But here’s one I *would* watch: A dramatization set in 1988 to 1991 where Domino’s lands the official product placement in the live action TMNT movie, then gets outmaneuvered by Pizza Hut for ads all over the VHS release!
neutral · AI labelView post →I was just reminded that the Tetris movie exists, and now you all have to suffer with me again.
negative · AI labelView post →Im enjoying the Tetris movie, we need more stories making game dev look far more exciting then iv ever experienced. They get to do things like leave the office and go places! That’s escapism right there.
positive · AI labelView post →Apple had that godawful Tetris movie and the recent one with Ryan Reynolds too and both were DOOOOOGGGGGSHIT. Like very obvious and clunky propaganda pictures. Compare that to something more natural like top gun and it’s just a night and day difference.
negative · AI labelView post →What happened between Sega, Namco, and Sammy in the early 2000s is a story I'd love to see dramatised in a Tetris movie-style way.
neutral · AI labelView post →John Mulaney may be portraying video game executive Trip Hawkins, but I doubt he'll end up in a chase scene with the KGB like Nintendo executive Howard Lincoln in the Tetris movie
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching Tetris movie on AppleTV+ and hell yeah it's about how bad the Soviet Union was
positive · AI labelView post →Tangentially related, I have a tinfoil hat theory that the rise in docutainment (Air Jordans movie, Tetris movie, Seinfeld's upcoming movie about pop tarts) is an attempt to cash in on the popularity of the youtube doc, but with none of the unbiased frankness of an independent documentarian
neutral · AI labelView post →Claude’s new rules against game cloning won’t stop the AI copying boom. Last week, Anthropic introduced a new system prompt designed to stop its Claude models from re-creating specific, existing video games. While that move could help shield Anthropic from some liability, it’s unlikely to slow much of the massive wave of AI-assisted game porting and copying that has emerged in recent months. A social media user and AI decompilation enthusiast going by the name “chasm” was among the first to…
neutral · AI labelView post →I expect gameboys were pretty popular with movie actors of the era, where you spend a lot of time on set waiting. Which raises the obvious question: which famous 60+ actors can absolutely crush all comers at Tetris?
neutral · AI labelView post →Did the Apple TV Tetris movie seriously use Game Grumps footage to represent Punch-Out??
neutral · AI labelView post →Listened to this yesterday - it was great. Reminds me that Games Workshop is a genuine UK success story both culturally and financially, yet doesn't get the praise it deserves Someone needs to do a Tetris or Air style film of it's story.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Tetris movie is an entertaining dramatization of it's and his story, and I'll also recommend cosying up with this video from the Gaming Historian to learn more about the twists and turns of the Tetris story.
positive · AI labelView post →Shit it's only been a few months and I'm already confusing the Tetris movie with the Blackberry movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →They could plausibly do a biopic about the early days of the industry, but to be frank after that Tetris movie I wouldn't trust a studio with anything more difficult than staring at a cantaloupe.

neutral · AI labelView post →Wow this live action Tetris film looks intense.
neutral · AI labelView post →That Tetris movie was crazy. I started it thinking it would be an interesting look at all the weird licensing fights to publish Tetris outside the USSR and it was like 10% that and 90% Red Dawn.
neutral · AI labelView post →Tried to watch the 2023 Tetris movie. had to turn it off. easily one of the worst "films" I've ever tried to endure. contrived, fake conversations. rooms of handsome actors coughing one-liners at each other. Why am I watching a movie about a producer? I want to see Alexey Pajitnov programming
negative · AI labelView post →what property are you going to make into a horror movie when its copyright expires? Tetris for me. it'll be like Saw but Tetris with the body parts and so forth
neutral · AI labelView post →(person who recently watched the Tetris movie) hey this is just the plot of the Tetris movie
neutral · AI labelView post →If you didn't knew him, I can't recommend his videos enough. The Story of Tetris video made me learn about the story of Tetris development even before the Tetris movie came out (and that's one of my favourite movies ever). The SMB3 and SMW videos are also some of my favorite YouTube videos ever 🙂↕️
neutral · AI labelView post →Yesterday I watched Tetris (the movie) Today I made Tetris (in #GodotEngine) Compared to the other old school 2D games that I've made this one is the first that need a complete rewrite around the 4 hour mark when I realised the approach i was taking totally wouldn't work!
neutral · AI labelView post →watch the Tetris movie on apple TV RIGHT NOW!!!!!! DO IT!!!!!! WATCH THE TETRIS MOVIE!!! OOOOO YOU WANT TO WATCH THE TETRIS MOVIE ON APPLE TV SOOOOOOO BAD RN
positive · AI labelView post →If producers are still looking for film ideas centred around popular consumer products (Air, Tetris, Blackberry) may I suggest a rise-and-fall tale about the Shape Up And Dance label which somehow went from squeaky-clean Felicity Kendal to this filth in the space of just three years.
neutral · AI labelView post →Still can't believe Apple TV's Tetris movie was so goddamn well recieved when it was quite literally the cringiest most blatant anti-communist propaganda ever and just repeatedly lies about the story of the game's localisation for no reason
negative · AI labelView post →Happy 36th birthday to GameBoy Tetris! One of my favorite games. I have seen the Tetris movie twice and I love Tetris 99 online ❤️ Do you love the blocks? #retrogaming #tetris
positive · AI labelView post →If Hollywood can green light a Pacman and Tetris movie, I need, no I goddamn deserve a Trapper Keeper movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →crazy that 2 of the villains in the Tetris movie (and in real life) are Ghislaine Maxwell’s father and brother
neutral · AI labelView post →I feel so spoiled to be able to catch the annual Women in Gaming event at the Strong Museum of Play, with all these amazing women in the industry sharing their story. Currently hearing from the CEO of Tetris, Maya Rogers ♥️ Yes, the daughter of Henk Rogers ☺️ (go watch the Tetris movie btw)

