A big problem with the Pacman cars, is that even if joystick skills could translate to real life, YOU DON'T PLAY AS THE GHOSTS. Even if you could learn detective skills from playing the Batman: Arkham games, I wouldn't think that it's going to help you be a better Joker.

Doug was right about one thing about this movie: people do want to like this film. It does have the potential to be a great film, but as long Adam Sandler refuses to realize that his shtick is dull and that he needs to adapt/change up his comedy, this film will remain a shixel in the eyes of everyone. Who agrees with me?

+Frankie Reese As long as Adam Sandler is involved, it won't be good. Seriously, it's just his comedies, THE GUY himself is a lazy slob. He never invest himself in any role wether he plays a manchild, a former football player or anything he's always walking around in pyjama pants, some college t-shirt, he's always living in a huge house (and his job never justifies the house), his wife is always someonen who, in real life, would be waaaay out of his league. They should've just picked somebody else all together, someone who is funny and who actually cares about his craft.

TheShrimp Plaza Agreed. I mean think about it. Why are actors/comedians like Amy Poehler, Ben Stiller, Jim Carrey, Jonah Hill, and Seth Rogen still popular? Because they understand that the same routine they have doesn't work forever. They learn to adapt. Adam Sandler fails to realize that and like you said he's never invested in what he makes. He doesn't give a damn. "As long as I make money I don't care!" Honestly this isn't the worst Sandler film I've seen. Hell it doesn't even make the top 10, but in its own right, it sucks.

I think the hate is partly due to how the "comedy" in this film devolves to the level of "Epic Movie," "Meet the Spartans" and other of those really bad "parody" films. Where they don't actually parody or make fun of anything, they just reference stuff. For example, they'd just go, "hey look, it's the jackasses from Jersey Shore," and show the people from Jersey Shore, and that's the whole "joke." That's pretty much what they do in Pixels. They would point out a video game character or trope and that's the whole "joke."

Toru Iwatani was the best thing about this movie. And I'm not just saying that because he's the creator of Pac-Man and as a gamer I greatly respect him, but his performance was sooo genuine. Him trying to calm Pac-Man down was my favorite scene because I really got into his speech, despite it being pretty generic stuff. He just gave off such a strong feeling that he genuinely cared about his creation.

It makes you feel ashamed if you're a gamer. And that's terrible. Watch "Moviebob's" review of this movie. It's brutal

Yeah, the tipping point for me in Pixels was where the cheat code comes in. The entire last part of the movie hinges on the fact that, a guy, put a cheat code into a car for a character he wasn't even playing as. Cause he was playing as a ghost, so how the fuck would a speed cheat, that you would use as Pac Man, work for the ghost? I mean, obviously the bigger question is how the hell you put a cheat code into a car, but still. The cheat code doesn't even make any damn sense.

I love that idea for a kids movie! I even have an idea for a kids movie that's basically like From Dusk Till Dawn, where it starts off as one thing, and then throughs you off guard with something insane and over the top. Like, it would start off as a slice of life story with kids and talking animals, but then becomes a superhero, alien invasion, action comedy with the kids and animals getting superpowers through alien technology.

I think I can explain how Peter Dinklage's character used the cheat code. He had it written on his sunglasses and interpreted it as driving fast, not teleporting. The film didn't say he teleports. He drives his "ghost-car" very fast to catch up with Pac-Man. And I'll say that maybe he accidentally stumbled onto it as a kid. Now I know this isn't explaining much, but that's what I'm going with.

+Terry Wood At the risk of sounding prejudice towards the vertically challenged, you have to admit that Peter's choices for parts are kind of limited, due to his size. I hate saying that, but it's kind of a fact. Therefore, it's not like he has too many options as an actor. Don't get me wrong, I do think he's talented, when you give him something to work with. Sadly, he didn't have much to work with in "Pixels." Maybe Peter Dinklage hasn't gotten too many offers for parts, so he may have taken the Pixels role for the money. Again, we don't know, but I just think we shouldn't rule out the fact that maybe he's not getting too many parts due to his appearance. As much I hate saying that, it's the truth because if you think about it. Why is that an Oscar caliber actress like Gabourey Sidibe continues to struggle to find parts, while a no talent bitch like Megan Fox is still getting parts? Go figure that one out.

