Nintendo Quest (2015)

In this all-encompassing documentary on Nintendo, gaming enthusiast Jay Bartlett hits the open road with best friend Rob McCallum in hopes of buying the 678 official retail-licensed Nintendo games for the Nintendo Entertainment System (1985) in 30 days with no online purchases. Along the way Jay and Rob will discuss Nintendo history, landmark games, box art, music, graphics, game play and more.

Disappointing and touching... 6/10

I watched "The Staircase" on Netflix last weekend. One of the best true crime docu-series that I have ever seen. At the level of Making a Murderer.

Agreed. I just finished the 13-episode series on Netflix. It lost some momentum in the last few episodes, but overall I thoroughly enjoyed it. Reality can truly by stranger than fiction at times...

What do you think, did Michael Peterson murder his wife Kathleen? I'm indecisive.

Have you heard of the Owl Theory?

That theory seems highly implausible to me... Probably why it wasn't included in the series?

But it was.
