The original ‘Pixels.’

Apparently this is what the big budget movie was based off of.

Two and a half minutes, turned into… OK, I shouldn’t be mean. I haven’t seen the full movie.  Howard Tayler, who has seen it, indicated that it was not actually horrible – as long as you can accept that you are watching a movie where it’d be best if you decide to turn off certain ‘logic circuits’ in your heard before you sit down. Still… I can’t help but think that maybe I already have seen the movie, now that I’ve watched this…

The… the… the Pixels trailer.

After this trailer was done, I managed to get half the theater laughing with a perfectly-timed “But that’s just… wrong.” I am ever-so-slightly immodestly proud of that. Because, really, this is just wrong.

The terrifying thing is, somewhere in the depths of that trailer are the hints of a movie that doesn’t actually suck. I don’t believe that they made that movie. But they might have. It’s the not knowing that’s the trouble.
