Yes multiple times. Even wrote a very heartfelt handwritten letter. And many of our subjects, whom he's close to, also reached out on our behalf. And they haven't heard from him since January either. And these guys knew him pretty well. I think he has real reasons for laying low. When you expose wealth like that - who knows what may have happened. And of course, legally he probably needs keep his lips sealed, even if I personally believe he should be in the clear.

As per clips in the movie - they were used legally through fair use, which is common in documentaries in order to properly tell these sorts of stories.

This is a question I've been getting a lot! So currently I am not HODLing. But not because I don't want to! I have the utmost faith in Ryan Cohen and his plan for the future and very excited to see what he does with the company moving forward. I also believe that everything that's gone on the past year has given GameStop incredible visibility that is invaluable. But from a journalistic perspective, I can't hold the stock right now. That being said, now that the movie is out I think it would be acceptable for me to jump in especially at these prices!

Hey how's it going. First official question. Let's go. The film didn't end on a specific date in my mind. Yes there may be social posts that reflect specific dates throughout the film but keep in mind the majority of the interviews were filmed April-July. We definitely know that GameStop was going to continue to have plenty of ups and downs throughout the next year as Ryan Cohen's "Chewification" took hold. This story is ever-changing.

Personally, I want people to believe in themselves like many of our subjects. Any true story has a human element behind it that anyone should be able to connect with. At the same time, I wanted to give a digestible explanation of what is happening for people who don't typically understand this world. But the key takeaway is that the world is changing (in my opinion for the better) and finance is beginning to be democratized.

I'm very impressed by him. And after learning more about him from Farris, a former Chewy employee, I have nothing but great things to say about him. His silence through all this is obviously scary to some folks but super important as he tries to reshape the company. He didn't have to invest in GME, he chose to.