It will apparently feature musical numbers "in the vein of Barbie". (Read more: The Hollywood Reporter)

neutral · AI labelView post →The Tetris movie on Apple TV was not very good
negative · AI labelView post →Highly recommend the Tetris movie. tv.apple.com/us/movie/tet...
positive · AI labelView post →Any movie based on a game is terrible (exception: the D&D movie, more a credit to D&D than Hollywood). TETRIS is not *based on* a game, it's the *history of* the game and surprisingly dramatic & interesting. It's wild to revisit the 80s in this moment, but instructive. And the movie is a delight.
positive · AI labelView post →The Tetris movie was surprisingly good in part because it covered the massive Robert Maxwell embezzlement stuff.
positive · AI labelView post →I'm still incredibly curious to know why a Tetris movie of all things has a cover of "Holding Out For A Hero" in it. Also this cover slaps. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AitG...
neutral · AI labelView post →I want so badly to make a Drunk History style show but all about nerd history like video games and the bonkers shit that has happened in the comic, film, and TV industry. Can you imagine so sloppy video essayist explaining the story behind Tetris?
neutral · AI labelView post →9. Apple TV hosted a cinema screening of the Tetris movie adjacent to GDC that year. This is a branded popcorn bucket from that showing.
neutral · AI labelView post →I don’t think “he was distracted because he was trying to film it on his phone “ excuses anything, any more than “he crashed the plane because he got really into his Tetris game during the landing” would.

neutral · AI labelView post →I will continue to be angry that the Tetris movie was about the game’s creation and not an actual adaptation of the games mechanics like Battleship.
negative · AI labelView post →Few times already stumbled upon this #Tetris movie..never had a chance to see it..worth it ? #friday #movienight #indiedev
neutral · AI labelView post →Oh, I dunno, the Russian cover from the Tetris movie comes pretty damn close. Or the Japanese version in Bullet Train.
neutral · AI labelView post →I can already see the hate this is gonna get. Oh Zach. It’s a shame you weren’t old enough to make movies when Canon film group was in business. The two of you would’ve fit like game boy and Tetris.
neutral · AI labelView post →I had been wanting to rewatch the Tetris movie for a while, and finally did it today! I loved this movie back when it released, but it was pretty apparent that it is a BIG dramatization of all the events that happened for Henk Rogers to get the Tetris rights. A lot of exagerations, things [1/2]
positive · AI labelView post →The movie categorically states that Tetris on game boy is literally why the Soviet Union collapsed and I think that rules
neutral · AI labelView post →#Tetris Film Tetris 🕹️ | tv+ Fun and stylish film, 8-bit nostalgia meets 80s espionage Taron Egerton is great
positive · AI labelView post →Finally saw the Tetris movie. Was a lot more interesting that I thought it would be. I had no idea that the story behind it was that crazy. Would recommend.
positive · AI labelView post →God, what have I done that was so awful that I deserved to be reminded of the existence of the Tetris® movie today? 🙏
negative · AI labelView post →I'll do the thing of things I like: • Smash Bros. • Fire Emblem • Smiling Friends • Ace Attorney • Splatoon • Mario • Gay shit • Tetris • Film, mostly animation • Animal Crossing • Hollow Knight • Persona • Pikmin • Pokémon • Kitties • Raising Cane's Let's be friends yay #promosky
neutral · AI labelView post →Okay, if I take nothing else from this movie, Alison playing Tetris in her mind and humming the song will stay with me forever. #FrightClub #DoubleBlind
neutral · AI labelView post →Hell yes The Black Onyx! Henk Rogers is much better known today as the Tetris guy (not the creator but the other guy, the one played by Taron Egerton in the film) but he did really landmark work on RPGs before that.
neutral · AI labelView post →I miss the PS2/Xbox era of Mortal Kombat. The games were flawed as hell, but I still enjoyed them and the story didn't feel like a Marvel film. Deception, in particular, was absolutely incredible, with its open-world story mode and chess and Tetris minigames. Just awesome.
