Just picked up the first two hardcover volumes of Batman and Robin and was not impressed at all. I was expecting something along the lines off his collaboration with Quitely on All Star Superman (the best superhero comic of the past decade) but instead got some bullshit that included a darkest night crossover. Laaaaame.
My real questions is: does this documentary cover that fact that almost everything this man writes gets shit on and retconned within a couple of years of publication (like his brilliant run on New X-Men in the early 00's)?
I saw it down in San Francisco a few months ago - it's good! I highly recommend it for fans. The pacing is a little much - there are a LOT of talking heads, but it's good stuff.
Answered some questions I was curious about, like, what is the relationship between Morrison himself and Kingmob? And what the hell is going on in his Crisis series?
A striking moment comes when Morrison recollects his mother taking him out in a field at night, pointing out the star Sirius, and .... well, you should find out for yourself. It explains a lot about him.
For what it's worth, my completely-non-comics-fan girlfriend gamely came to see it with me, and enjoyed it.
