RPPR Interview with Matt Vancil, director of The Gamers 1 and 2

The Gamers is a cult classic movie celebrating role playing’s inherent weirdness. Since its premiere at Gencon in 2003, it has been quoted nearly as often as Monty Python at gaming tables around the world. The Gamers 2: Dorkness Rising premiered at Gencon 2008 and is rapidly making the rounds, raking up sales and acclaim. I spoke to him about the genesis of the movies, how they were made and some of the other projects he’s involved with, such as Falcon Rock Command. Please note that a weird error messed up my side of the interview. It’s audible but there’s an odd noise. I have no idea what could cause it.
