They've already got Battleships and Stretch Armstrong (I"m completely serious) movies in the works.  They've completely emptied the barrel and are scooping out soggy wood at this point.

Personally, I'm waiting till we start scooping out floor. That should be interesting.

Maybe my dream movie about Commodore 64 characters will come true!

Jumpman, Frantic Freddy, Dig Dug(doug?) and Hard Hat Mack come together in an epic adventure to save the world!

So my mom drives me to the computer place since I couldn't find it.  We find it, the guy seems pretty honest and competent (and a little weird, woo!) so my computer seems to be in good hands.  Suddenly my mom is like "Oo there's a deli!  Ooo there's a bakery!  Ooo there's a AUSTRALIAN PIE SHOP MUST NOM NOM"  So we go in the pie shop, which it turns out it's a MEAT CIRCUS pie shop, much to my mom's dismay.  I already knew it was a meat pie shop 'cause I read the sign outside o_O  Then mom orders two pies even though she doesn't seem all that enthusiastic about it, and snaps at me when I try to point out how weird she's acting.  Then in the car, she says she HAD to get the pies because we walked into the store, and it's the nice thing to do.  I... don't get it.  So it wasn't what we expected, just walk out, it's fine.  Why do we have to drop $10 on something we could easily make at home for cheaper?  They didn't even taste that special, honestly...

The rights to create a movie based on the game Space Invaders were recently bought and they are hoping to make the film. Somehow.

The brave hero fought with courage, but eventuallly ran out of dollars and had to ask his mother for some more. When he returned, it was too late

THAT should be the plot to the movie.

If they are going to make a game based off of an old arcade game it should be Sinistar.  A giant head that eats spaceships?  This could be a good B-movie.

On the topic of dog bites: one family rule we have is that if a dog purposefully bites one of us then doom and terror descends upon that dog. The behavior tends not to repeat itself afterwards.

Pong?

Someone beat you to it.

doom and terror

And what does this mean exactly?

Hell no why waste those franchises by making only one movie. They will get a movie each. Seriously they are going to be that desperate soon. The "sign of the times" will be when they remake "Land of the Giants". They seem to be avoiding that one, but will remake it once they're desperate enough.

There's a ton of obscure games to be made into movies. It'll be like a fresh vein of blood cut open once they start. Bayonetta, Joanna Dark, Duke Nukem would be good places to start.

Scare the dog so bad he can never so much as look at a raw fish without putting his tail between his legs and whimpering.

I could have lived the rest of my life in peace without that knowledge. I'm firmly convinced that Hollywood will not rest until they've finished assraping every last one of my childhood memories.

I mean, where does the madness end?
Hungry Hungry Hippos?
Rock, Paper, Scissors: The Final Battle?
Monopoly?.....wait, whaddya mean they're actually doing that one? WITH RIDLEY F**KING SCOTT??!?

The article says that they haven't made a movie about the Ouija Board yet. They've made several thousand. There just happens to be a new one in the works.

The top Republican in the Senate proposed on Tuesday giving President Barack Obama sweeping new power to, in effect, unilaterally increase the nation's debt limit to avoid a first-ever default on U.S. obligations.

What is this I don't even.

Some of the Republicans may be against raising the debt ceiling, but the U.S. defaulting might sort of.....crash the global economy. Forever.
