It's one thing to try to translate a video game plot and characters into a movie, but movies that are about
the culture of video gaming, the people who play them, and what it's like to be stuck in one are an altogether
different animal. Many such movies were released in the 1980s, coincidentally around the same time as the video
game crash that threatened to destroy this nascent industry forever.
Vinnk and SeanOrange reminisce about Scott Pilgrim, TRON, The Wizard, The Last Starfigher, Cloak and Dagger,
and War Games: when we saw them, what kind of impact they had, and if we'll ever see their like again.
And, look -- most of them had better reviews than movies adapted from actual video games!
