From worstpreviews, Universal Pictures recently announced that it would turn the classic arcade game "Asteroids" into a movie. IGN has now caught up with producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura to get some details.
"It's funny because people say there's nothing in the game, but that's not entirely right," he explained. "I was attracted to Asteroids, plain and simple, because I think what it tells you is that there's going to be this big thing in space."
He continued: "We've crafted a really strong, deep mythology for the thing. Without divulging too much about it, it's two lead characters - two brothers - who have to go through a seminal experience to figure out their relationship, against this huge backdrop."
So how will the game's point-and-shoot gameplay be included? "Well, you'd better have some guys in spaceships blowing stuff up or else you haven't honored the fun of Asteroids," di Bonaventura replied.

"I was attracted to Asteroids, plain and simple, because I think what it tells you is that there's going to be this big thing in space." In a just world someone would have kicked this guy in the testicles the moment that sentence was completed. That's the single most retarded thing I've ever heard in my life.

Will someone please shoot this guy in the head or do I have to do it myself?
