Olivier Pauwels
Cinema and video games have inspired each other since the advent of gaming in the early 70s. Often, during the decades that followed, from modest films to big Hollywood blockbusters across all genres, certain directors didn't hesitate to give arcade machines a prominent spot in their movies.
There are many bridges between the worlds of cinema and video games, so much so that entire films are now dedicated to video game successes, like Pixels, or stem directly from them as evidenced by Street Fighter, Rampage, Mortal Kombat... after having made the heyday of arcades for many years.
This book focuses on the "roles" given to certain arcade games in films where they are not necessarily expected. From Soylent Green to Click to Over The Top, all these cinematic experiences with different styles have offered viewers some memorable sequences by offering an anecdotal scene or a moment of glory granted to a famous video game.
