Hop Onto A Flying Ostrich Thingie!! There's A JOUST Movie Coming?!?! Remember JOUST??
Merrick here...
We shoulda said something about this one last week, but it slipped through the cracks.
Anyway...
Back in 1982, I used to play the video game Joust all the time. And, as often as I tried, I always sucked at it...but that never stopped me.
In case you don't remember the game, it's the one with the flying Ostrich thingie that you fly around on while try to knock other players off of flying their flying ostrich thingies.
It had floating sky islands you materialized from, could land on during combat, etc. These islands always reminded me a little bit of De Laurentiis' FLASH GORDON.
The game looked like this:
Anyways, there's a movie being mulled by a company called CP Productions.
Cerenzie calls the new script by Marc Gottlieb "Gladiator meets Mad Max." The film is set 25 years in the future and includes a Las Vegas suspended in mid-air.
says THIS ARTICLE at GameDaily, where the news initially emerged last week.
Variety also talks about the film this morning.
Not surprisingly, there's also talk to revamping the video game itself to bring it into sync with the film.
A floating Vegas, hunh? Why am I'm having flashbacks to the SUPER MARIO BROS movie.
PLAY THE GAME HERE!!!

Seriously.
-
first
-
...last week
-
If you want to spell it right.
-
Yes, that was an actual movie in development once...Bring on QBert, the motion picture!
-
Big on special effects and things being blowed up real good. Plot? Not so much.
-
That's hilarious. Some things your memory just won't let you forget. Now as a movie... I'm have serious questions. But alas, we are in the remake/ rehash era. The only question is what old idea are we going to see next. It's a sad commentary when new ideas/ innovation in cinema are squashed by "safe approaches" with established fanbases (which by the way get crapped on anyone once the movie comes out- see Transformers) and tv is dominated by cheap reality shows (screwing scores of real actors, writers, etc.). But I digress. So Joust... yeah, I'll be interested to see what they do here. Peace.
-
Like Good Burger, only goodlier.
-
Best.Game.Ever.
-
Seriously, what's next?
-
Joust the movie? Flying Ostriches??This is gonna kick ass!
-
Q-Bert
-
It's what's below the surface that matters.
-
Starring the Rock- he'll star in anything these days, right?
-
Ok...that might be good.
-
you know you want it.
-
But at least RobotJox knew that it sucked, so it was cool.
-
Its just too much!! Mindless Robots!! It doesn't get any better!!
-
I enjoyed playing it. I suppose one advantage in adapting it to the big screen is the creative freedom it allows, since there wasn't much of a story behind the game, the original anyway.
-
Bank Heist!!! Air Sea Battle!! AHHHHHHHH!! Must search attic. Must find 2600!!
-
Eesh...
I hope Callista Flockhart and Sarah Jessica Parker play the ostriches. -
Maybe they want to push this a little bit further into the future if they want to do shit like that. Seems to me that they want to accomplish an Apocolypse, ensuing new world order of dog eat dog ideology, and also somehow amidst that chaos invent some sort of suspensor that will levitate a whole city. Um right. They are really irkin the nerd in me. Oh, and this is a horrible idea. Even when games had no plot, or point, this was a pointless game.
-
When's Frogger or Horace goes Skiing coming out?

