    Let's not take unnecessary and completely out of the way potshots at other users, please. You've done this a lot, particularly towards YamchasOnlyFan and get far madder than what you accuse him of doing towards Chris. On top of that, it jumps into backseat modding at times. Don't do this again, it stinks up whatever thread you do it in for at least half a page.

    Looking at Chris' post here and his reaction towards Sachumo's documentary, the only thing that he wants is essentially a whitewashing of Christory. Sachumo's documentary was unusually neutral and Chris' numerous fuckups were enough to trigger him by his own admission. He just wants to have the narrative spun so that it's the story of Chris finding happiness and success through trial and error leading to the discovery that he's a woman and rising up to the pinnacle that's apparently Bronycon. Despite none of these things really being true. That documentary is as close to a truly neutral and even-handed one as we'll ever get.

    Also, it's kind of hard to talk compassion when he let Sorbet's eye rot out. Just saying.

    Chris certainly doesn't deserve any.

    The problem with making a good documentary on Chris, besides making it unbiased and fair, is the Chris is still alive and therefore any documentary about him (or anyone else alive for that matter) becomes outdated before it's even published.
    Apart from that, a fair documentary would have to be made by one that's a very casual Chris-watcher at the most, otherwise it runs the risk of being unbiased.
    Yet another problem is the amount of information out there. A watchable documentary just couldn't include everything and that, in itself, shows bias.

    Tl;dr: a perfect Chris documentary isn't happening until after his funeral and it won't be made by us or his friends.

    I think this is part of what fascinates me with Chris. On the one hand, this is EXACTLY the kind of remark I would expect him to make because I understand how he is. On the other hand, part of me can never get over how strong his self delusion is.

    Chris is constantly begging for money, succor, understanding, kindness and favors from others while providing very little and almost none himself. This is not an opinion, this is an observable fact backed by extensive empirical evidence. Chris has donated some small amounts of money to relief for others in catastrophes, however he did so very publicly in order to receive accolades for it. Chris helps no one on a regular basis. Chris has been a terrible friend, a terrible son (granted I can understand this one to a point), and a terrible sibling at different points in time.

    None of this makes him a bad person and none of this makes him worse than any other person per se; the point is merely that upon a preponderance of evidence no reasonable observer would find much "kind testimony" to give concerning Chris' past actions because he has done very little to be considered "kind" and in fact seems to beg others to be kind as his sole vocation.

    Now yes, we all perceive ourselves to be better people than we really are for several reasons, but one would think this much evidence would lead to some kind of self-realization. One would of course be completely wrong, for this is none other than Chris-Chan.

    Furthermore, the insistence that a documentary about him be "kind" rather than accurate, and that the "Sagas", i.e. his actions which are embarrassing, be reduced in the retelling in favor of "kind testimony" makes this transparent for what it is, a demand for someone to make a video praising Chris and not hurting his feelings with the truth.

    That is, in a word, shitty and demonstrative of a massive self centered entitlement complex, which is frankly the opposite of kindness. Which gets me back to square one: This is why there's very little which can be objectively said about how "kind" Chris is.

    I'm not even touching the rest of those remarks.

    The hard part would be defining what Chris's good traits ARE. Traits that maybe a 'positive' documentary could focus on. He possess a good self-image, but its easy to just conclude its just inflated ego and delusion that he's some golden child. His autism inevitably makes whatever friendliness he exudes toxic and results in him being clingy or violently angry. Creativity? That one can be argued, but chris's lack of originality cuts that off at the knee. Honesty? Nah. Respect for women? Catherine and Doopie would contest that. A good son? If he didn't rely on Barb he'd be anywhere else and not giving a shit about her. His interactions with the bronycon people and the LGBT community seem lukewarm, but exactly how deep those interactions went is unknown, presumably more shallow than chris would believe. I can't even say he's good at manipulating people.

    can anyone else maybe suggest something positive about him that I'm overlooking?

    Well, he helped a friend in high school after his girlfriend broke up with him, and he helped out with the high school basketball team. He also had a lemonade stand (in his 30s) to raise funds for cancer research.

    He voted in the last couple of elections for president. It is literally the only thing I can think of other than the aforementioned Harvey relief fund donation.

    Chris would probably stammer out something about his art he offers up as gifts, I'd imagine, but, whatever.

    These all would qualify. I can see this documentary is going to be real long when we get to the good parts of OPL...

    The trouble is, this gets straight to the tragedy of Chris. Some on this site don't think so, and I respect that opinion, but imho Chris has potential to be a much better person than he is now with sufficient time and hard work and he refuses to move toward that in any way.

    He doesn't do anything. He doesn't interact with anyone in a normal way regularly.

    Chris clearly has done some things he deserves criticism for, but I've never made a comprehensive moral judgment of him just because there's no substance to his life. Granted, most of us wish our lives had more substance, people struggled with existential crises, boredom or ennui and loneliness all the time, but Chris just doesn't even have anything basic to cling to.

    He has a room full of toys in a decaying house and a life full of loafing around and it's so sad to see it because he could be better than that. You can't say much about a person like that as a person. Your character is who you are day in day out and it develops over time. When you just don't do anything, you don't have much character for anyone to really speak about.

    This is more of a general observation regarding a Chris documentary, but a lot of people seem to think that it needs to be comprehensive. To me that sounds like the perfect way to be rambling and incomprehensible, and you get that enough with just Chris himself. A few of the trolling sagas are worth in depth looks, but the majority of them can be handled in a montage. I think that a good way to structure it would be to establish how Chris would use CWCville as an escape from reality and how the trolls eventually corrupted his fantasy kingdom. And how he reclaimed it with all the tranny shit.

    I mean, I feel like everything that's been said about the sagas has literally been said. Unless there's some previously unknown inside info or "backstage" anecdotes that the trolls can pass along, what's had to be said has been said.

    Chris doesn't want any documentary about CWC to exceed the Hurtful Truth Level.

    They both hit Snyder. Chris hit him, they switched places and then Barb hit him.
