Title: Atari Movie!
Post by: NESman93 on June 10, 2008, 09:55:48 PM
For those who havent heard, there are plans for an Atari movie, which will show the life and times of Atari creator, Nolan Bushnell, who will be played by Leonardo DiCaprio. The movie will simply be called "Atari."

They are going to make a movie version of Akira? Wonder how that'll be. (sorry found out about it following two_scoop_steve's link)

Not sure how interesting a movie about a game company's rise 'n' fall will be. Will have to wait and see I guess.

Meanwhile gamers everywhere are hit with a -2 modifier to their Charisma and take damage from a 2D8 weapon with anti-masculinity damage.

*sigh*

That Akira movie is the worst news I've heard since they announced the Donnie Darko sequel. Why can't they just let things be?

I'll wait for it to come out on DVD but it sounds like it could be good.

They should make a 2600 game especially to celebrate, and get everyone to dig out their old 2600s. RF Gen would no doubt have it scanned and databased well before most sites too ;)
