curious.
Don't think I'd ever heard the story about us getting cheered off the field in Lincoln. Also wouldn't have minded more info about the trip to Tokyo. Video of anything pre-1993 is pretty sparse, unless I'm just looking in the wrong places.
I know Snyder has always had an interesting relationship with the media, but some of those early interviews still caught me off guard. Guess I didn't realize how much he had to go to bat for his players in those first few seasons.
-
Yeah I gotta say, I really enjoyed it.
It's been said a lot, but fast-talking snyder was great. A far, far-cry from his demeanor today. Definitely had a chip on his shoulder. I would have loved to have been following the Cats at the time, just so I could fist-pump when Bill put the FakeNews on blast.
Hadn't ever heard the Tulane story before. Absolutely hilarious. The Bo Schembechler story was great too.
My only complaint is that it wasn't longer. I'd watch 12 hours of that stuff.
-
That was a pretty legit documentary, the emotion shown by the players almost 25 years later was awesome!!
-
finally watched it. good grief i want more. loved the insight from the old players, some of which i had never heard of before.
i really really hope we get more chapters. sounds like nothing is in the works yet. it's not quite as elite as i had hoped in terms of production quality, but that didn't really impact how much i enjoyed it. being a 30for30 was probably a pipe dream anyway.
-
i mean he's already working on Part II

My thoughts exactly.
I wonder what years part 2 and part 3 will cover? I presume part 2 will go 94 to the end of his first go around? Part 3= Snyder 2.0?

I would forward it to them if you had any amount of money that they would want.

The fact that we're aware of the subject matter doesn't make the story worthy of a 30 for 30. Every 30 for 30 has subject matter very familiar to a sect of sports fan. It's just taking undertold stories to the masses. I mean the last 30 for 30 was about two dudes who do sports talk radio.
These 30 for 30's often get written and rewritten more than once before they air. The Mike and the Maddog one was it's third iteration, I'm pretty sure the KU one existed before it was aired on ESPN and was tweaked as well.

I would love to see it make it to ESPN, or any mass audience. I haven't seen "Part 1" so i don't know the quality of it and if it could be a base of something ESPN takes on, but if the quality isn't there, I don't think there is any film maker or director that would decide this was going to be their project. Something the other stories have had that I don't know if we have is someone with clout and experience who took up the project.

Wait a minute. You can't purchase it? You have to rent it for 8 dollars?
You can purchase it at a later date, but as of now the only way to watch is via renting.
You can pre-order the DVD through the Facebook page. The release date is TBD, but I've seen him tell at least one person he wants to have them shipped before the start of the season.

yeah, all the og 30 for 30s were the brain child of a somewhat high profile Hollywood producer, director or what have you so we need Stonestreet to win an Oscar or whatever

It's mostly a DRM issue keeping them from allowing you to buy it online and I'm sure a distribution issue keeping you from buying a DVD right now. If you want to "buy" a digital copy, there's many concerns with how you could iget that video in in a way that would prevent you from just tossing it on some torrent site for everyone else to get for free. Amazon has spent millions figuring this out for them and these guys are trying to do it on a shoestring budget. If you want a copy, pay the $8, download your own copy (see my previous post) and keep it until they get thier end figured out
-
I'll wait for the torrent.

The opposite is actually true. The original series was 30 films by 30 filmmakers, when Bill Simmons and Grantland ran the series they have a lot of people their big break. Check out the 30 for 30 wiki, it's a good mix of established filmmakers, people no one have ever heard of, and people who were well known in other fields like Ice Cube. Since they punted Simmons they have used filmmakers they are more familiar with producing films that others have conceptualized or written.

Blu-ray copies will be available to purchase later this week, possibly tomorrow. Will also be available at the stadium on Saturday for fan appreciation. Go cats.

FINALLY got around to watching the deleted scenes last night. I knew Barry Sanders was committed to K-State at one point, but I didn't realize Parrish basically told him to get bent. It really is amazing how many HOF caliber players were committed here at one point in time, even back in the dark ages.
My father-in-law recently told me a story about how we lost Walter Payton. He said Payton was literally on his way to Manhattan and stopped to see his brother at Jackson State, then JSU coaches blackmailed him into staying by threatening to pull his brother's scholarship. Can anyone confirm this?

Wow. I figured the story might have been at least a little embellished. Not even a little bit. Thanks for the link.

30 for 30’s are best when their telling the real story as opposed to the hype or public perception.
Laettner: Public Perception-Pretty boy private school spoiled rich kid which fuels a whole legion of disdain.
Reality: Middle class kid with two school teacher parents working off his tuition at a private school by cleaning the school. Driven by the hate.
There’s no hook like that with Kstate. It’s all been written and filmed and discussed.
-
We still would have been shitty even with Walter Payton at running back.

False. The U had none of that public misperception at all and it’s the GOAT 30 for 30. Fab Five, too.

Would Walter Payton be as good as he was if he didn't go to Jackson State? :dunno:

Zero Days.
It’s a documentary about Stuxnet, which has been in my profile for some time. It talks about its creation, the countries invoked, and how sophisticated it was.
I’ve always loved the security side of IT. It also makes me want to deep dive more into that side. I write code, but the security side is another animal, but it is SO fascinating to me.
