Pixels is a science-fiction action comedy film released in 2015 and co-produced by Sony Pictures and Happy Madison Productions. Based on the 2010 short film of the same name, the film stars Adam Sandler as Sam Brenner, a down-on-his-luck former arcade champion and home theater installer who, through a series of events, is hired by the US military to train a group of old-school arcade players in fighting an alien race that is attacking Earth with technology inspired by 1980s arcade games, such as Donkey Kong and PAC-MAN .
The film was critically panned, with reviewers criticizing the performances, humor, product placement, execution, and dialogue, although the soundtrack, originality, and visuals were praised by some. The film was also a box office disappointment, grossing 245ドル million USD[24] on a budget of between 88ドル million and 129ドル million USD.
[edit ]
The film begins with Sam Brenner playing the original Donkey Kong game and losing a championship match to Eddie Plant (Peter Dinklage), who uses a cheat code (despite the fact that the actual game does not feature cheat codes and doing so would be counter-productive for an arcade game). Donkey Kong haunts Brenner as "the one game he sucks at".
When the "arcaders" are called in to train United States Navy SEALs to play arcade games, Ludlow Lamonsoff (Josh Gad) wears a shirt depicting Small Mario's jumping sprite from Super Mario Bros.
Later in the film, an alien that has taken a form based on Mario's sprite from Donkey Kong can be seen running and jumping across a street, although none of the main characters are seen interacting with him.
The film's climax has the cast face the leader of the aliens, who has taken a form based on Donkey Kong and is on a re-creation of 25m, with captives on the same platform Pauline is held captive on in Donkey Kong. As Donkey Kong attacks the group, Brenner has a breakdown when he cannot figure out Donkey Kong's pattern and his insecurity over not being able to win the game gets to him. One of the captives, Matty van Patten (Matt Lintz), then reveals that Plant cheated, giving Brenner the confidence he needs to get to the top and defeat Donkey Kong using a hammer.
Production[edit ]
The original script of the film did not feature Donkey Kong, but he was included after meeting with Nintendo and convincing the company Donkey Kong would be "treated with respect".[25] A deleted post-credits scene was going to include a sequence where Mario stands on top of the Washington Monument as "the last remaining video game character/alien preparing to wreak havoc on Earth". The scene was cut because it did not test well.[26]

Notes[edit ]
- Eddie Plant is a caricature of many well-known gamers,[62] including Billy Mitchell, the controversial and then-current world record-holder for the arcade version of Donkey Kong and PAC-MAN.
- One of the posters depicts Donkey Kong attacking the city despite never doing so in the film (although he does in the short film).