"We shoulda said something about this one last week.."
by lando griffin
actually "month" is more like it. But thats the story at this site the last couple of years.
-
I'll wait for JOUST II: INSERT TWO COINS.
-
if merrick wrote a particular shit article based solely on the annoying shit headline. Phrases like "thingie" and "actionier" don't come off too well, you dumb fucking moron. GET FIRED AND DIE!
-
stating that the video game movie he would make is Dig Dug, with Bruce Willis blowing up monsters underneath the surface of the earth ala Armegeddon...
-
Something tells me this will be more "Hardware" meets "Android Apocolypse" in terms of production values.
-
Get 'em before they hatch!
-
... when they hook up antigrav generators to Las Vegas and clone a race of superintelligent flying ostriches that people in ancient knight's armor ride around on... yyyyyYeah okay! But where's my Dig Doug movie? I wanna see mutant gophers killed by having steams of water from a fire hose shot into their mouths until they messily explode in a rain of gopher guts!
-
Yes, I can envision it now: Directed by Michael Bay!!! Starring Brad Pitt, Auhnold, and Robert DeNiro as the mayors of the three cities!!! Samuel Jackson as the baddie controlling the terrorist-commie card-carrying-pinko-fag invaders!!! And who else but Viggo Mortensen as the leader of the missile launchers defending our great civilizations!!! Can't wait for the DVD!!!!!!
-
What a great idea! And it just HAS to star Jason Alexander as the frog!!!
-
Starring Wicky Wicky Wa Wa Big Willy Smith?Or PitStop starring Nic CageOr Gauntlet or Golden Axe, actually Golden Axe or Space Harrier would be fooking Cool!Have Dolph Lungren play the Space Harrier with Huge 3D CG dragons in full on 4D!!!What about R-Type Starring, Oh who fucking cares...Or Green Beret or Double Dragon or Comando, Tron, Rambo, Starwars arcade... Oh wait weird cross-over thing happening where Hollywood is sooooo out of fucking ideas it's started making games of old 70's and 80's arcade games instead of the other way round! What next movie versions of old TV ads!?
-
lemme see.... ah yeah. CYNTHIA ROTHROK AND BILLY BLANKS!!! LETS GET READY TO TUMBLE!!!! (no way they could really afford that catchphrase)
-
They should make that into a theologically bizarre action film.
-
What the Satan's name is next? Q-Bert - The Movie? Starring Mike Myers as Q-Bert and Chris Tucker as Coily the snake...
Either this is some kind of spectacular joke or that noise I hear is the plane biting into the bottom of the barrel. -
Bloop!... Bloop!... Blee-bloop!... Bloop!... Blaaap!... (120 minutes later)... Bloop!...Blee-blaaaap!... The End (cue credits)
-
God help us if any word of your post gets back to those "ingenious" Hollywood types! Especially those very special folks who brought us Super Mario Bros, the Movie.
-
Every ticket purchase gets you your own personal "rollerball"! Hot shit!
-
... It's in the nascent test-market stage... there's already a TV show based on a new TV ad... Cavemen. We are, in fact, all doomed!
-
What? LOTR was successful.
-
...and come back from the dead.
-
Ok, this I might actually be interested in seeing.
-
Every ticket purchased get you your very own balsa wood crossbow! Hot Shit!!
-
Me want flying ostriches! Me want...Thunderdome!
-
It's just an uninterrupted shot of a landfill.
-
Goddamn, that one's gonna suck. Wish it was just a joke.
-
I remember what a disappointing piece of shit that game was. It still bothers me 25 years later (jesus, I need a life sometimes)
-
bring it on!
-
You shoot missles that slowly dissolve my cities. I try to shoot donw your missles. We all have fun and eat too much popcorn and throw up in the broken reclining movie theater seat. And again in the bottomless drink holder.
-
because there's alot of "action movie" potential in these old Atari titles and he sure knows hwo to fuck up movies based on 80's nostalgia. Then again, there's a fair amount of attachment between Transformers and "Joust" or "Galaga"
-
it'll be like The Chase only Charlie Sheen is now a bit older.
-
How much do you think an original Joust Arcade game is worth? It is in EXCELLENT condition.
-
BUILD-YOUR-OWN ADVENTURE, fools!!

