“You don’t know the pieces you are going to get… One day you will get that piece you need, you will find that success.” IGN has revealed the first official trailer for a documentary film titled Blue Scuti: Tetris Crasher, which is premiering in the next few weeks at the 2025 Tribeca Film Festival. This is the story of the kid who beat Tetris! For real! Willis Gibson, who was only 13 when he pulled this off, known online as “Blue Scuti”, is an American classic Tetris player from Stillwater, OK. He is best known for becoming the first person to “beat the game” of Tetris in December 2023, after he triggered a game crash on the previously unreached level 157. This doc from director Chris Moukarbel takes a look at his story and more about the legacy behind video game achievements. “Thirteen-year-old Willis Gibson’s life changes overnight when he becomes the first to beat Tetris. It explores grief, community, and the rise of an unexpected internet icon.” I love a good doc that takes a simple (nerdy) story and turns into so much more, something exciting and life-affirming to watch, with extra context that makes it a great revelatory experience. 🕹 This looks dang good.
