There is no Academy Award category for "best school documentary."

I thought this was a misleading post. I'd put it in quotes:
"Will the Dark Knight Project win an Oscar for best school documentary?"
The story of some high school kids pursuing rumors of the Batman. 15-minute video.
or something. Making the level of meta clear helps avoid people answering what appears to be a misinformed rhetorical question or something.

Oh, so it's only 11 minutes or so, then credits.

Using Chicago as the setting was a good idea.

I was disappointed that they didn't run into Six-Pack when they went into the alleyway.

Wow, that dialogue was almost awkward enough to be in a Kevin Smith film.

There used to be student documentary academy awards. Bob Saget won one for Through Adam's Eyes.

That's right. Bob Fucking Saget.

I was going to complain about how it was a .mov file link but, wow, that fake-trailer is great.

Don't you know who I am? I'm the goddamn batman! Get out of my sight line!

That wasn't to bad.

I don't think that was a documentary.

Also, they missed the point of the Blair Witch Project, if that was intended to be a mashup.
