Tetris Movie in the Works: Joins Resident Evil, Assassin's Creed, Lara Croft and Angry Birds on
It's not a hoax: There will indeed be a Tetris movie. And no, it is not about shapes and lines, as a lot of skeptics were predicting.

As one of the most popular games ever, Tetris is a puzzle game that was started in the '80s by developer Alexey Pajitnov, a programmer based in the Soviet Union. It was easy to understand and easy to learn,

Tetris: The Movie and 5 other video games that would be better with popcorn
Remember when you were a kid and all you ever dreamed about was that one day, in the distant future, you'd finally get to see your favourite game Tetris in the cinema? No? Well... Tetris’ 30th birthday brings with it the bizarre (yet slightly awesome) news that the classic video game is being made into a movie. The CEO of the company behind the film, Threshold Entertainment Group, told the Wall Street Journal that "this isn't a movie with a bunch of lines running around the p
A Tetris movie, seriously? Hollywood’s brand obsession continues
Here’s the upside of “Tetris: The Movie,” or whatever they’re going to call it: Devoted fan-boys and fan-girls won’t go berserk over character casting or plot reworks, like they do for any Jane Austen or Batman reboot. . . because Tetris doesn’t have any plot or characters! Well, there’s the downside, too. In announcing plans to adapt the geometry-based video game — perhaps the first real addiction of Gen-X and Millenials — Threshold Entertainment brings us latest proof of cr
Videogame Tetris to be made into sci-fi film
The classic videogame Tetris, in which players slot a cascade of tumbling blocks together, is being turned into a science-fiction movie. Tetris has been a mainstay of computer gaming since it was created 30 years ago, but the shape-slotting puzzle may not seem like an obvious subject for a big-screen adaptation. Threshold Entertainment said in a statement that it was partnering with The Tetris Company to develop the film. "Everyone knows that Tetris is one of the best known,

The online response to the news, first reported by the Wall Street Journal, was marked by a mix of confusion, skepticism, and derision. How could the movements of a bunch of faceless, lifeless objects be the
5 other puzzle game movies we‘d like to see besides ‘Tetris’
First, there was the G.I. Joe movie; then, the board game Battleship went big-screen, followed by 2013’s “The Lego Movie” — and now, from the depths of a Hollywood culture that hasn’t met a children’s toy it can’t adapt to the big screen, we’re getting a Tetris movie. The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday that the company behind Tetris is working with Threshold Entertainment, the company that adapted the “Mortal Kombat” game for the big screen in the ’90s, to make a “very
Someone Is Making A 'Tetris' Movie. No, Really. A 'Tetris' Movie.
There's an old cliche that Hollywood is running out of ideas. That's not entirely accurate. They have a whole vault of ideas. They just seem to be running out of good ideas. How else do you explain movies likeBattleship, the RoboCop remake, and anything involving Johnny Depp post-Pirates of Caribbean? One genre that's been consistently bad are remakes of video games. The two just don't belong together. Watching a movie based on a video game is like hanging out with an only ch
