Everyone needs a vacation sometime -- especially monsters who make their living working in the hospitality industry. Though you wouldn't necessarily expect a group of vampires and other ghouls to hop on a cruise ship, that's exactly what happens in Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation.
The video "Pantone Pixels," published in 2011, was an independent art project that used a swath of colours to illustrate a picture of the creator's parents. Last week, Vimeo took it down. Turns out it was too similar to "Pixels," a 2015 movie starring Adam Sandler.
As you have likely heard, Pixels is a bad movie, almost pleasingly stupid. After watching it last night, I had more fun retelling the plot to my wife, who had never heard of the movie, than I did sitting through Pixels. I am now going to spoil it, all of it, so that you don't go see it.
Surprising absolutely nobody, I'm sure. Here's a trailer for Pixels, that movie where aliens mistake video games as a declaration of war, and Adam Sandler breathlessly says the names of a couple of video game franchises.
Sony's big screen adaptation of Patrick Jean's outstanding games-versus-real-life animated short scored a trio of new posters today, evoking far greater majesty than a movie starring Adam Sandler has any right to.
Why are movie tie-in video games generally horrible? Maybe we're starting with the wrong movies. The folks at CineFix give Adam Sandler's golfing epic Happy Gilmore the 8 Bit Cinema treatment, and the result is magical.
While the sequel to River City Ransom is still in development, the folks behind the 8-bit Cinema series resurrected the classic NES beat 'em up for a crossover clip with Happy Gilmore, an Adam Sandler movie from 1996.
