I found out that the movie was about Canucks fans after buying tickets online. Uh, should have read the synopsis before forking over $34.

What: A Canucks movie for all who love the Canucks, the film FOREVER FAITHFUL is a 93-minute story following 38 years of passionate Canucks fans. Premiering Nov 10th in select theatres, the film takes an inside look at the Canucks, following the team on and off the ice for a full season.

Cons:
-did not go into great depth about the previous 37 years (WTF)
-not enough player accounts/voice overs/view from their perspective/behind the scenes stuff
-did not cover Luc's death, although at the end they did show a picture of him with "In Memory of Luc Bourdon", which was greeted with a moment of silence and a single "Aw."
-Given the gift of hindsight, everyone in the audience knew how the season ended... I was waiting to cringe as March came and the team imploded on itself. Reliving it was like nails-on-a-chalk board.
-ignored Luongo's baby troubles
-the screeching when the fans were individually mic-ed at hockey games
--they played the movie from a bluray disc and had issues with the colour and had to stop it a couple of times --> LOL.
-one of the fans reminded me of that annoying Italian Pango Pizza guy on tv

Pros:
-Morrison! God, I was happy to see him. So happy. Crap, I should be following him with the Ducks, but I just haven't been.
-Linden ♥ - Nice of them to ignore the 7-1 thrashing in the final game of the regular season.
-Nazzy - Hope NY is treating him well.
-Nonis. :[
-PYATT SCORING. Yeah, I miss that.
-some of the fans were interesting and their stories heart warming
-saw that horrible game against Darwin's Predators where Bieksa got that leg laceration and a puck hit Salo's face and blood poured onto the ice as his hands shook --> then the 'Nucks rallied and kicked ass the next couple of months
-it made me tear up a lot, but I'm like that
-THERE WAS A HUGE TWILIGHT STAND OF BELLA & EDWARD. I got my brother to take a photo, so I'll post it later.

Overall: Not worth the price of admission, but it was semi-interesting.