... takes me back to my youth when Iron Maiden came to town for a concert & did an appearance at a local music store. They had a contest where you were supposed to create artwork featuring their mascot character "Eddie". People were dressed like Eddie, a guy airbrushed Eddie on the hood of his Trans Am, sculptures of Eddie, handmade friggin furniture festooned with the image of Eddie. As for me, I did a quick pen-and-ink drawing in sort of a early-80s Marvel Comics house style of Eddie holding a knife and grinning maniacally (lots of saliva spit-bridges between his teeth) and f***in' WON! Got to hang with Iron Maiden, got autographs and was awarded a Mattel Activision console as a prize. Ah, the 80's... damn I'm glad they're history! (Those Iron Maiden dudes were all right though... nice guys.)
-
Give it up for the Q!
-
people are going to be losing a lot of money on this piece of shit. Oh and KID Z - Fuck a Joust movie... Lets get an Eddie Movie made.
-
"PLOP PLOP FIZZ FIZZ, MOTHERF(Gunshots..)"
-
F**k, Yeah!
-
A lyrical tale of a colony of frogs living in a gully by a busy highway - and one day-dreaming froglet named Frankie, who keeps staring at the highway and imagining that, sometimes, in the seconds when there are no cars obscuring his view, he can see the paradise on the other side... the mythical Pond, with strange, wonderful beings named Lilies, luxurious leaves on which a frog family could happily live their entire life, and clean water... One day, he decides to Cross. He makes it - and returns. But no frog believes the miracles that he describes... Starring Shia la Boeououououf as the voice of Frankie.
-
Majestic castles! Fearsome dragons! Bridges that pass through walls! Neverending mazes! Thieving bats! Swords that look like arrows! This could be the next Lord of the Rings! Peter Jackson, are you listening?

and Peter Scolari!
Steven Seagal versus a mile long one hundred foot high centipede. -
that should have been posted on April 1st...
-
in some movie running around hacking people to hell, Reboot "Halloween", Freddy vs. Jason, Why can't we get an Eddie Movie?!! Set it in London, Eddie can be played by Doug Jones, he's running around killing hookers, and a down on his luck cop has to team up with his estranged heavy metal burnout son to stop him. Base the first movie on the "Killers" album cover, then like the 5th one could be "Somewhere in Time" When they have to resort to Eddie in Space or Future.
-
Rated PG-13
-
Set in a future where Las Vegas has been turned into a giant space station and tank shells can ricochet off of stuff...
-
Tetris VS Tomb Raider...Laura Croft gets Blocked!!!

