Space Channel 5: Part 2 in Swing Girls
Just got reminded of this great scene in Grosse Pointe Blank where the guy plays Arcade DOOM 2 (?) with headphones (Motorhead) while a shoot-out happens behind him
Great Red Wings hat, too
I didn’t have time to screencap them but there was Game Boy usage in both Fear and The Good Son. in both instances it looked like Tetris but impossible to tell.
that’s right, garry shandling playing super mario bros 2 (us) over the end credits of an episode of it’s garry shandling’s show
Note the 90s Faygo bottles too
a young james david vance plays Killer Instinct Gold with his corrupting bong blasting asian stepbrother
then Game Boy Pocket Tetris, soon to be traded in for a Texas Instruments Calculator for the sake of an education thanks to Mamaw*
surprise surprise: this movie sucks ass
*not literally traded in for to afford it even though the $80 calculator is a major expense for them and the Game Boy is imo explicitly set up to frame JD’s slacking on his studies…there’s a lot of weird split second inferences and odd directs like the incomplete marquee spelling of For–st Gump as he speeds by on his bike (to steal said calculator) or the close up of a document reading “Hilary, Libya, file” that his gf puts her iphone down on after a dramatic call with adult JD, reconvening with her colleagues who are discussing whether objectivity exists and every legal case is subjective??? but I digress, for my own sanity
I’ve been trying to remember what movie this was for years!
Super Pong in Sinai Field Mission (1978)
Enemy of the State and Deja Vu would make a great double feature for a few reasons. among them is Tony Scott’s appreciation for the handheld gaming system. I have an SP in this very colour myself
SPOILERS: the SP and the kid are not long for this world…
Mii Channel in Rap World
at least one of them owns a copy of elebits
Anora keeping bad video game acting alive and well. I guess you could say it fits his character, he plays like he fucks but…it’s kinda distractingly ridiculous
is it some Gears of War game?
When he flipped his right hand over to press the face buttons with his fingertips I nearly screamed. He better be playing fuckin Super Turbo
i was laughing so fucking hard at how he handled that controller hahahah
