Welcome to Season  4! Or, if you believe my confused narration, Season 3!***

This time we review "Angry Birds", where a 2 minute mobile game has mutated into a 90 minute cartoon that's maybe for kids (but maybe not). Can this little piggy's house survive the weight of all that extra exposition, or are they right when they say less is more? Strap into your slingshot and find out!

CONTENT WARNING: carnivorous pigs, unsanitary drinking conditions, exploding fetuses, mild language.

Featuring the voices of Marc Athanas, Wayne Bressette, and Nick Mohr.

***In my defense, these all started to blur together sometime after Legend of Chun-Li...

We close out our recent batch of video game related films with the 80's classic, "The Running Man". Let's consult the video game check list...

An ex-soldier for our protagonist, framed for crimes he didn't commit?

A deadly contest that risks the player's life in exchange for prizes if they win?

A group of killer bosses with gimmicky powers to hunt our hero?

A trio of weaker characters with bad pathfinding scripts that need to be escorted through the area?

If you can't see how this is a video game come to life, we don't know how to help you. It's time for Arnold to GIT GUD!

CONTENT WARNING: mass murder, aggressive contact signing, murder for sport, government propaganda, attempted rape by a Christmas tree, mild language.

Featuring the voices of Marc Athanas, Wayne Bressette, and Nick Mohr.

Are video games the catalyst for World War III? We review "War Games", where a young Ferris Bueller showcases the most believable hacking skills in any Hollywood movie to outwit the most unbelievable portrayal of NORAD in any Hollywood movie. Real winners don't share gum!

CONTENT WARNING: Global Thermonuclear War, dumb teenagers, dumber government agents, unorthodox corncob buttering, unplanned stunt crashing, mild language.

Featuring the voices of Marc Athanas, Wayne Bressette, and Nick Mohr.

A stranger rolls into town, and he's come to Willy's Wonderland to clean house...

Nicolas Cage stars as "The Janitor", mercilessly and methodically hunting down Willy and his friends in a night of survival horror. It's a Final Girl picture like you've never seen before!

50 episodes and we're still here? We've come back so many times, it defies the Konami code!

To celebrate, we're going back to the well (or tomb?) of Lara Croft, and watching the 2001 original with Angelina Jolie. Are star power and shower scenes more important than fight choreography or a coherent narrative? Paramount Pictures definitely thought so!

CONTENT WARNING: killer robots, The Illuminati, big guns (pistols), BIG GUNS (boobs), sex face, mild language.

Featuring the voices of Marc Athanas, Wayne Bressette, and Nick Mohr.

First he was stuck inside Pikachu. Now he's stuck inside Grand Theft Auto. Is the secret to a good time just getting Ryan Reynolds inside of you? Join us for "Free Guy", a digital hero's journey that proves robots are way better at being good people than actual people are. 

CONTENT WARNING: intellectual property theft, existential crisis, robosexuality, a very special sock, mild language.

We're back with another bonus round of video game related films!

Join us as we travel to the apocalyptic future of 1997 to review "Turbo Kid", where water is scarce and BMX bikes are plentiful. Will our off-brand Mega Man save the future and repair his girlfriend's broken hearts? 

CONTENT WARNING: torture, execution, killer robots, extreme arm wrestling, mild language.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, ONE AND ALL!

We all must have been good little boys and girls, because we have a special treat this year. We asked for it, we searched for it, we prayed for it, and now it's here under the tree. It's a feature length film about video games that’s ALSO a Christmas film. Truly, a video game movie miracle!

It's a Kryptonian party pooper with a fire in his eyes that'll ruin your whole democracy!

We review the animated film Injustice, where DC asks the question, "What would Superman do for a follow up, after the domestic abuse of his pregnant wife?" Yes, you read that right.
