Feature film “The Hobby” in development

Wondering if any of you says this and had thoughts on what you’d like to see in a doc like this… seems like we’ll have a few familiar faces. Since it covers sports etc. I’m curious to know what kind of exposure Pokémon may get in the film (and market response, if any) and what aspects of the hobby would be most interesting to an outside audience, given most of your guys’ depth of knowledge.

I hope Nicolas Cage plays me in this movie

That’d be such a power move. I’d love to see Nic Cage play in some movie where he’s a collector gone rogue. Like John Wick style but he tries to get his stolen cards/ comics back.

Nicolas Cage is actually a big comic collector, so he is qualified!

Not to put a damper here on anything, but to my knowledge I have seen a pattern…

(In all seriousness though, a doc would be pretty fun and enjoyable to watch)

People who say “The Habby” and mean it seriously always give me boomer sports collector vibes.

Someone paid 4.6 million for a Doncic rookie? Jeez, he’s only been in the league for a few years. That’s crazy

It was probably Luka himself
