The Games Factory Where Mario, Tetris, Sonic And Pong Were Born

Thanks to @dg_4und20 I found some pictures of the factory where the classic computer games Super Mario, Tetris, Sonic and Pong were created. Surprisingly development wasn’t as advanced as I thought it was in those days. But what do I know, right? The pictures look great and the Internet doesn’t lie.

Top Secret Movie

I recently found out that still not everybody knows the great movie Top Secret. The only movie where the station leaves the train! The movie stars Val Kilmer who plays a rock’n'roll star who eventually helps to free a scientist from a prison in East Germany. The movie premiered in 1984 and was written, directed and produced by the famous trio David Zucker, Jim Abrahams and Jerry Zucker who also directed movies like Airplane, Naked Gun 1, 2, 3 and partially Scary Movie 3 and 4. Top Secret is a classic spoof movie with fresh ideas and some elaborately made scenes like the Swedish book store or the fight at the end of the movie. Even though it’s more than 25 years old its simply hilarious. So whether you’ve seen the the movie or not you have to watch at least the first collection of best scenes. Enjoy!!

Great Trailer

Two recent articles linked in the news section of traileraddict.com drew my intention to a very funny and unconventional trailer that was described as one of the best trailers so far. And it’s true it’s great particularly the fact that except for the last seconds there’s no clue what the movie is about. But watch for yourselves.
