"Pixel Wars": How can a playful movie be so playful? !

"Big fat became the president of the United States; Four Eyes was doing scientific research in the basement; I was repairing electrical circuits in the community - we all have a bright future!"

Looking at all the obscenity novels on the Internet, what do I do when I go back to the Ming Dynasty Eunuchs, mecha warriors, game masters breaking into the Three Realms, etc., are all writing the story of a game house suddenly entering the game world one day, passing the test, marrying Bai Fumei, and reaching the pinnacle of life. Has Hollywood also been captured by the game house? After more than 30 years of confusion, the e-sports player who dreamed of marrying Madonna actually hooked up with Lieutenant Colonel Beautiful with his "understanding of the game" and "good personal relationship with the president" and became a hero who saved the world. What an exciting thing this is!
However, after looking at the film, the few game segments that can resonate with the post-80s generation are not enough for the length of the trailer. In addition, due to copyright and other reasons, some classic games are not involved. Or in a flash, it always makes people feel that the taste is not enough, and it is not enough to watch. The remaining 90-odd minutes were spent making fun of the president's IQ and insulting alien IQs. The fat man who was next to the e-sports master turned into the president of the United States, and his limited vocabulary allowed him to be closer to ordinary voters. When the aliens invaded the earth in an illogical and unreasonable way, he thought of his childhood playmates Brenner, the dwarf criminal Eddie, and Ludlow with four eyes, and formed them into the strongest team in the universe—— The players' alliance, launched a counterattack against the aliens, and finally won.
The attitude of the producer shown in the film is exactly the same as the state of the aliens in the film. It is clear that they will destroy the earth, burn, kill and loot, but they don't use the powerful conventional photoelectric energy weapons. They have to come up with something to eat. Bean man, he still needs three wins in five games to give humans a chance. The plot of the movie is even more so: how did the game goddess with the last four eyes become human? How did it become Q Bert? How did QBet become a goddess again? ? ? How did the child born again become Q Bert? ? ? ? This series of transformations in quality and energy is really amazing, and only Brother Four Eyes can accept it and still enjoy it.
But then again, this is itself a sci-fi, fantasy, fantasy, and fantasy funny movie. It doesn't have to be taken too seriously. Besides, we can also see self-mockery, inspiration, hard work and reform in it. . . . . . But I still feel that if such an imaginative, novel and nostalgic "children's play" movie can be shot with less play, it will be a good play.

    You can take a look. Not as good as "Invincible Destruction King"

    It’s not that the post-80s have little memory of the ancient arcade, but as a fan of the Cairo game company, I don’t want to talk about the details of this movie.
