I really don't care about such films. It is about an egotistical douche who cannot fathom the fact that someone does not share their love and devotion to the game, and instead of simply asking the guy to try harder or not play with them, he decides to "win".
Also, i am not a fan of making fun of other people because of their hobbies.
Also, your comment? Kinda rude.

You took all that from the trailer? Hats off to you.:)Looked just like a fun movie to me, but ,I thought the guys making that movie are making fun of themselves not of others ,big difference.But you might be right and this is a shameless slur on all the poor gamers.
I will watch the trailer again and try to pick up the clues.Also ,taking offense at my previous comment? Kinda oversensitive.

Saw the trailer. Looks like it WASN'T made by/for people who are actually part if the tabletop RPG community. The main character is the very essence of antisocial/stinky/insecure/fatbody gamer people think make up our 'demographic'. I probably wouldnt be so harsh if the trailer was remotely funny but IMO, it was far from. More D'baggery on an indie scale..

I think I should just let it go at this point but I just can't help myself, so let me adress these statements real quick.
I am only speculating here but at first glance this seemed to be some sort of comedy, and looking at it in this light:

Well, lets see, of course he could talk it out like a grown up, but that wouldn't be much of a movie then would it?
It's supposed to be funny.

Again if you make a comedy you will want to play with well known tropes and stereotypes,its funny.
What would you prefer for the main character in such a movie? James Bond turned gamist?Really I haven't seen the movie and don't know much about it but if the movie keeps what the trailer promises I will love it.

Well known tropes shouldnt necessarily include blatant negative overtones. If I go to see a movie that pokes fun at the "tropes" of being a modern Jew, I dont excpect a big nosed/whiny/gold hungry hypochondriac as the main character.