Fbomb Dropping Red Necks Jousting on Ostriches!!!!
Cannot wait for the trailer park backstory...
Hope Sid Haig is available!!! -
is a good shout, actually. Get Weta on the case and bring the giant radioactive tortoise of doom to the big screen!
Hell, if they're going to make a Sims movie, I'd prefer Joust anyday! -
It's a film about invincibility.
-
contra rulz
or is it l,r,l,r,u,u,d,d,a,b,b,a?? -
u,u,d,d,l,r,l,r,b,a,START. Worked for Lifeforce, too. [p]
I've waste my life... -
They already made a Contra movie... it was called Aliens.
-
Now that I've done the obligatory video game reference, who wants this movie? Why can't we see someone start adapting Dragonriders of Pern for the big screen if you need your fix of guys flying around on winged beasties?
-
(insert uncomfortable silence here)
-
The Ostrich.
-
...i remeber it used to say that after you died in "joust". so i guess the big question is: will the people in this movie talk like thor or not?
-
This generations Brian's Song.
-
damn this is dumb
-
Screw the floating Vegas, I want to see some post-apocolyptic dark ages, Savage land-esque kind of movie. John Milius should direct this and have hundreds or gallons of blood on hand!!!
But it will probably be a bad Uwe Boll movie. If that's even possible. -
. . . I was thinking that I could easily write up a story to support a kick ass Contra movie. I just went to happy hour instead.
-
It took a lot of balls to make that pitch. Or maybe just a lot of drugs.
-
someone already did the Q-bert joke.
-
Remeber that one? Driving in jeeps, rescuing hostages...Taking on monster buildings with a machine gun and winning. I miss the ol' NES days.....
-
You *will* believe a bear can collect magic crystals by running up and down stairs!
-
Also for all those who want to play the egg wave again. For $5 you can't beat that old time arcade memory...
-
starring Zac Efron.
God I hate myself. -
did someone allready mention Ghosts and Goblins?
-
but they better get it out fast. i hear the Weinsteins have GYRUSS in the pipeline. Can this being greenlit be attributed to King of Kong?
-
I own a dedicated Galaga actually.
-
directed my Micheal Bay
-
the role she was born to play.
-
This is the fucking LAMEST idea since- ah screw it, I can't even muster the will to try and be funny.
-
Bad Ass!
-
The huge argument between four buddies about who was going to play the Warrior, that's what. Then who was the Valkyrie, then the Elf. Then (as per) yours truly gets stuck with the Wizard and has to hear "Wizard! Your life-force is draining!" almost continuously for the next 15 minutes.
That and the inpromptu fist-fights that broke out when someone shot a potion or food when you needed it and the game named and shamed them.
-
it'll cost that much to make, I'm thinking.. And Zero in returns.
-
And Wallace Shawn to play the Pterodactyl.
-
Splatterhouse, Bonk's Adventure, and Legendary Axe could actually be made into cool movies. Maybe.
-
a little early for april fools, right....right?
-
Actually, that could work as an animated film. Disney should be all over that!
-
it'll go towards something better than making a pointless atari game...like supporting my lazy ass.
-
On MacMame. It's still one of my favorite games (after Galaga, I suppose).
The MAME version is terrific, and plays well right from the keyboard with no controller need at all.
I KNOW, I KNOW!! They should make a movie based on TRON. I loved that game and it just opens up so many cinematic possibilities...
Has anyone mentioned QBERT? How about Defender, my first true arcade love... Does anyone remember the original CHOPLIFTER for the Apple II? That could be set in like Iraq or Darfur or something for added relevancy... It goes without saying that PACMAN would be like the pinnacle. Peter Jackson could make it for like $500 million, but then just fuck it up. -
Starring Mathew Broderick, Udo Kier and Jeroeme Krabbe.
"Digging Your Way. Summer 2009"
-
"Landing To A Theatre Near You. Summer 2010."
-
Galaga, Defender, Tempest (already suggested), Pole Position, Qbert, the even more obvious Space Invaders and Pac Man, Centipede (like Annaconda crossed with Alien)...
-
Pole Position: Tokyo Drift (my sentiments exactly). Spy Hunter?
-
A Weinstein Bros. movie.
-
I guess it would be all medieval and shit, and these knights would actually fly around on like tamed CGI-Griffins or something. Wait, let me go play a game now...
-
"The detonation begins ...Summer 2009."
-
Directed by Robert Shaye (THE LAST MIMZY).
-
You are the YELLOW knight guy riding like a griffin or maybe a "buzzard" or something. You are fighting this army of RED knights. Oddly, if you kill them by hitting them with your lance a little higher than theirs, the bird they are flying on is unscathed, but the red knight just kinda turns into this egg, which gravity pulls down to the nearest surface and after several seconds hatches back into a red knight guy and gets back on his bird-steed. Or something. If you die, your bird flies away, then you regenerate whole, like you were just beamed down from the Enterprise. When things start to get dull, this really nasty buzzard creature comes at you full-throttle and usually kills you. What this could mean for possible storylines is left as an exercise for the thread.
-
You could just call it mega Man 2, and have the sequel story and everything, that way people would really know you stayed true to the coolest storyline in the series: Robot boy hunts down and destroys 8 super robots and the mad scientist behing them. It would work, because I knew a kid named "Wily" in high school, so it wouldn't be hard to buy a guy named Dr. Wily. You see? OK, I'll take my meds now.
-
Starring John Travolta in drag as the Ladybug and Tom Cruise as a tasty carrot. I miss my Coleco.

