Okay, so not really really. But why not? If they can do a series on grown up Street Fighters or make a movie trailer for Minesweeper, then why not Tetris?
Black20 gives us this insane vision of what a Tetris movie would be like with this Tetris - The Movie trailer. If you would've asked me to create a Tetris movie concept, I would have never come up with the piloted tetrominoes concept. Hats off to the creators! I wonder if Alexey Pajitnov has seen this.
From the video post:
This is Mike O'Gorman's concept that I directed and edited. Mike wrote the script and even built large model Tetris blocks that we shot against green screen. I thought we could pull off the special effects if we made them highly stylized. No 3-D animation was used in this piece. Just models, 2-D animation and green screen. We were going for a Tron/Sin City look.
What do you think? Would the Greatest Videogame of All Time become the Greatest Movie of All Time if it was to be made? If you were a tetromino pilot, which shape would you fly?
That was damn entertaining.
I'd totally watch that if it were real.
...then again, I'm a sucker for horribly cheesey movies that I can get a few cheap laughs out of.
Why is it that these ghetto movie trailers are almost invariably better than the big budget movies they spoof? And why are most of you guys being so negative to this? This was fucking awesome.

Anyways, I would fly one of the T shaped pieces.