Again: TROPHY. WIFE. I agree that I'm not going to stay up at night over this movie, but it's this one thing that really bothers me. No one mentions how there's the FEMALE CHARACTER who has no purpose other than to be the creepy guy's love interest and is the only video game creation who isn't pixelized. In addition she says nothing and also IS A LITERAL TROPHY. A PRIZE. That is REALLY fucking demeaning. THAT'S what bothers me. She is so easily replaced without a flinch and it's 2015. Have the mass movements of feminism taught nothing?! I'm frightened that this is what some people see women as! I could let the rest of the movie slide but this is what really gets me.

I never understood the whole: "destroyed my childhood" mentality. I mean, I get being angry when that a film, that you wanted to be good, was terrible, but why let it distort your love of the original product? For example the Shaymalan film is bad, really bad, but I still adore Avatar:The Last Airbender, and I still love older episodes of Spongebob. The bad material doesn't degrade the quality of the good material of the franchise, If you don't like newer adaptions then just enjoy what you like, for not a soul is forcing you to watch that terrible Micheal Bay film with Shia Lebouf screaming "OPTIMUUUUUUSSSSS!!"

Exactly my thoughts. For example, my sister was watching an episode of "Zoey 101" (or some show like that) that is supposed to be a parody of "The Breakfast Club." We all hated it and watched the actual movie right after. It's like a healing mechanism (or something like that) for you tend to feel better knowing that the original exists. So if you don't like a remake/parody/whatever but you like the original, then watch/play/read the original.

I think one of the real reasons that we flipped out over this one was because it was the perfect storm of Adam Sandler taking something that all of us loved growing up, classic video games. Something that so many of us hold dear to our hearts and remember so fondly, taking those beautiful memories from our childhood and just shitting on them with a fart joke of a crap Adam Sandler movie. Any of us who loved arcade games inner child just squealed inside when we heard that there was going to be a big budget movie about classic arcade games coming to life and invading the Earth. And then... we discover... it's an Adam Sandler movie. That's what happened.

Let's be honest: all the "outrage" over _Pixels_ really came from old-school gamers (some of them are film critics) who felt that the movie took a dump on their precious Classic games and the whole video game culture.

You can do a review without it, but when something is very obvious in a movie, they don't get just how obvious it is. Even when that thing is so obvious that you don't even need to read the books. It just makes them look dumb.

To Doug and Rob, If you haven't seen Reign over Me yet, you really should. You never mention it at all when talking about his dramatic roles, so I'm assuming you haven't seen it. I feel like it's pretty much the answer to why this movie blew so hard, because that movie already acheived a similar result with a similar idea, but made it a drama instead of a comedy. Whether you end up liking the movie or not, that is one of the first movies that legitimized the portrayal of someone playing a video game in an artistic and emotional way. The way the director came up with the idea to have him playing Shadow of the Collosus and how it ties in, and the sort of loner escapism character Sandler portrays works very well for what it was trying to convey. And Sandler really enjoyed playing that game in real life and taught others how to play. So that's why this movie fell so flat for me, because he as an actor had already done it sooo much better.

I just got back from Pixels. What I can tell you is this: It's not good, but I didn't hate it like everyone else did. From what I've heard from every review I've read, they were pretty harsh on harsh on it.I'd say the positives are visual effects and when the video games are attacking. Everyone in their reviews have immaturely disregard the action sequences and the visual effects due to them being in an Adam Sandler movie. Plus there are cool cameos by a lot of 80's property.But the negatives are it's still an Adam Sandler movie with jokes that don't work and it doesn't know what it want to be. There are times where it's tries to have kid friend moment, but then it turns into a adult joke.I'd say your better off renting it at RedBox and skip to the action scenes. So yeah, it's a rental. It wasn't good, I wasn't mad like everyone else did.

+Helmslock Just because other movies aren't as bad doesn't make this movie any better. Plus most game movies, including the ones by Uwe Boll, are *adaptations* of video games. Pixels is a movie that's *about* video games, not based on them. Movies about video games have usually been very good. Wargames, The Last Starfighter, Tron, Wreck-It Ralph, etc.

Thanks to Doug and Rob for sharing their thoughts. It seems to me that Sandler does not make the distinction between changing the premise and changing the story. Pixels is basically "Adam Sandler story with old video game characters and stuff". He changes his settings, but he doesn't change his plots (in recent productions, anyway), and that's his way of doing "new things". That's... not how it's done.

Many bad movies make cynical use of particular subject matter to generate profit, but because Pixels used things that Moviebob loves and hold very dear, it pissed him off more than most bad movies do.
