RA3 is the worst of the RA series. If it weren’t for the notoriously bad AI pathfinding the original RA would be the best but RA2 has great pathfinding making it the beat out of the three. The original CnC, despite the fact the AI cheats, is one of the best of the Tiberium timeline which the original RA soviet campaign is the prologue to.

They each have verying forms of "giving Shatner a run for his money, but from a Japanese actor" levels of intentional and unintentional camp. Given Morita was firstly and chiefly a comedian makes this even more hilarious. Tagawa and Takei are serious actors who have excellent comedic timing from an over the top standpoint quite similar to Jerremy Irons. If you had those three playing as part of a "council of evil mages" in some D&D spinoff, I'd legit throw my money at you for the epic levels of villain camp alone. For a somewhat, but not actually, more "serioius" take on this particular trope, see Alan Rickman. I've love to see some alternative world where Alan Rickman (RIP you tea making badass!), Morita {RIP you comedic genius!}, Tagawa, and Irons star in a film together. With that level of epic, at any moment I'd be waiting for Machiko Soga [possibly voiced by Barbara Goodson] to pop out with possibly Arleen Sorkin playing an old Harley Quinn, with perhaps as some DC live action adaptation or fantasy film mashup of WB movies, or another Spectre film for Bond. Like, any of these actors I can see uttering, "I was curious to see what kind of man you were. I thought there may be even a place for you with SPECTRE. But, it appears that I was mistaken. I misjudged you, Mr. Bond. You have fallen into my trap. Now... [cue villain monologue." the only thing that film would be missing is Mike Myers PLAYING A REFORMED DOUGLAS POWERS alongside maybe Jim Carrey. Hmm... I guess we know who they will revive for 10th installment in Paramount's Sonic the Hedgehog film. 🤣

There needs to be a new C&C game. I miss cutscenes and stories like these

[@liquidmang]

Mr Sulu, Scorpion and the old man from big trouble in little china pulling the strings behind President Schillinger... I got to play this game

[@SerathDarklands]

Holy shit that's a stacked cast. JK Simmons, George Takei, Peter Stormare, AND Jonathan Pryce?

[@NKGAMING-ri4qm]

they should make these games into a actual tv show or movie

[@jtgd]

I love how theres a random 3 second black and white scene

[@michaelwestmoreland2530]

The amount of money slung at the FMV actors in this game was Version 0.5 of the Avengers.

[@moretoknowshow1887]

J. Jonah vs Sulu, theres a matchup i've always wanted to see!

[@danjohnston9037]

This is a cut scene from a game ?? out of touch boomer is amazed

[@AFGuidesHD]

yes

[@shotgunraingk]

Specifically a series of real time strategy games that are known for their live-action cutscenes (usually a bit more goofy then this more serious scene). This one was released about 2008 and is EXTREMELY funny because a few of the actors realize the script is a bit cheesy and they roll with it 110%.

[@420WILD]

I'm thrilled by all the big name actors in this. NICE.

[@NekoHibaCosplay]

I swear to God, Command and Conquer cutscenes were dripping gold with this stellar cast

[@BGRUBBIN]

ah the old days when actors thought games were stupid and never took this seirously. thank you for this gem!

[@marcuslegion3654]

The amount of legendary actors in this video game is amazing

[@treyowen9213]

My god, Cave Johnson became president at last!

[@perizzasalem4994]

What would Tim Curry do?

[@Mtaalas]

I love how goofy all of this is. Exactly as it should be :D Red Alert was all about fun.

[@ShrivelledHeartSoftware]

One of the best cutscenes ever

[@scotty28653]

George Takei: I must go now and commit seppuku after I eat some chicken fly lice.... (Yes I know it's a Chinese/Japanese clash) Lay off me I'm trying here. :)

[@bigginsd1]

It was amazing the coordination involved to get all these great actors simultaneously at their career nadir to accept such a cod ordinary script.

[@namelessking111]

I came from "You are made of stupid" and didn't know this was some legit video game cutscene lol

[@izhardrawings6042]

Best👍👍👍

[@bedelian]

This is such a chaotic combination of actors.

[@iongeneral]

We need to see all of these in-action as they happen. The movie scenes done like this in one 'movie' video is fantastic! @AFGuidesHD please do this.

[@frozenlake1215]

JK Simmons, Jonathan Pryce, Peter Stormare, George Takei... unbelievable

[@pzza1097]

1:23 When you really go into a diabetic coma

[@MalamiteLtd]

And George Takei gives the shogunate to Scorpion

[@Knight7562]

damn they predicated the future

[@DouglasJohnson.]

Peter Stormare, Jonathan Pryce, J.K. Simmons and George Takei? Impressive cast.

[@asdqwe7583]

22:46

[@guavamax420]

In an alternate universe, Cave Johnson survived Moon Rock Poisoning and became president of the US

[@saintricardo8746]

Holy crap, I never realized how heavy the casts are in this game

[@h0rn3d_h1st0r1an]

that is one hell of a youtube title there my friend
