Dwayne Johnson and a giant gorilla to star in arcade adaptation Rampage
Not to be confused with the Uwe Boll vigilante movie from 2009, Rampage is an ’80s arcade game where players, in the guise of either George (an off-brand King Kong), Lizzie (an off-brand Godzilla), or Ralph (a, um, giant werewolf) compete to destroy a major American city. As the game goes on, the cities get less major, the obstacles get more difficult, and players learn to empathize with the creatures, asking themselves if perhaps the real monsters here are the tiny pixelated men shooting at them in tiny pixelated tanks. It’s practically plotless and really fun, meaning that it might make a decent Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson movie.