Up Next: Bubble Bobble: The Motion Picture
by and nicolas cage as fu manchu
Was there even a storyline in Joust to begin with? Are they just making a fantasy epic with the flying ostriches? Well, maybe they can just make the ostriches like chocobos and it will be closer to Final Fantasy than The Spirits Within.
-
That's what I would call it, anyway. At least, I think it was the Greece level. It was a while back. I could never beat it. It got to the point where I literally ripped that game out of my NES and threw it as hard as I could up against a wall. Didn't break, still worked.
Someone mentioned Jackal. That was my favorite game. Played it until it melted. I beat that without dying once. I wish Colonel Decker was my dad. -

They should make Bad Dudes into a movie
by and nicolas cage as fu manchu
The president has been kidnapped by ninjas. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue the president?
-
And let these guys make it: http://youtube.com/watch?v=SiBER4iVwCw
-
The key word being "might". Or "crazy", im not sure which.
-
Directed by Russell Mulcahy.
-
they cannot get Halo or a video game adaptation NOT directed by the "other" Anderson off the ground, but they somehow managed to convince the suits that flying ostriches PWN!
signs of the times my friends... -
Do it!
-
I guess with that one, the movie progresses until you reach the cave level, at which point nobody ever gets good enough to see how the film ends. Fuck you, creators of Choplifter's 3rd level. Fuck you twice.
-
Did IQ's just drop slightly while I was gone?
-
Lance Finkelstein is an ordinary man, until a talking ostrich lands on his doorstep and tells him that he is the decendant of a great knight named Baron von Joustentein, who used to joust in a tournament known only as "JOUST". Now, Lance, together with his flying ostrich Buddy, has to travel to Romania, where the legendary tournament is set to begin. The prize? The fate of all mankind. LET THE FLAPPING BEGIN!
-
Guys in armor riding on giant Ostrichs fighting over floating Las Vegas. Im there on opening day.
-
Did no one learn the lessons of future movies past? Set this dumb movie 250 years in the future. Or 2500 years. Then a giant flying bird joust in floating Vegas might be more believable.
-
as Q-Bert.
-
Rob Zombie could handle a Zombies at my neighbors or the suburban zombie game on the current consoles.
-
If they made a movie from Pitfall, it would be a poor man's Indy, kinda like King Solomon's Mines.
-
anyone remember this one? Nicolas Cage must fly his star cruiser into the shields of ...some weird ass named empire that floats in space shooting away at the shield. which reminds me why not a BREAKOUT movie? Huh Huh?
-
Starring Ben Stiller and Liam Neeson as the mentor.
-
Starring Louie Anderson as the Marble and the voice of Frank Oz as Moda, the wise old marble.
-
Nooo??
-
Directed by Michael.....oh forget it.
-
A movie based on a horrible game based on a movie.
-
Zaxxon could be filmed entirely at a 3/4 angle, and the camera would slowly pan for the entire running time. The lead characters would move slowly along the whole time to remain in the frame.
Tempest would be filmed entirely with a rotating fisheye lens, from above.
Needless to say, I haven't at all considered what the actual plot of either movie would be, but isn't that standard practice for Hollywood execs? "'What is the movie about?' This 'about' you speak of--it confuses me. Does it have something to do with money?" -
There's your turbo graffix 16 ref.
-
because you demanded it!
Starring: The Rock and John Cena (which would make for a good movie if a director could be found.) -
from Ralph Bakshi's "Wizards". Just sayin'.
-
Blah!@
-
oh shit i did it!
-
a floating Vegas and ostrich thingies? sounds like a lawsuit....
-
Featuring Satan AND Lucifer with some dude running around in his underwear.
-
If for no other reason because it inspired this talkback and gave me 20 minutes of 80s nostalgia listening to people talk about old stand up games. It also reminded me of the Futurama when Fry was fighting the Nintendions 'Space Invaders' style. Reverse direction, Increase speed!
-
"I no care if fag-boys no like my movies. I beat shit from all gay boys who say bad things about Pac Man family and journey to darkness."
-
Crystal Castle The Motion Picture. It comes with a rollerball on the armrest, and you can pretend to move the little bear-dude around and run away from those nasty trees! And..the WITCH... is played by Paris Hilton. Finally... a role suited to her idiotic ways. Because when the Witch gets hit with a hive of wasps it will be HI-larious. Promise. Sweet Jeebus on a pogo stick...when will Hollywood just hire some new talent out there that is struggling to get a movie of quality made and just frakking MAKE ONE THAT DON'T SUCK!?!
-
I've never seen one video game movie that I liked. This will probably be more of the same.
-
This is hands down the funniest talkback in a very long time. The premise of Joust is absurd. As absurd as a flick about Snakes...on a plane.
-
as did BEZERK. Evil Otto rules all you geeks.
-
fuckin' great fun movie.
-
Whoops. Guess there's always "Space Ace".
-
...with Bill Cosby, in a movie called Leonard Part 6. Some bizarre movie where he was riding around on an ostrich. It may or may not have been a remake of Joust...but I never saw it. I might have dreamed it.
-
Oh my GOD. I probably killed about a full year of my life playing that damn game.
-
Sep 04, 2007 5:56:21 PM CDT
Is Weta locked in yet to make the flying ostriches?
by yeah i wrote that
They did make zombie sheep.
-
Tabletop version. Forget where it was, but I remember wasting a whole Fall or so playing that too.
-
These Hollywood bitches no NOTHING about cool video game properties.
-
Sorry, had to get one more in...
-
pre-production. Honestly, I don't really care if it happens or not, but I remember hearing about it a while ago, then it just fell off the map.
-
Galaga was always my favorite, followed by Tempest. Dragon's Lair the movie? That would be great. Qbert? That would look crazy!
-
BE-GIN.
(Whoosh)
(Thud)
HALF. POINT.
(clapclapclap)
-
It'll be on a Friday night, I'll have no date, a 2 liter bottle of Shasta and my all RUSH mix tape.
-
Ah, 80's video games. There will never be any era as simpler or innocent as the 80's for games. Hell, I perfer a movie made from some of the 80's game that movies from some of the more modern games. I can totally see CENTIPEDE and Q-BERT as CGI movie; along the lines of FINAL FANTASY: ADVENT CHILDREN. JOUST as a CGI may work if its not done too cartoony.

