Here's an official Synopsis of the film.




Here's the Pixels Short Film the movie is based on.

I am insanely hesitant about this movie. I LOVED the short it's based on and when I head that a full length movie was going to be made based on the concept I started to worry because Hollywood has a tendency to ruin cool ideas like this.

Then the casting of Adam Sandler and Kevin James were announced and then I started to get my first big signs of a possible disaster. Even worse is that it's coming from Happy Madison Productions and it's being written by a writer of all of Adam Sandler's movies. I REALLY want to be excited and have hope for this movie. Hope the trailer will relieve those worries.

But Chris Columbus is the director though, It should be in good hands.

To me, the director doesn't mean much of anything because the most important thing about a movie is the story and if the story is weak, bad or poorly written then it's going to take a lot to save the movie. This is particularly important when it comes to comedies because a poorly written or executed joke is painful. "Dumb and Dumber To" is a huge recent example of how painful a bad comedy can be. Plus, we are talking about the Happy Madison team so that's already a major red flag.

Dude.

Peter Dinklage with a mullet. How can you not want to see this? :tlol:

Yeah, Hes playing a Billy Mitchell type character.

The trailer is expected to be online at 4:30pm PST 7:30pm EST today, In the meantime, check out these posters.

Here's the Pixels Trailer

Just watched the trailer and while I am still hesitant about the movie I will see definitely see this in theaters out of sheer curiosity. The movie looks good from what little was shown but it was mostly footage of the video game characters which I am totally fine with because I'm more excited about seeing them than the human cast. The trailer didn't really give any sense of the type of humor the movie will have, however. The only real joke that was featured (Tōru Iwatani meeting Pac-Man) was so predictable they really just killed the joke before they could even set it up. Not good. Still it was cool to see especially if that really is Tōru Iwatani playing himself.

Actually that was an actor playing Tōru Iwatani, not the real one.

Hollywood needs to stop giving Adam Sandler movies to be in. Sandler hasn't been in anything good since Happy Gilmore Billy Madison and The Waterboy.

This looks so cool. Can't believe I'm barely finding out about this. I really like Adam Sandler and Kevin James.

People really need to get off the whole "Hollywood will ruin it" and "These actors suck" things. It's the same stupid complaints everywhere.

Hollywood has always been the same. They didn't just suddenly go bad over the time we grew up. That's just dumb. The 80s and 90s were not as perfect as people make them.

I remember reading about this and not being interested at all because of the actors involved but the trailer won me over, this looks like stupid fun.

exactly right

I'll post other GIFs later, Right now I'm going to bed. :)

why is adam sandler remaking 1/3 of a futurama episode and taking everything funny out of it

why is peter dinklage in an adam sandler movie

why

It doesn't feel like an Adam Sandler movie to me.

I gotta admit, I'm really on the fence about this as well. To be honest, the only two things I'm interested in seeing are the digitized Pac-Man and Donkey Kong. Everything else just looks like your basic alien invasion type stuff. Now if they were to promote Super Mario, I'd be super psyched.

At the risk of making myself sound bad, I've never really understood what was wrong with Adam Sandler. Sure he's no god of comedy, but he's not terrible either?

...Though honestly I want to see this just for Pac-Man.
