Pac-Man: The Movie, not coming to any theaters near you

by Conrad Quilty-Harper { Jun 1st 2006 at 6:10PM }

In my opinion, the concept behind this home-made trailer for a fictional Pac-Man movie surpasses that of any other full length movie based on a game. Not that it's got much competition. Choice quote: "It looked like some kind of man, some kind of... Pac-man."

[Thanks, Justin]

Just...just fantastic, really.

I sure hope this was a student film or something... because if people filmed this for fun... well then they are just a bunch of turds.

Uwe Boll and Paul Anderson in the credits - too funny! You know its bogus because this trailer is MUCH better than what they would have done!

vidGuy @ Jun 1st 2006 6:44PM

Worth the time, but it would have been a million times better if the PacMan said "WaccaWacca" instead of those cheesy Arnold lines.

Losers

Haha, that was pretty cool. Anyone else notice that the credits said "Uwe Boll Presents" ? LMAO!

Geoff @ Jun 1st 2006 7:01PM

That was great. The Ms. Pac-Man on the motorcycle at the very end was really funny.

burn23 @ Jun 1st 2006 7:12PM

they better make a short film out of that.. it looks like they've got enough footage..

I would totally pay to see it

"I'm gonna need some backup!" I cried at that. PacMan as some sort of modern drug addict vigilante. Perfect.

I'd see this before I'd see Bloodrayne.

I swear, Joystiq, you posted this before. Either you, Kotaku, or Digg.

Why is pac-man a guy in a biker suit....come on now..he should get the huge yellow pac-man suit.

The ZeroCorpse @ Jun 1st 2006 10:05PM

I saw this already, and though it was sort of lame. The story bears no resemblance to Pac Man. It looks like something Uwe Boll would have made.

Mildly funny, in that "requires drugs to be funny" kind of way.

Mike @ Jun 1st 2006 11:02PM

I laughed. I also liked how I saw uwe boll in the credits lol. I was deffenitly waiting for a "wakka wakka" line to pop-up, but nothing came.

martin @ Jun 2nd 2006 7:05AM

I actually have a man I pass to work on a bike in a yellow suit chanting Wakka Wakka. He must be some kind of... Pac-man.

cap-n-crunch @ Jun 2nd 2006 8:08AM

I loved it!! That freakin ruled. Almost as much as that movie trailer about the Robin movie. Where he avenges batmans death.

While this trailer is clearly a joke, the Pac-Man movie appears not to be:

It's a sad, sad world.

Awesome movie. I always enjoy seeing what creative fans out there are working on. Maybe we'll be fortunate enough to have Pac Man the Movie the Game!!!