-
In two parts.
-
SPACE CADET! Played that on the Commodore version of myself...
-
You know you want it!
-
I thought I'd be the first!!
-
I thought I was the only one that remembered "Combat" ; twas my favorite game as a kid. I like how there are levels where the tanks turn invisible, or the ending few levels where you're a bomber trying to sink ships. :D
-
In theory Joust could make for a cool movie world that would be pretty unique, but the idea that all this nonsense would be 25 years in the future is beyond stupid. There have always been short sighted sci-fi movies, but this one is going to look extra stupid in far less than 25 years.
-
It was exactly the same as Joust, except you could play it on your Apple IIe, as long as you had it saved on a floppy disk.
-
Osama could make a cameo.
-
Don't think I saw that one posted above.
-
BEWARE, I LIVE! RUN RUN RUN! COWARD! ROOOARRRRRGH!!! (Great game, totally impossible to get past the 3rd screen, almost totally impossible to clear the second. Also, THIS is what attacks New York in CLOVERFIELD -- SINISTAR!!!)
-
I think we posted something about SINISTAR at practically the exact same time. Wowzers!
-
...oh wait.and i so would love to see a Robotron movie!
-
games made into movies or movies into games? I lost track.
-
Nuff said.
-
In this drama we see how average people are tricked into paying money for games that are freely available on the web. They hire a low-life loser lawyer and take on a world-dominant corporation showing how the underdog can overcome all obstacles finally freeing "live" so that the average joe can play on-line, for free, like PC players have been doing it since the beginning...
-
put to a roaring score, should be 2 opponents leaping at each other, only to have their lances directly collide, sending each one back to the platform he jumped from unharmed.

