Great idea for possibly the worst video game movie ever.
Picture this........
a washed up old computer guy, goes home to a lonely apartment
years later he had lost his whole family due to a tetris addiction,
finds an army general sitting in his home,,,,,,,,,,
the world is about to be destroyed by thousands of asteroids.
But they found if you link them up together in rows they will connect magnetically and explode into nothing.
they have a space ship outfitted to control the asteroids...........
He is the only one left with the tetris skills needed
he will need space training, but more than that he will need to play a game that ruined his life,
that he swore he would never play again......
can he do it?
Can he safe the world?
We need to make this movie!!!!!!
or I need sleep.

And Denise Richards can play the astrophysicist who no one believes.
Given how well she was cast in The World is Not Enough.

OH THAT'S GOOD!!!!!
I didn't get dinner yet it's 4pm
Denise Richards should always be cast as an astrophysicist, I can't think of what else she would even play in a movie.
Danny Glover is perfect
and I thought Haden Christensen would rule, he hasn't messed up a scifi franchise in quite a while.

Man I lol'd a lot at that
Any suggestions for directors?
JJ Abrams for the lens flares?
Sam Neill as some kind of maverick guy? Uncertain as to what he actually does apart from being a maverick.

This was made well before Battleship: The Movie was an actual thing.

you need a maverick
and JJ Abrams makes sense
Although Michael Bay comes to mind as well
I was hoping for some gigantic and confusing action scenes where there is no sense of scale and you can't really figure out if people are running towards or away from anything
Unfortunately since I made the original post neither one of them has called me

Why not just film James Cameron taking a shit and name it after something people remember from the 80's?

Sounds amazing, I'd buy that on VHS in a heartbeat.
Isn't there a Futurama-episode where Fry needs to use his Asteroids skills to beat aliens?

Well, every sci-fi related joke is probably a rip-off of Futurama. You still made me lol, dear.

Have you seen the movie Undercover Brother? Denise Richards can also play a white she-devil.

Think the Futurama episode has his Space Invader skills.
