Billy Mitchels : King of Hypocrisy?


He talks about playing in public, in front of people , but when it comes to the crunch, he doesn't show up against his biggest challenger.That challenger who beat his score and had it on tape, but wasn't allowed to keep the score because it was classed as being dodgy.But what does Billy Mitchell go and do? He hands over a tape, that looks very suspicious, on the day that his high score is beaten in public by Steve.No one bats an eye-lid or questions this tape's validity, and as soon as, put his score up as the best in the World.

He's a creepy, little, geek that let a score go to his head.Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with being a geek, but he takes high score for making an ass out of himself.He thinks he's a Movie Star when in fact he's just your average Joe.

The Movie was good fun to watch, but it was very creepy at times.It seemed as though the members of Twin Galaxies were willing to do anything to keep Billy Mitchel's High Score at all costs.It was as if they didn't accept outsiders into their little cult.Especially the creepy little man running about behind Steve's back, going around telling people of his progress and keeping Billy up to date with his scores; that gave me the heebiegeebies.Creepy little guy.

Mitchell is one of the biggest douchebags I have ever had the displeasure of watching onscreen.

Completely arrogant, a true weasel and a coward (when he walks by Steve, who is playing Kong, and Steve politely states 'Hey, Billy', Billy wanders away giving NO response then childishly mugs to the camera 'There are certain people here I don't want to spend time talking to.'

Yeah, certain people more mature, classy and BETTER at the game than you, whiny mullet boy?

What an unchecked, unwarranted and laughable WUSS Mitchels is. A legend in his own mind, he is truly an embarrassment to sportsmanship and TRUE winners such as Steve.

I felt the same as most others here, Billy is a prick.
Just an arrogant, pompous ass... and Steve was a decent, nice and honest guy.

How they ever accepted that fake tape of Billy's I'll never know, while not accepting Steve's tape.

Even if there is editing and manipulation.... and there probably was, Billy is still an arrogant prick, he has that air about him and you can just see he loves himself.

Grrrr

Glad Steve Retook the title... and Glad someone else is now Champ too.... Go Hank.

I've heard the director is making a sequel to this film, showing what has happened to both men since the first film and how their lives have changed as a result.

Should be interesting.

Another thing, the director also says Billy's behaviour and attitude was actually worse than how he appeared in the film.

I'll also look forward to seeing that, if it ever gets made.

Just out of curiosity, it'd be interesting to find out whether Big Mouth reclaimed the record in full public scrutiny (the ONLY true indicator, according to him) or whether another tape was used.

Incidentally, if the controversial tape was only a copy, why was BM threatening his couriers with their lives if they lost it? And, why didn't the so-called scrutineers ask for the original at any time (as the Guinness people would have)? There was obvious sycophantic skulduggery going on that Steve Weibe should have investigated.


That wasn't very sporting, using real bullets.

What gets me is the nerd squad invaded Steve's home..where is wife and children live. They have some balls showing up to a strangers house and going into his garage uninvited..I don't know if anyone here has seen "A Bronx Tale" but I would have came home and done what Sonny the gangster did to the bikers in that bar..Came in calmly, closed and locked the garage door and said, "There, no you's can't leave" and proceeded to make holes in my sheet rock with their heads..and then still have them arrested at the hospital for trespassing, lol...

I completely agree with everything you have said regarding this burden on Earth. Its pretty clear that he is liar and a schemer who lives in a make-believe world of his where he is king of everything. I am going to be honest here, near the end I couldn't see this snob's face without showering some pretty colorful expletives.