Thanks alot I thought I was going to be original...sigh

has had patience beyond patience waiting for his lucky break in Cinema. He fell on really hard times after his venture in the animated world, and now he has paid his price and is ready for redemption. By all things holy, will you please find it in your grace to let Q*bert grace the big screen. Snorks and Octorocks tried to steal his thunder, but there is only one schnozzhopper that will change our world for generations. Thank you Lord for hearing my prayer. Jimbo.

Who doesn't want to see flying ostriches and a floating
by mrmysteryguest
Las Vegas? Nobody, actually. :)
-
Talk about a franchise that sunk with Captian N! If we could ever see an Eggplant Wizard again, my life would be complete. Truly, if you want gold -- this could actually turn film and have enough story to support itself. Better than remaking Jason and the Argonots. WOW CG SKELETONS INSTEAD OF STOP MOTION -- LA DE FRICKING DAH!
-
Admit it, there ain't much to it.
-
Yeah, that was something special wasn't it???
-
Beware, you have to blow into any of the NES based DVD's to make sure they don't play scrambled.
-
Just base it on the game -- Maltov Cocktails. They could never get away with that these days! Gone are my Wonder Years. At least I escaped Bell Bottoms -- until those dumbasses started wearing them in high school.
-
Movie -- Based on a game -- Based on a movie. HAHAHAHA!
-
but takes a lifetime to master type game. The learning curve was levels 1 and 2. Then level 3 starts sending some serious crap your way. By level 5 you better be pretty frickin' good. Beyond that -- Good luck.
-
No, and again, no, Tom.
-
Going back the other way.
Solve all kinds of autistic games. They drop the toothpicks, you count them. They flash up 50 random words for five seconds and you have to make a paragraph. Convince your older brother that K-Mart is the be all end all of places to shop for underwear. Take a wiz in the gas tank of any mini-van that has one of those puzzle piece autism ribbon magnets on the back. Hit on chicks that are 3 grade levels older than you. Use your "power glove" at the Mustang Ranch just outside Reno. -
Wasn't this just on the site a few days ago? Gun or Bomb, that is the question.
-
And I'm spent!
-
I can't believe no-one has mentioned this yet...
-
We all saw the Zelda cartoon and it about maxxed out the non-video game potential. Let it go. Nobody wants them to screw up Zelda. Her and Link would me like mother and son or something screwed up like that. That or they would be from Kansas and whisked away with amnesia to eventually find out they need to get home.
-
"is set 25 years in the future"
"Las Vegas suspended in mid-air"
What the fuck is this? A joke or somethin'? -
THIS SUMMER, WILL TWO MEN BE BAD ENOUGH DUDES TO SAVE THE PRESIDENT?
-
That would be a kick-ass movie! Oh...wait...uh, never mind
-
Oh, wait...no
-
Idea in this kinda obscure game was you were driving along a highway and could jump your car in the air and any other car you bumped into or jumped onto would go careening off in a fiery wreck of shattered glass and twisted steel. Carnage candy on Route 66.

I used to think Joust was the only video game I was
by crichtonastronut
any good at, wich was awsome. Then I found out the machine I was playing on was screwed up so my Ostridge could take almot unlimites hits before dying.
The 80s Flash Gordon almosrt counts as Joust: the movie.
Anyway, could beeither really cool or really bad. Hell, Pirates didn't turn out so bad and it was a Disney ride. -

Stupid studio suits have lost their damn minds. Gladiator meets Mad Max? 25 years in the future on a floating Las Vegas? These assholes need to lay off the coke and whores and leave the creative decisions to people with IQs higher than 75.
