Satchel: Rob! You a got a new movie in the mail! Bucky: What is it? Satchel: Uh... "The Tempest." Bucky: Pfff. Yet another movie based on a video game. Rob: It's shakespeare, Bucky! Satchel: You're just mad 'cause no one wanted that script you wrote based on pong! Bucky: Technically, Spielberg hasn't got back to me yet, forget home, Steve, phone Bucky! Rob: You're still mad about Spielberg not buying your pong adaption? Ha ha! Bucky: Hey, he did "jaws" and that wasn't even a video game! Rob: You can't make a movie out of pong, Bucky. Bucky: Oh yeah? What part of hit the title character with boards for 90 minutes do you not think works as a movie? I'd cast Jackie Chan as pong. The man knows how to take a punch. Satchel: And vinnie Jones could be a board!

Kristen Stewart and Keanu Reeves as the boards. They’ve got the dramatic range for it.

you say you’re only a titular character ‘cause you’re bored with 60 minutes?

Pong sounds like a game made out of the old Punch and Judy shows, where they hit each other with slap-sticks for the duration of the playlets. The full show takes over an hour, so yeah.

“Play The Tempest in the Park,” read the sign. So, I got a pocket full of quarters, and I headed to the park. I didn’t have a lot of money, but I brought everything I made. I had a callus on my finger, and my shoulder was hurting too…

As a former English major and old-school videogame player, I would love the first two panels on a coffee mug or shirt or something. Just another little throwaway gem in the world of Bucky.

Bucky does have a point. Jackie Chan’s Drunken Monkey is amazing and would fit right in as the title character trying to avoid being bopped and bopping in return.
