By InCinemas / 20 May 2015 (Wednesday)
Sony Pictures released a new trailer for Adam Sandler's video game movie, Pixels!
It gets pretty crazy when these classic arcade game characters descend to Earth with a vengeance.
The sci-fi comedy features an alien invasion with iconic gaming characters such as Pac-Man, Donkey Kong and Centipede. Based on a popular short film, the movie also stars Kevin James, Peter Dinklage and Josh Gad.
[Synopsis]
Intergalactic aliens misinterpret video-feeds of classic arcade games as a declaration of war against them and attack the Earth, using the games as models for their various assaults. President Will Cooper (James) has to call on his childhood best friend, '80s video game champion Sam Brenner (Sandler), now a home theater installer, to lead a team of old-school arcaders (Dinklage and Gad) to defeat the aliens and save the planet. Monaghan plays the team's unique weapons specialist.
Pixels is slated to open InCinemas 13 August 2015!
