More of a Cinemassacre film than an AVGN film.

That's really the problem with this movie. Had it not been about the AVGN at all, or gaming, it might have been more acceptable as a cheesy cult film about UFOs and big monsters junk.

The problem with this as an AVGN film is that it's only truly about the AVGN for the first like 20 minutes, and in the credits roll. It's barely even a video game movie. For the most part, the game references are just a shell for the UFO and gov't conspiracy plot.

For me, based on the opening of the film, I was expecting something like The Wizard meets Gamestop and corporate greed. I envisioned he'd be on a quest to discover the ET carts that was enforced on him after signing into a bad corporate contract over his reviews that forced him to do the task for the purpose of shilling their new crappy game, and the bulk of the quest would be just getting to the landfill.

Along the way he'd get sidetracked with having to be forced to play bad games to get out of situations, etc. For example, they'd run out of gas and he'd meet some weirdo out in the boonies of Arizona who was an AVGN fan, and he makes a deal to fill up his tank if he can beat him at Cheetahmen 2 or whatever. Then after a few different actual bad GAME-related side quests, he'd finally get there, and that scene where the corporation was already there and waiting promoting it would happen. Keep in the Keith Apicary scene (which was great).

All the while throughout the film, AVGN would be resistant to review it and fall into the corporate trap, but in the end he'd realize that suffering through bad games and reviewing them for fans was a good thing and it inspired people to remember even the bad games, blah blah blah. Big speech like in the credits roll. The end.

THAT would have been an AVGN movie.
