If anyone was disappointed, I'm not sure what they must have been expecting. As Gary Roberts said, "if you've ever seen a documentary before" then this was a pretty darn good documentary. I'm not sure if people were expecting The Gladiator or what, but I'm actually glad that I read this whole post before watching it, so my expectations were low. I also didn't agree that it should have been longer, it definitely felt long enough for me. My favorite part was the footage of John vs. Taras Ivakin in Croatia, I believe. That looked like the most amazing armwrestling environment, or anything for that matter.

GOT MINE A WEEK AGO....
A JEWEL IN MY DVD COLLECTION, CAREFULLY SHINED! 2 THUMBS WAY UP!
ONLY WAY IT COULD HAVE BETTER IF THERE COULD HAVE BEEN MORE FOOTAGE OF JOHN & TRAVIS....A FEW MORE MATCHES. MY ADRENALINE WAS UP AS HIGH AS EVER, IT DID LIVE UP TO IT'S EXPECTATIONS.
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I REALLY LIKED ABOUT IT WAS: THE INSIGHT ON THEIR PERSONAL LIVES, MADE IT BETTER TO SEE PEOPLES CLIMB TO TO BE THE BEST & THIER SURROUNDINGS.
ONLY BAD THING...COULD HAVE MORE...
THIS WILL BE INSPIRING FOR MANY PEOPLE FOR MANY YEARS!

Travis,
Armwrestling is a small community and you're sh###ing on people. The people you saw in a movie are the same people we're all close friends with. I know you've been in the sport all of ten minutes, but you need to listen and learn before you go insulting people.
Respect is big part of this sport. You are way out of line.

ok i see i knew how this was going to be,you talk about growing the sport of armw,but when somebody calls bull$hit ,when they see bull$hit u get offended. Shane,John,this is america u dont have the right to not be offended!You may be friends with these guys,maybe but maybe not.I tell my "friends" the truth good or bad,dont kiss there a$$ because they can beat me at armw.John if i give my view on something u dont like am i way out of line then also?$hiting on people i think not.when travis bagent says Charles BaRkley ant got nothing on me i didnt get offended, ive met charles he grew up and went to school 20min from me.50 greatest NBA alltime.Thats jus Travis B. opinion,(although its hilarious).But i guess ur bud can say what he wants and get no flack from u.You look older than me but im not sure but need to grow up,U probably are a nice guy sticking up for ur friend and all.But people who know me know i call it like i see it,check ur feelings at the login......Shane,i must have touched on a sore spot about pulling john movie,ok u must love i get it. jus trying to make a joke,i see u dont have a sense of humor welli sure do.but your come back was soft,ill be sure to give u better ammo in the future.lol.Sorry i touched a nerve,but not 4 what i said.I never back down from ARMW or ANYBODY, dont worry bout who i piss off,(i dont see telling the trurth about a movie could piss people off).So shane,john see u when isee.I uwould be MORE than happy to disscuss this or anything else thats on ur mind face 2 face!hope were cool now,LOL
