Video Trifecta: Max Payne, The Force Unleashed, Absolute Mind-Shattering Insanity
Posted at 4:07 PM Jul 10, 2008
Okay, I feel compelled to post the Max Payne movie trailer because it's a movie based on a videogame, which is TR's bread (while movies based on comics are the butter). But it look so uninterestingly bad that I beg all of you to go watch the R-rated trailer for Black Dynamite instead—especially you movie nerds).
• If you remember my rant about that Clone Wars clip early this week, I submit this video (you have to watch it at EW.com) of The Force Unleashed videogame as proof that I am not just someone who bitches about everything. This trailer makes me love the game—between slicing the AT-ST in half and throwing a lightsaber through a tree into a wookiee's head—although I'm sure the story will be as dumb as anything else. So it's not me. It's them.
• OH GOD NO THIS ISN'T HAPPENNIIIINNGG NOOOOOO

I prefer the one where the bears sing London Bridge by Fergie.
Posted 07/10/2008 at 03:29:18 PMFrom what I have read the Force Unleashed has a better storyline than 5 of the 6 Star Wars films... (you better know the best!)
I really hope this is true, I am 10 kinds of excited to play the fuck out of this game this fall.
Posted 07/10/2008 at 03:45:33 PMGood lord that is terrifying.
Is there a single child alive who found the Rockafire Explosion or any of the animatronic characters at Chuck-E-Cheese amusing rather than scary and threatening?
Posted 07/10/2008 at 03:58:07 PMI prefer the Danzig/Shakira version over the Showbiz puppets...
Posted 07/10/2008 at 04:33:53 PMSadly, the robotic mouse is a better singer than Shakira. Not that that's a difficult accomplishment or anything.
Also, how was I not creeped out by that shit at 7 years old?

I've never seen the Rock-afire band there before, but up here in Canada we had a similar thing within a chuck e. cheese-esk place called Wonderland...and the curtain would not only come up, but before they replaced them, the whole band would suddenly lurch forward a good 4 feet and launch into a jumbled sing song routine...@_@

Posted 07/10/2008 at 11:28:52 PMThat Force Unleashed trailer is pretty damn cool. If i owned an up-to-date gaming system, I would be tempted to get it.

Posted 07/11/2008 at 05:53:46 AMA documentary is coming out this Fall about obsessive Rocka Fire fans.
No. Joke.
Me and my friends would always go on stage with those singing animals and pretend to beat them up. I got kicked out of a Tulsa Chuck E Cheese for breaking a finger off of a singing pig. That was one great birthday party.
