So Valve made a Movie about eSports... I have yet to find the time to watch it.
Anyone seen this yet? Opinions?

If it's broken, fix it.
If it isn't broken, I'll soon fix that.

I've never played many online multiplayer-type games that are in a massive crowd. However, I have watched the first twenty minutes of this film - I have to say it was rather well done. I would say it's up to if not a bit above the quality of a lot of the televised documentaries I've seen So, very good job on valves part!

Yeah, I think the point it's trying to make about professional gaming becoming a much larger deal and how this event in 2011 was one of, if not THE thing to turn the scene on its head and becoming a profitable career / way of life (and Twitch is now a huge component of this alongside tourneys) is illustrated by the video very well. Having a personal story with three different team members made it more engaging as a non-Dota player. Anyone who believes in gaming for a living and wants inspiration or just a nice story about the 2011 Dota tournament and what it meant for gamers should watch this video.
