  If there was a tagline for a movie about Billy’s life it would have to be “He’s in the fight of his life, and the stakes couldn’t be lower”

  Never before has a man lied so much for the sake of achieving so little. It&apos;s the only true record he&apos;s ever broken.

  &quot;He was a basketball&quot; will never not get a chuckle from me.

  i find it pretty ironic and tragicomic that Steve Wiebe, who was really acting very sportsmanlike, going out of his way to be part of a greater Donkey Kong community, and kept feeling sad about losing to Billy, had actually always been the true Donkey Kong champion deserving the title

  This is such a thorough destruction that I am afraid Billy will sue me for watching it.

  Man, I&apos;m beginning to think this Billy Mitchell guy isn&apos;t being honest.

  If you ever feel like you wasted your life, just remember, Billy Mitchel has spent at least 20 years of his trying to lie about a high score in donkey kong.

  I can&apos;t imagine how many hundreds of invisible hours went into making this. Really solid work.

  &quot;If I stole something yesterday and then proved I could pay for it today, that doesn&apos;t mean I am innocent.&quot; Such an amazing line.

  Billy’s lawyer repeatedly imploring him to just answer the question is hilarious. His frustration is palpable.

  Billy Mitchell is like the god-tier evolution of the kid in grade school whose dad worked for Nintendo.
