Those live-action Sonic The Hedgehog movies were decently fun (and we’re obviously dying to see Shadow shoot people in the third one), but they did, unfortunately, convince Hollywood that there is some money to be made with big-screen adaptations of classic video games—we have no objections to Ben Schwartz, but we can’t help but point out that Chris Pratt’s Super Mario wouldn’t be happening if not for him and his Sonic voice. The latest video game to get picked up by Hollywood is Pac-Man, with a story from The Hollywood Reporter saying that publisher Bandai Namco is working with production company Wayfarer Studios on some kind of live-action adaptation of the old arcade game.
