When I contacted Ron Gilbert about the documentary, he told me "you need to talk to Brad Taylor". And talk to him I will. He goes by @lardratboy.bsky.social on here, and you'll hear lots of tech stories and insights from him if the doc goes ahead.

Written and directed by award-winning journalist, historian, and documentary filmmaker Richard Moss (TerrorBytes: The Evolution of Horror Gaming, The Secret History of Mac Gaming, A Tale of Two Halves: The History of Football Video Games), Passport to Adventure will peer behind the troop of three-headed monkeys and into the world's largest ball of twine to discover the inner workings of both the games and the engine that revolutionized a genre and ushered in a golden age of point-and-click adventures.

Written and directed by award-winning journalist, historian, and documentary filmmaker Richard Moss (TerrorBytes: The Evolution of Horror Gaming, The Secret History of Mac Gaming, A Tale of Two Halves: The History of Football Video Games), Passport to Adventure will peer behind the troop of three-headed monkeys and into the world's largest ball of twine to discover the inner workings of both the games and the engine that revolutionized a genre and ushered in a golden age of point-and-click adventures.

Guided by interviews with key figures from the LucasArts SCUMM era, the film will be a joyful and in-depth retrospective journey through the travails of SCUMM development, the litany of influences and Easter eggs, the magnificent art, and the best (and worst) moments of the entire lineup of games made with the SCUMM engine โ€” including the first three Monkey Islands, Sam & Max Hit the Road, Maniac Mansion, Loom, and many more.

We'll have more to share about our plans for the documentary in early 2026. Follow us on social media and join our waitlist at scummdoc.com to stay up to date.

It's unlikely right now due to the large amount of sales required to make a big manufacturing order. One of the reasons we run the sales campaign is we can take a lot of orders at once and determine how many units need created. Our last timed sales campaign was probably our last print unfortunately!
