And being with Chris.

[sighs]

Chris is 1 in 10 billion.

He's somebody

who's able to fixate

On something

that he's passionate about

In the extreme,

Far beyond

what most--

Any mortal man

will do.

Yes, most ordinary,

mortal men would do.

And, uh, yeah,

Obsessive doesn't even begin

to really describe it,

But, um, I'm not sure

if there are words

Existing in our language

to describe--

Only on krypton.

Yeah, well, that's--

I think--

There you go.

I think that's

what it is.

It may be that we would find

the appropriate words

And emphases fully

on another planet.

This is four years,

four years in the making.

And we've got--

Every one

on that shelf over there

Is all superman-related

as well.

We spent about

$70,000 to $80,000,

Maybe even $90,000 worth

of merchandise.

You haven't been back this way

real quick.

(Bonnie)

hey, what are you

doing here?

We can zip off

into that way.

Yeah, but I'm going

that way.

(Dennis)

we're starting to put

some posters up in here.

This is gonna be like a poster

and action figure room.

We got a lot of action figures

on the walls

And stuff here as well.

How much would I guess

it's worth?

I would probably say

That we're probably sitting

close to $1 million or more.

I've never seen someone

so taken in by--

It's like he's suffocating

in the world of superman.

Suffocating, no--

He has suffocated.

He cannot breathe anymore.

That is the only thing

that he knows,

But that's part of his charm.

I am wonder woman

on Hollywood boulevard

At Manns Chinese theater--

Not with Manns Chinese theater,

just at Manns Chinese theater.

(man)

where are you from?

I'm from Knoxville,

Tennessee.

I thought you were

from Maynardville.

Okay, I'm from Maynardville,

But nobody knows

that hole in the wall.

Um, there's, like, a population

Of between

2,000 to 2,500 people.

My grandpa is the judge

of the town.

My dad's a minister.

My mom and my aunt

run the union farmer's co-op.

(Fred Wenger)

her name--Jenny--

You named her after a horse,

didn't you?

Jenny?

Yeah, you know,

that's--

The mule--the female mule

is a Jenny,

And the--

she's stubborn as a mule.

She's gonna really enjoy

that you told about that.

The male donkey

is a Jack,

And the female's
