All Video Game movies suck…

Or perhaps not.


A few days ago this little number hit the web, and I have got to say, it’s one of the best fan films I’ve ever seen. I do not what is more impressive, the CG animated robots, the orchestrated soundtrack, or the fact that it is actually feature length. Sure it’s cheesy, but it’s cheesy on purpose. The story follows the game pretty closely so it’s obviously full of camp. A lot of the dialogue is genuinely witty though, and it's pretty well acted.



Here’s something to think about. Freaking Super Mario Brothers cost 42 million dollars to make, and this film was funded out of the crews’ pockets! The movie is completely a labor of love, these guys have nothing to gain from it.



Since Megaman is the intellectual property of Mr. Inafune, the team can not technically even make money off of the film. However, they CAN make money off of the soundtrack by Mr. Daniel James. The 31 track Soundtrack is up for download here and they are gladly accepting donations. They even have it in FLAC! Come on!

The film can be found here, give it a watch friends.
