Is it cool to talk about movies based on a fictional video game?

Because The Last Starfighter is loving rad.

The fictional Last Starfighter game in the movie is such a generic stand-in for other space games that I wonder why they didn't license a real one instead. I mean, they could have replaced the game with Galaga or something and BAM!

It also gave us this gem.

The First Person scene in Doom and Silent Hill were fun.

I have a soft spot in my heart for Uwe Boll's masterpiece "Alone in the Dark." There is an earnestness to it. It's like an angry 13 year old's fanfiction that they think is totally rad and also just like this one thing but different enough so it's all original.
