If you always wanted to prove your geek credentials, here's the deal for you: For their documentary "Comic-Con Episode Four: A Fan's Hope," Morgan Spurlock, Stan Lee and Joss Whedon are looking for "original, eccentric, funny, touching and mildly obsessive people that will capture the excitement, enthusiasm, joy and passion of comic book, anime, sci-fi, and fantasy lovers everywhere." One might ask how filmmakers can "cast" a documentary and still have it be, well, a documentary, rather than a freak -- er, reality show. Shouldn't they go on a stealth nerd search, and develop this thing organically? In any event, if you believe you're the most hardcore fanboy out there, go for it.
