When I first saw Role Models, I couldn't wait to start larping again... Did anyone else think 'The Mug' and Face Burgers when they all went to 'The Burger Hole'?
But really. Think about putting the idea of Larp into a film. You either set the film about some kids larping and have a low budget LOTR, or you look at it for what it is. Hell we have all had those moments where we stand there, sleepy, smelly and dressed like an elf in the middle of December thinking 'what the hell am I doing?' while beating the snot out of your Ex with plumbing supplies.
Larp is one of those things that you either get or you don’t...like stamp collecting or train spotting... if you don't get it, the movie would be boring and so you sensationalise for a better received script, movie and broader interest. People understand 'Comedy' they also get 'Horror', but not everyone gets 'I spend thousands on fake swords and cake make-up'
